Starbucks - Woodinville

Goran is amazing! Always so happy and helpful! I wish I could have given him a tip, bit apparently that isn’t allowed? I even asked if I could just write a card for him and I wasn’t able to. Too bad. He is truly the best and exactly the type of person you want to meet when youre getting your morning coffee!!!!

Unfortunately I didn't catch my barista's name today (Saturday, 10/23, around 4:30) but she was absolutely killing it. Holding down the fort by herself with aplomb. We got our coffees and treats quickly and everything was perfect.

This restaurant has a poor-quality atmosphere and the staff seems to rush through service, even when there isn’t a line.

Chiara, the young lady who was working there on the day I visited, was absolutely fantastic. I was a bit hesitant to ask her for a new drink I had seen on Snapchat because, at another Starbucks location, the barista had gotten annoyed with me for making a request. However, Chiara was excited to give it a try. She even improved the drink by blending in dried strawberries along with adding them on top. The result was amazing! The drink is called the Strawberry Cheesecake, although I would personally name it Strawberry Blast because it’s bursting with strawberry flavor! If you have the chance to be served by her, I highly recommend having her make her own version of the Strawberry Cheesecake drink. Here’s what goes into it: a Strawberry and Cream Frappuccino blended with strawberry inclusions, topped with whipped cream, strawberry purée, and inclusions. I’ll definitely be coming back!

It was really great! They were out of what I originally ordered, but they suggested a similar dish that tasted fantastic!
