Starbucks - Olympic Valley

When we visited Jun 19-21 this Starbucks was open from 7:30a-2pm. They did a great job with handling the social distancing and such. Masks are required inside the stores in this Village resort/mall. Starbucks was only taking credit cards (or phone app gift cards, etc, basically no handling cash).

This is my favorite Starbucks in the world. The entire world. You dont even have to unstrap your board to go to the upper mountain location in the snow season. Lower location feeds half or more of squaw valley each morning and should be given some sort of award. Have you seen people who need coffee when they havent had coffee?

Very friendly service at this location despite short open hours. Convenient while staying at the Village

Good Starbucks products if you're staying at Squaw Valley. Plenty of outdoor seating. Service is fast and relatively friendly. WARNING: This is not a Starbucks. This is a Squaw Valley Resort business that's selling Starbucks products. They don't accept Starbucks points, and their prices are much higher than Starbucks.

Be warned, they don't take your Starbucks rewards here. I decided to treat myself with a more expensive drink than usual and was let down when they wouldn't take my freebie. :
