    These Starbucks employees have put in so much hard work that you have during these hectic times. Everyone in your this always goes above and beyond to ensure that I have a FABULOUS experience every time I walk through their doors. I’ve been consistently visiting this location DAILY for the past year and a half—minus COVID closure times, and I have never left feeling any less than completely satisfied. I have all of the employees to thank for that. As a former barista, I know how straining busy times—and some customers—can be. They all are always so poised and ready to take on ANY challenge that may come their way. Everyone at this location is always around when I’m looking for a new drink suggestion, need a little pick me up for my day, or even just want to have a brief conversation. They are so understanding/caring, and I genuinely appreciate that. The baristas have to deal with me when I’m at my worst—tired and craving caffeine. Nobody is fun to deal with when they're half asleep, but everyone here handles it very well. If you work here, thank you for EVERYTHING. You all never fail to improve my day 100%. :)

    Really good coffee, a decent variety of drinks and the owner is very knowledgeable about their beans. Pour overs are very good with several different beans to choose from.

    This is the better Starbuck location in the area. If you are looking for SB coffee, make your way here. It's a nice location, and the staff is friendlier.

    I am not a coffee drinker, and I'm even less of a fan of Starbucks in general. However, this location and its staff do an excellent job of delivering fast, friendly service. The restaurant is clean and organized, if a bit small. I like getting frappuccinos when I need a reason to get away from my desk for awhile.

    This is my favorite Starbucks. The store is always clean and have a lot of chairs for people to sit in. The staff are super friendly and always are smiling. They are genuinely happy to help their customers. I always make sure to tip extra when I order here.

    Brand new small shop which brings some much needed personality to the Gateway. Drip coffee is spot on and the service is splendid. Will return!

  • 5/5 Alexander W. 5 years ago on Google
    An awesome addition to the Gateway community. I've been to their Hilliard location multiple times, this is a great expansion for the brand. Bre was very knowledgeable of the menu and options, if you love coffee, there's a new favorite spot in University District!

    The young lady who took my order was polite. With the Columbus Blue Jackets training camp being held next door, they were understaffed. As orders and service was slow.

    LOVE the You Are Here Demi Mugs for each City/State, I just wish all the stores had them or they were more easily accessible!

    Nice for early morning coffee. Friendly and quick service.

  • 4/5 Jennifer C. 2 months ago on Google • 43 reviews New
    Nice and actually pleasingly quiet so that you can do your work while sipping on your java!

  • 5/5 Caledon J. 10 months ago on Google • 36 reviews
    This Starbucks always goes above and beyond. My app was a bit glitchy. Staff is always attentive, cordial, courteous and go above and beyond to make the experience great. The Staff today making my drink went out of the way to thank me by name as I was leaving and wishing them well. I'm not a regular at this location so that always shows me a great effort to execute excellence in the realm of customer service. Thanks! Check this location out in the Arena District.

    Mobile orders took over 30 min two days in a row. Rude when asked about further wait

  • 1/5 Jung wook C. 4 months ago on Google • 8 reviews
    Don't buy delivery from this place. Going to wait quite a bit. They make it but wait to package til they get some lined. Not efficient at all. Had to wait alot even though order is made.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth 5 years ago on Google
    Excellent Coffee. Friendly staff!

  • 5/5 Sydney M. 5 years ago on Google
    The coffee here is great and so is the atmosphere. It's next to OSU's campus and has become a great study spot for me.

  • 5/5 Mark T. 4 years ago on Google
    I had a Guatemalan pour over that was really great! Got to hear about their partnerships with their producers and local businesses. Good coffee, good atmosphere, and doing good with their business.

  • 5/5 Bushra A. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a great place to study. The coffee is awesome and the Wifi pretty reliable! The seating is very cosy too and it's nice that they open pretty early even on weekends. If you're looking for a quiet place to study, this is great!

  • 5/5 Joshua S. 4 years ago on Google

    If you are looking for a sweet spot to do your homework or follow up on those emails, Connections is a must. Sweet spot, great drinks, and awesome customer service.

  • 4/5 Petra W. 4 years ago on Google
    This coffee shop is dedicated to making the community they are located in a little better place. The barista, managers and owners have always given me stellar service and make me feel like I'm a friend, not just another customer. The pour-over coffee and homemade syrups are amazing. Never had one of their hot teas, though.

  • 5/5 Alwxis T. 3 years ago on Google
    I ordered from Uber eats and wanted the hot and cold cup of the new reuseable cups and they didn’t have the lid to the hot cup but got a refund a gift card and a cute note they went above and beyond they are amazing

  • 1/5 R W. 7 months ago on Google
    Overpriced trash. Not worth the price.

