Starbucks - Junction One

Drive thru is always pretty quick, in store orders not as quick but understandable (especially during rush hour). Lovely atmosphere and seating, plenty of places to charge phones or laptops. Wi-fi is decent as well (i remember around 10mb/s). Drops during busy periods. Food is typical Starbucks scran.

Although a drive through and although there is a sit in Starbucks only a few 100 yards away there is still a reasonable amount of seating to be had here. The only issue I would have with it is that because it is mainly drive through you sometimes have to wait to get your order taken. That being said like all Starbuck you know what you are going to get and the quality of the coffee etc

Called into the drive thru for a sit in and was served by Laura. Explained that two of us were dairy free and ordered a soya hot chocolate for my daughter. Laura explained that there was dairy in the hot chocolate and that want her getting sick. Her colleagues told her the hot chocolate was vegan but when checking the book it did indeed have dairy in it. We have been going here for ages and that is the first time someone checked or advised we couldn't have it. Massive thank you Laura. All the food was lovely and prepared in great time.

I love this Starbucks! Their other branch at The Junction is okay, but for me it is always freezing if you dine-in! So bring a duvet with you! BUT the drive through branch is awesome. The experience is different as it isn't as dark in terms of environment, more open plan. The staff are great. Ordering in the app is perfect for any branch obviously and I love using the drive through at times too. Only blessing from lockdown. I have never used the "drive through" option so much in my life. In fact the staff at this Starbucks drive through were so kind and gracious. One time I got to the window that I realized that I forgot to order, (Chatting with my mum and following the car in front 😂). So they took my order asked me to park and they brought out my order to the car.

Staff are always be happy and smiling. Always so helpful. Place is usually busy but not a long wait, staff are efficient in delivering your coffee quickly and hot. Place is contemporary and plenty of lighting. Enough space for a cosy table for two or a group. Soft music in the background. Toilets have always been clean on my visits and are checked regularly. Staff are always on hand if you need anything. There is disabled parking.
