    Popular place! Busy but not overly crowded! I charged my phone, I had a good coffee, what else could I ask for? 👍

  • Review 2 (2023-06-06 - Rating: 4)

    Grandeur interior with perfect location around the NY Times Square and great hospitality makes this place one of the preferred choice for grabbing a coffee or take a break during your travel course around Times Square.Dont be surprised to get a No if your looking for Free restroom visit as that perhaps is the usual case of other stores in the area too. You should definitely break your journey here to unwind your day and fantastic moments of the day from your NY itinerary!!!!

    This new concept of mobile ordering at this location is just what the GM Augusto is all about. This type of challenge is what he the type of challenge he is up for. Today I entered the store and saw him at the coffee bar driving the business smoothly. Without two of his Aces, the flow was constant and smooth. I am proud to say that this gentlemen is a friend and someone who instilled the winning formula in my person, hardwork and dedication. I will always be great full and thankful for what he has done for me. I have known him for over 10yrs, and the winning just is the norm and continues. He will define the weak points in the business and build on Team work. Awesome cafe for the person who on the run and want that quick service. Hospitality at its finest. Trust me order here and you will see great personable hospitable service. Solid 5⭐️

    Fast service, very quiet location despite being in front of Grand Central. No indoor sitting (all removed with CoVid). Full menu : hot drinks, pastries, snacks, etc.Christmas drinks all available.Limited merchandise.

  • Review 5 (2022-11-02 - Rating: 5)

    The drink was delicious. They were swamped so I agreed to take a grande size and they just gave me a gift card to make up for it.

  • Review 6 (2024-11-06 - Rating: 5)

    I work for the MTA and I went inside for a quick coffee and bathroom break. The entire staff made me feel valued as a City Worker and customer. I will always give them my business.Absolutely blown away by their customer service.

  • Review 7 (2019-09-09 - Rating: 5)

    Love their frappuccinos. Staff is friendly and takes special attention to each customer.

  • Review 8 (2022-02-07 - Rating: 4)

    What you’d expect from a Starbucks. Passcode to the toilet is conveniently labeled on the door itself so no need to ask! Love the efficiency.

  • Review 9 (2021-12-16 - Rating: 5)

    Today I went to this Starbucks location and I was happy I did. They have a variety of pastries, snacks, coffee and lunch items/food.My favorite are the blueberry scones and Caramel Brulée Latte. The staff are courteous, helpful. It is a very busy location and some people are complaining and whining about wait time. The baristas are human and need compassion from those who think they can used their privilege card to get quicker service.

  • Review 10 (2024-07-05 - Rating: 5)

    A great place to get a cup of coffee while waiting for a BUS (not a private vehicle Kathy Hochul!). Yes waiting for a Dartmouth Bus Lines bus. Would not have been there if I were not waiting for the bus. Id bet everyone in there was waiting for some form of public transportation. Have a nice bathroom. Hey Google. you ask about parking. There was none. No reason for it. Why dont you ask about public transit? Lots of that. This is NYC Manhattan baby.

  • Review 11 (2017-09-24 - Rating: 4)

    Starbucks across Manhattan can vary - sometimes you get a small in-and-out set up and other times you get a beautiful, spacious set up. This was a perfect balance of both. Spacious enough for a meeting or people watching session. The coffee / drinks are pretty consistent across Starbucks but the staff here was very friendly and welcoming. Only drawback was the music was very loud so difficult to sit and read.

  • Review 12 (2019-12-31 - Rating: 5)

    Friendly staff and fast service at this location.

  • Review 13 (2018-02-01 - Rating: 4)

    Nice place , your average Starbucks. Good staff clean place , restrooms working. Full variety of breakfast and lunch sandwiches . Pastries muffins are fresh. Nice place to sit and enjoy some coffee or lunch. Have been there late afternoon , not to crowded then

  • Review 14 (2019-02-05 - Rating: 4)

    Did a mobile order for Strabucks @ GCT while I was on the train coming in. When I got to the Starbucks-i knew something was amiss. It was beyond packed-shoulder to shoulder-and an employee was standing where you get your drinks, calling out names and apologizing. I waited 30 min for my order (a latte and croissant).Although the wait time was totally insane- the staff was beyond stellar. They were calm, genuinely apologetic, courteous, helpful, diligent. The manager handed out gift cards to people waiting, some employees started taking orders verbally from customers so they can multi-task. A barista who saw me waiting for a while-made my latte in less than a minute and it was delicious! The manager was great too-helping behind the counter-handing out drinks to customers. Didnt get flustered or defensive.So yea-def frustrated w/the wait-but their customer service is amazing-and for that-ill wait!

  • Review 15 (2018-05-27 - Rating: 5)

    Nice location directly across from Chrysler Building in mid town Manhattan. Enough seating to take moment and enjoy the coffee. This is a high volume store with helpful staff. Clean and bright.

    The people who work here made my experience at this location a great one. Very friendly and kind.

  • Review 18 (2018-03-02 - Rating: 5)

    Had such a wonderful experience!!! Don’t know the guys name, I wasn’t able to see their name tag. It was the guy with the MOST BEAUTIFUL EYEBORWS, he gets them done every 3 weeks, he was very kind and gave great service! Loved it!!

  • Review 19 (2021-04-14 - Rating: 4)

    Always fast service here and of course conveniently located in Grand Central. I also like that it is off to end and side of main traffic areas of the station. This is my Starbuck go to before work.

  • Review 20 (2018-07-30 - Rating: 4)

    Place can be packed most of the time and definitely not the tidiest. Though the crew is accommodating.Got my order less than 3mins despite the long lines.

  • Review 21 (2022-09-25 - Rating: 5)

    Great efficient staff! Ordered very close to my departure (my own fault) and they served my order quickly so I could just make my train.

