Starbucks - Hopkinton

This Starbucks always feels a bit chaotic, and it often takes a while to place an order, even through the app. The food is decent, and the coffee drinks are good. I'm not sure if it's just a particularly busy location or if they're understaffed, but be prepared for a wait if you're stopping by for a quick visit.

The timing of the orders was a bit slow, but it felt like they were a bit understaffed given the volume of business they had. However, I had the pleasure of meeting a really friendly employee yesterday; I believe her name was Amelia, or maybe Amy. I'm grateful that the place still has warm and welcoming staff, in contrast to the indifferent workers you might find at a fast food chain like McDonald's.

The barista was extremely helpful, and her coffee is perfect every time—never burnt or stale, always fresh. I particularly enjoy the egg and cheese on her sourdough toast.
