Starbucks

Great Starbucks to have a snack and good coffee. Good music, soft jazzy music. I forgot the server's name, he remembered my name and I'm not a regular customer. On a family trip and came in twice and the third time he said my name after ordering. So great service for that but they are also very efficient at getting your drinks done.

Somehow the renovation has made the store less customer friendly. Ridiculously cramped/crowded seating area not suitable for conversation because you're practically sitting on top of the neighbouring table. Ridiculously small tables. Ridiculously limited baked goods selection. Ridiculously long wait. No sense of order, as the staff struggle how to prioritize between customers in the store, pick-up orders, and drive-thru. The only thing short were the one word answers and grunts from the lady taking my order. Disappointing across the board.

Pleasant staff, drinks made right. Could be a bit faster when not busy and they do run out of cold brew and other coffees frequently, but when it's available, it's really good.

No service skills no morning or hi or thank you for coming in go to second cup at Parkwood see how good service is

Horrible, weak coffee. Once I can see as a mistake. Twice in a row? Not so much. Avoid this one.
