This Starbucks is hands down the best in the area. They are always friendly and ALWAYS make my drink just the way I like it. Today I went to a different Starbucks (my mistake) and was left with this pathetic excuse of a drink. It’s not even full. THIS Starbucks inside target would never allow a customer to experience this. Love you guys!!

There was only one person working (Camila) this Friday afternoon. There was a long line, I didn't help much since I came in with an order for my office. There was a guy in line huffing and puffing -- SO RUDE, but Camila was REALLY nice and sweet and VERY, VERY patient and remained calm. She was also fast (as fast as someone can be while working with HOT beverages and expensive equipment). Thanks so much, Camila! The drinks were delicious and I will be coming back again!

Ashley was so sweet and helpful, just the kind of great and friendly service you need when you've not had any coffee and a handful of kids for summer.
