Starbucks Starbucks stores in my area constantly running out of drink ingredients

I have filed numerous complaints with customer service about Starbucks in my area (Covina, CA) frequently running out of ingredients for drinks a nd the issue does not get resolved. I have been promised a call from Regional Manager, but I receive no call back. The issue continues. Just this week I drove to my local Starbucks on Azusa in the city of Covina, CA, waited in long line only to be told when I arrived at the order screen that they ran out of soy milk, kiwi for star drink and coconut milk. I drove to two neighboring Starbucks only to be told the same thing. I am promised a call from the Regional Manager, which I never receive. So disappointed in Starbucks on how unreliable Starbucks has been in making sure customers get the drink they desire. I am so frustrated that I am getting ready to boycott Starbucks.

Desired outcome: Would like issue resolved

MY name is Pete and my family and I regularly purchase Starbucks coffees. And until your Starbucks Manager and staff proved to me that they need more training on customer service and not be rude to people. I purchased a chi latte for my wife together with a cappuccino for myself on Sunday last week. When I gave the chi latte to my wife after ordering it...

I am a frequent customer of Starbucks, especially this specific branch in beckley. I have known for this last week for this specific branch to be closing at 5 as they appear to be short on staff. This store is 10 minutes from my office so with this in mind, today I made it a point to leave work 30 minutes early so that I could make it in time to get myself...

Starbucks Lobby closing and mobile app

Hi
We live in NE Tacoma, there was several of the Starbucks robbed. Hoyt and Twin lakes. They since have closed the lobbies and changed their hours without it reflecting on the mobile app. The app still has not changed which means if you use the app to order to pick it up, one has to go through the drive through line. By the time you get through it's cold. So my suggestion to you is kindly shut the app down until your customers can go in to quickly pick up their orders Thank you for your time.

Desired outcome: Updated and accurate app

I am a senior. The nearest location is 81952 Highway 111, Indio, CA 92201. They always seem to be either out of Cups or Lids or even Creamers and certain Coffee. This happens at least twice a week. Since I do not drive much I am limited to this particular store. But is is ridiculous that they always Lack the above. It happens more often than not.

Today, March 24, 2021 I was a Starbucks and experienced the rudest Barista. My husband ordered a Very Berry with no water. While I was standing there watching the drinks being made I saw the Barista put water into a cup. Now granted, she could have been adding water to a different drink, but there is no call for the attitude that I had received. I asked her...

Zipcode 48169 for Pinckney, Michigan. A blue haired (presumably female) employee has feigned ignorance to what a "chocolate chip frappacino" is and refused to look into a basic drink such as this one. The first encounter included what was previously stated and included a very poor attitude and very poor assistance. The next few encounters with thi...

First and foremost, I am not a typical complainer. I find most complaints to be first world problems and I know I shouldn't be consuming this poison anyway, but it is tasty, and I am addicted. So there's that. My issue is with the Sylmar, California location when you enter the store at the pickup window for mobile orders. I live around the corner and try to...

Starbucks Employees

I work in the trucking industry, and purchious starbucks coffee thermoses, for travel. They are a great product, I went to a starbucks on the 16 street mall. And to again purchious o coffee thermos, I went in and there were no cups, I turned my back and I heard the words bum and [censored], and dont come back, in denver a lot of people seem to have complaints about harassment. It is time to put a secret shopper there to investigate the management, and sexual harassment towards the customers. And to clean the place up, and install traditional values starbucks was famous for, if harassment continues the police will need to be involved, it's time to remove bad employers from our moll area, and bad management, and work on business restoration, treat customers with respect, belive me a smile goes a long way after paying 40 bucks for a coffee cup

My daughter who actually enjoys working at Starbucks struggles with mental health issue. Starbucks needs to give management extra training in supporting an employee who is having a mental health crisis and not tell them they need to suck it up or that it's an excuse. Meg is unsupportive and insensitive she should be ashamed of herself and learn that mental...

Starbucks medium roast decaf house blend, 12 oz

I recently purchased a 12 oz bag of the medium roast decaf house blend for $9.99. This is one of the worst bags of coffee I ever brewed. I had made several pots of coffee with it, continually adjusting it to make it more drinkable without any luck. It is very strong and tastes brunt.

Desired outcome: refund

On January 9, 2020, at approximately 8:49pm a friend and I went to the Starbucks located at 1-65 Dusk Drive, Brampton Ontario Canada.
Hot cup of tea spilled on my hand by staff.
Process not followed by staff on how to serve the tea.

Sought medical treatment and provide Dr. report to Starbucks.
Permanent scarring and discoloration.
Company has continually tried not to accept liability for what happened.
Company request a demand letter for injury and reneged on the amount that I requested.
Company claimed that the demand letter should have not been requested but it was.
CEO requested that K. address the matter and communicated with me for months until he requested the demand letter from myself.
No accountability by this company for such a serious accident, treated like a second class citizen.
I need further treatment for the discoloration and scarring.
