I LOVE THIS STARBUCKS. Everyone is so pleasant and nice. And most remember my order. If I dont order my usual grilled cheese they ask, "No grilled cheese today?" Love them. I hope they go back to opening earlier again!

I go to Starbucks on Plaza, it's the best, the fastest, the cleanest. The drinks are good occasionally I get food it's hot and delicious. The line is long usually after 6:30 but they knock it out quickly. I also tip.

This Starbucks is better than the one in the Popeye's Chicken shopping Center because they always run out of stuff and the drive thru line creates traffic in the parking lot. The customer service is real good at this Starbucks.
