Starbucks - Des Peres

I went to this Starbucks in May and there was a worker there and I wish I knew her name. But I remember she had a tattoo on her arm in Arabic. She was so friendly, I wasn’t in the best mood when I walked up. But her being so welcoming and kind put a smile on my face. Honestly brightened my day.

Just wanna say that Alex was the sweetest barista I’ve ever encountered. And I love her blue hair. But so professional, upbeat, and kind to me and my kids yesterday.

I was there tonight for the $3 frappes they girls there were moving very fast and being polite. One girl making the drinks handed one of and got yelled at for i don’t know what because she was being very nice. She even told the rude older lady to have a good night in tears. She continued to make good drinks while being discouraged and upset. Will come back here a aging. Good people, good drinks.

I work at the mall and mobile order a drink here before every shift. It always tastes great, and the staff is friendly. I can’t speak for how well they do with in person orders, since I haven’t done any in a while, but that being said, I highly recommend using the Starbucks mobile app. It’s very easy to use and very well implemented at the restaurant. Just order your drink 5-10 minutes before you get to the kiosk (depending on how busy the mall is), grab the drink, and skip the 15 minute wait.

I like Starbucks coffee and its usually fast service. It can be a great place to hang out, or get some work done. I love that they pay their employees well. The only thing missing for me is that homey feeling, that neighborhood individuality that I love.
