Starbucks, Columbia MO

It's a Starbucks, and a college campus one at that. Competent service but my bacon egg sandwich was still cold, obviously frozen and tossed in a microwave. I had my sandwich and was able to eat if before I got my coffee. Used to work in premium fast food, fresh eggs take 40 seconds, frozen take 2 minutes. Corporate Coffee, so I guess that's what I get. At least the BBQ joint next door was open for lunch.

Slow to make the drinks, whole playing and not paying attention to the customers. Next to no interaction with the customers because they employees were too busy interacting with eachother.

Worst experience ever because I ordered a mobile order and the app told me it be done at 9: 28, notified me it was done at 9: 23 and when I showed up at 9: 28 ish I had to go up to the counter and ask where my drink was and they said someone stole it probably and then now I’m still waiting for my medium size drink 30 min later and no one makes it have to go back up and ask why it’s not being made and she says she didn’t under stand me and that her bad. Lol I didn’t even care until the 30 min now leaving @ 9: 53

For it being finals week it was very very slow. But I enjoyed play to my order and get in my drain very quickly. I figured it would be jam-packed with college students studying but it wasn't. The Barista was very friendly

Either this location is not making drinks to the typical starbucks standards or starbucks quality has seriously gone down since my last coffee from them. I ordered an almond milk latte with SF vanilla and its tasteless. Nothing coffee or vanilla about it. Just steamed milk. Not worth the almost $6.

This Starbucks has lost a star over time. The newer staff appear to be less focused on efficiently making drinks and more focused on checking their phones and talking amongst themselves. However, the quality of food/drinks remains high.

The baristas do a great job, but they always seem rushed and a little flustered, even understaffed. The remodel in 2020 got rid of the old chairs, so definitely sit on the bench if you're going to hang out.

As always the coffee is great however it shouldn’t take 14 minutes to be made. They staff is running in circles and doesn’t seem to be able to handle the volume of walk in & mobile orders.

Fantastic and friendly staff. Also the downtown location is very convenient, especially for folks who are visiting the hospital.

The only reason I am posting this review is due to the service I recieved at this location from one specific employee: Annalin. Upon walking into the coffee shop, she greeted me, asked my name, acted personably, and went out of her way to make me feel like a valued guest. I do not normally go to Starbucks, but I will be sure to revisit this specific location because of environment Annalin has cultivated. She is not only an asset to this store location, but the community as a whole.

Love their mobile app, and the employees are great. Everyone is wearing masks. I wish they had a board to show which mobile orders have been made. You kind of stand around and just eventually ask. They are only allowing nine people in at a time, per a sign on the door, but there's really no way to know before you go in.

This Starbucks is a little different than the average since it is right on the edge of MU campus.is a mediocre coffee joint. They make a good latte or Americana, but I generally avoid the sugar laden fruit drinks. The staff here is friendly and competent. I recommend an oat milk latte and the Impossible Sandwich.

The app was down and directed me to the wrong Starbucks and didn’t tell me until AFTER placing my order. I call this Starbucks and tell them and she says ok and that she will cancel it. It’s a mobile order.you can see my card number and information so I’m honestly confused as to why you wouldn’t refund my money? I tried to give time too.just to see if maybe it takes a couple of days and here we are. 4 days later, nothing. On top of that, I’ve called multiple times, can’t leave a voicemail, the phone just rings and rings. And to be completely honest I don’t even think I should have to keep calling for a refund either. If you didn’t give someone their drink and they cancelled the order WHY would you NOT make sure they have their money back. ESPECIALLY when your over here charging $6+ for a coffee. I don’t appreciate this. And I’m a LOYAL customer. An every morning customer.

I hated my time in Columbia, but if there's one thing I remember about it, it's this Starbucks. Very friendly staff, which consists mostly of MU students. The only two complaints I have are:
(1) there was usually too much ice in my frappuccino, so I usually had to wait quite a while before I could drink it; and
(2) the place can very crowded, especially during Happy Hours.

They are closed for now until this is all over. Guess I'll stick to the French press at home. Really felt like a specialty drink though

On multiple occasion as i've waited 15 minutes for a mobile order to be ready and ended up having to leave to go to class without my coffee.probably won't come back considering dunkin' is right next door and they actually fulfill orders on time.