  • 5/5 Hannah J. 8 months ago on Google • 4 reviews
    I’m from Canada and was in Columbus for a vacation this weekend. Pink Drink is my go-to-drink so I’ve had a fair share of it across Canada. At this location, the barista with short hair and blond highlights makes the most delicious, tastiest version of the Pink Drink I’ve ever had. Also so quick. I came back to get a venti of it for the second time in 2 hours!! Only “negative” is I wish they stayed open for longer so I can get a third/fourth one lol

  • 5/5 Dan R. 9 months ago on Google

  • 4/5 Michael W. 1 year ago on Google
    Fast service, not a long line. Was missing a few food items but otherwise it served its purpose.

  • 1/5 David B. 2 years ago on Google
    This is by far one of the worst coffee shops I have been to. A very rude male employee greets every customer by shouting at them to put on their masks. This guy clearly has problem with customer service. I'm sure this will be his only opportunity at employment.

  • 5/5 Tyler G. 5 years ago on Google
    Coffee Connections is the addition The Gateway has been needing for quite some time. I work nearby and this is now my coworkers and I's exclusive coffee spot. The staff always greets you with a smile and their drinks are great! We often have small meetings at the shop as it has a great atmosphere; good music, welcoming layout and design and as I said before, great coffee. It's a great way to start the work day!

  • 5/5 Jennifer H. 2 years ago on Google
    Always so friendly and fast!

  • 4/5 Joshua C. 2 years ago on Google
    Pretty much your only choice for coffee in the Arena District. Staff was polite.

  • 1/5 Hagan Z. 2 years ago on Google
    No parking. Unless you live in walking distance in the questionable apartments they have in this area you will not be able to get your coffee.

  • 5/5 Kasandra Dalton N. 5 years ago on Google
    Great to have a local coffee shop near campus. Their espresso blend was delicious!

  • 5/5 Josh H. 5 years ago on Google
    Absolutely love this place! I was there on opening day and quickly fell in love with the place. Wonderful atmosphere, incredible friendly staff, and of course, best coffee in town!! Coffee connections makes a great addition to the gateway!!!

  • 5/5 Seth B. 5 years ago on Google
    I love this place! The staff is really kind and knowledgable about the coffee. It's the great coffee shop that Gateway has been missing. Highly recommend

    Love this starbs! It’s normally super slow unless there’s some event downtown. No drive thru and it smells really good in here all the time. Idk kinda gives me COSI vibes. Love all the partners!!

  • 5/5 David M. 4 years ago on Google
    My grandma and I were going to a hockey game, but it was cold out, and were were 30 minutes early. We went into starbucks, which we normally never do. I had probably the best hot chocolate that I have ever had! The man behind the counter was really nice, and the drinks were made fast. Also the Jackets won, so that's always a plus!

  • 5/5 Samantha E M. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Elias P. 4 years ago on Google
    Really nice coffee shop in the university district. Somehow I must have missed it last time I walked all the way up here - or it's new since then!

  • 5/5 Conner G. 5 years ago on Google
    I love Coffee Connections!! This place has such a cool atmosphere and is very cool to be at. I come here with friends to study a lot and love the coffee. I usually get a caramel macchiato because that’s my favorite but they have so many other good things to choose from. They play great music to study or read to and it’s very peaceful. It’s not too loud or not too quiet. The staff is awesome and they always greet you very nicely when you walk in and want to order something. They can explain the menu to you and answer all your questions. Truly a great place for coffee and friends!! You should seriously consider checking this place out!!

  • 5/5 Nicholas R. 3 years ago on Google
    The ladies here are so nice and really put in extra effort to make you feel welcome and the drinks are always AMAZING. Best Starbucks I've ever been to.

  • 5/5 Joshua M. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a great place to go hangout for the day and get some work done! They may not have as many options as your fancier coffee shops but their brown sugar cinnamon flavor lattes are really unique and delicious, as is the trifecta roast. They also offer smoothies and milkshakes, tea, and cider. It's a perfect little place to work and really close to campus. Plus, they are a great presence in the community around them, donating tips to charity and offering a "Love your neighbor" campaign where you can buy a cup of coffee for someone in the community and pay it forward. Loved their place in Hilliard, and I'm glad to have one close to campus!

  • 4/5 Christopher M. 4 years ago on Google
    Good prices, good coffee, I will definitely come here again. Pleasent location, outdoor and indoor seating.

  • 5/5 Kyle M. 4 years ago on Google
    Awesome coffee! I went here on a Saturday and it was very relaxed. I sat and studied and I didn’t feel rushed out the door. The interior is very clean and well maintained and they have a fireplace which adds a homey touch. It’s very accessible to university students as well.

  • 5/5 David H. 4 years ago on Google
    Me and a few buddies of mine visited Coffee Connections for the first time today and our experience was extremely pleasant. The young lady who took care of us was very accommodating and very helpful. Our drinks were festive and delicious, and we will certainly be back soon.