  • Review 22 (2022-10-09 - Rating: 5)

    Despite the high traffic location, service was fast, coffee was good, and people are friendly. Thats all I need from a Starbucks!

  • Review 23 (2019-01-24 - Rating: 5)

    Service here is good. Usually pretty quick and I never really find it to be too busy at this location when ever I pop in. A good amount of seating is available.

  • Review 24 (2017-06-24 - Rating: 4)

    6/24/17 - the staff is usually friendly and humourous. Service can be slow sometimes, but its within a busy location.Nevertheless, they deliver whats asked.

  • Review 25 (2020-03-17 - Rating: 5)

    Great chi. Love the baked goods. Bagel bites, breakfast foods and protein boxes are great. 0rotein boxes are great to snack on for a road trip

  • Review 26 (2016-07-28 - Rating: 5)

    Always pleasant experience. Staff deals with locals as well as tourist in a professional manner. I stop by this location whenever I am in the area.

  • Review 29 (2019-12-16 - Rating: 5)

    Honestly the best experience I have had in Starbucks. I dropped my venti latte and was treated very well, and my latte was replaced. To a venti once again.Theyre great! And the atmosphere is lovely with a very nice background music.

  • Review 39 (2023-03-22 - Rating: 4)

    The staff works their butts off. And they remember their regulars. But wait. You’re out of tea? And raisin bagels are no where to be found. The corporate people. Take notice. Support your employees and fix your supply chain.

  • Review 44 (2016-12-11 - Rating: 5)

    Cozy (and attainable!) seating in the back thats somewhat separate from the front and consequently more quiet.

    Very good coffee nice staff breakfast bites very tasty

  • Review 50 (2017-07-06 - Rating: 4)

    Despite being jam-packed most mornings and throughout the day, this store almost always has their A-team working. Drinks and food is typically prepared quickly and accurately. Would give this location 5 stars if it werent for their AC not working, and the occasional delay in receiving my mobile order.

  • Review 51 (2018-02-22 - Rating: 5)

    I love Starbucks. I love their Frappaccio drinks.

  • Review 52 (2022-02-14 - Rating: 5)

    First time coming in this spot for my caramel macchiato and got the taste i really love … next thing got a clean plastic spoon instead of stirring stick which is better for me to mix my drink. Thanks to beautiful barista

    A convent stop on our way to Grand Central, to get our Starbucks fix.

  • Review 55 (2021-12-21 - Rating: 4)

    Go very frequently, but its always crowded during the AM rush. Mobile order 10mins before arrival! Rest of the day is great.

  • Review 56 (2019-07-21 - Rating: 4)

    Kind and welcoming staff. There’s a good atmosphere though it’s probably not the best place to study (for those who enjoy coffee shops to study in) as it can get very noisy. Also there are a lot of homeless people that come during the day to nap. Part of me doesn’t mind that they allow them to take a rest but at the same time it may not be ideal for most customers.

  • Review 57 (2018-12-05 - Rating: 4)

    This Starbucks is in Grand Central Station. It is open later than the other shops, which is convenient. I was stuck here late, not due to Starbucks. It was nice to find them open. Recommended.

  • Review 58 (2019-06-23 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 59 (2019-04-04 - Rating: 4)

    We had a little issue with the english language at our first day in the US, but the staff was perfectly friendly helping us to understand the order! They actually asked us about Austria and how long we were traveling to the US.Drinks and breakfast tasted fine. It was a relaxed start in our first morning in Manhattan!

  • Review 60 (2021-11-09 - Rating: 5)

    Everyone who works here ia very friendly and helpful. Even apologized for the lady who rudely pushed her way past me to be waited on next. Not their fault the lady was rude

  • Review 61 (2018-03-29 - Rating: 5)

    This is my FAVORITE store, Starbucks is my CHEERS where everyone knows my name ;-) The Baristas are all great. Ive been coming here for 4 years, and they are all personable and welcoming. To see the staff excel and set a great atmosphere is always welcoming.

  • Review 62 (2018-09-02 - Rating: 5)

    This is a Starbucks with nice staff, but a limited menu and no bathroom. They don’t have breakfast sandwiches here, but they have the egg bites. It’s a good spot to pick up coffee on the way to your train!

  • Review 63 (2019-07-21 - Rating: 4)

    Outstanding customer service but there is a lot of homeless at come here and sleep here during the day and Starbucks needs to have a policy to where theres no sleeping or you will be asked to leave and this is like one of very few locations here in New York that doesnt do that policy and also theres a petite female that refused to give me coffee because Ive been there all day work on some paperwork for my work and stuff and she refused that about getting refill she said this is your last refill that needs to stop to everybody is a patreon once you buy something at Starbucks

    For this to be such a busy location, I got my order taken and received in a reasonable amount of time. They even attempted to say my name (lol). Drinks tasted great and thats all you could really want in the end.

    Stopped by with my cousin, Lotifa served us fast and our coffees was point. The atmosphere is very welcoming and chill. Had a great laugh with Lotifa and Jay they were very welcoming. Will come again!

  • Review 74 (2019-01-08 - Rating: 4)

    It can get crazy crowded in here, specially during the morning and afternoons. Drinks are great, just a little wait time if you come when its crowded. Its a comfortable space though to enjoy and get some work done on the labtop while listening to music. They have these very comfortable chairs in the back, almost like a recliner but it dosent recline. But its just as comfortable as one. There is only 4 of them though but they always occupied by the local homeless people who asleep in them like 85% of the time I walk in there. The Bathroom is always clean though. They have a reg cleaning schedule for it. Think its 3 times a day.

    Starbucks is unique. They moved some of us from a $0.25 coffee to paying $3.00 and we dont feel cheated. Pandemic making it less agreeable.
