    Michael was rude and condescending when I only needed a water bottle. Please have better customer service training.

    The new cashier, Michael was wonderful, so I confidently give 4 stars. Otherwise the rest of the staff was quite rude, and only because we joked around with Michael so he would feel less stressed (would give less stars but Michael was really great!).

    We got our coffees. They were good. However, the employees lacked professionalism. They were carrying on with individuals, which appeared to be friends in long inappropriate conversations, hanging out near where prep and pickup is. Also, it appeared that off duty employees, were parading back and forth for over a half hour, in the store. The customer areas needed cleaning. Many customers were getting annoyed by this, not just us. I will not be coming back to this Starbucks.

    Very friendly staff, great location, and drinks always made to order. Ashley, Michael, and Ahmed in particular are very outgoing and are always pleasant to speak with. Great customer service! For all those leaving negative reviews, I suggest you take into consideration the nation wide employee shortages, supply shortages, and just how busy Sarasota has gotten, let alone during season. Try being a little more patient and a lot less rude. The workers here, along with everywhere else, are doing their best.

    I had a good experience here. Not busy when I arrived. Wait was reasonable and drink was as ordered.... Iced Americano with vanilla sweet cream foam on top. Service was cordial... Nothing over the top but not rude either.

    I was disappointed with this Starbucks. I hadn't realized it was so tiny. I had planned to come in and do some work there today. I did but it was too small, cramped and noisy. They had tables and chairs outside and I get that St. Armand's Key is a place for people watching, but I was looking forward to the SBUX experience of having my coffee and breakfast sandwich while working and then grabbing a little lunch while finishing up my day. The counter is small - really too small for a regular laptop and there are like six chairs. The outdoor seats are uncomfortable for a big girl like me. I look forward to the opening of the new one on N. Tamiami Tr. Even though There will likely be a bunch of business people and college students, it's close by and the parking is free. Hurry up!! Y'all are taking a looooong time!

    I don't usually rate a Starbucks, I've been to a lot of different locations at this point. I made an exception for this location because the staff were absolutely the sweetest, patient with the person in front of me who was not being the nicest, and made sure my drink was perfect. I don't live close enough to make this my consistent location, but I would if I could!

    Great Starbucks to hang out, drink coffee and eat some breakfast and enjoy the beautiful outdoors here in Long Boat Key Florida! 👍☕

  • 1/5 Bayley K. 4 years ago on Google
    It was an ok Starbucks but when I went their was about 4-5 employees yet their was only one girl that was doing all the work with making the drinks which their where about 10+ people in there with another employee working the register, Yet the other Starbucks employees weren't helping make the drinks and just cleaning the star bucks which want even dirty or messy. As so it took me over 20 minutes just to get my one drink. Not to mention how small it was in there.

  • 4/5 Greg C. 4 years ago on Google
    Love the drinks, but sometimes the service is slow.

  • 5/5 Corinne R. 1 year ago on Google
    The nice people working behind the counter gave me a nice little gift card after some intellectually destitute waste of a social security number who cant read printed names on items took my sandwich.

  • 4/5 Urban T. 1 year ago on Google
    Small coffee shop with limited seating outside

  • 4/5 Noel F. 1 year ago on Google
    Not tables available to eat inside. Not access to get table outside. Excellent Macchiato and gouda bacon burger.

  • 5/5 Leigh A. M. 1 year ago on Google
    Efficient online ordering. There are some outdoor seating options as well on the main circle!

  • 1/5 William H. 2 years ago on Google
    It’s very disappointing to watch three people stand around and talk why one person is working and making coffees.The girls conversation was about personal life nothing about this. Wait at 7 1/2 minutes for two Coffee.

  • 3/5 Fran L. 4 years ago on Google
    Great place for a drink, and staff is kind... but the music is SO LOUD! (I’m in my 30s, so seriously... LOUD!) Definitely not the place to grab a drink and chat with friends or to sit and work. If that’s what you’re hoping for and there’s not outside seating available, I’d recommend selecting another spot.

  • 5/5 Crystal N. 1 year ago on Google
    Friendly service and delicious Matcha latte. Convenient and quick.

  • 1/5 Greg K. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered. Payed. Waited 15 min. No coffee. Ask for a refund because I had to leave. Rude mgr or whoever the guy was. Refunded my money No reason or apology or oops or anything. Amazon will take over the world because customer service is a thing of the past.

  • 3/5 Allen A. 3 years ago on Google
    No drink carriers. Excuses, excuses. 3/5 Boom!

  • 5/5 Kevin J. W. 1 year ago on Google
    Great cafe-only store! Fred and his team were friendly and the drinks were perfectly made.

  • 5/5 Tiffany C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great location to pop thru when I’m in the area. Parking is rather difficult if you’re coming to the area JUST for coffee. Staff is always friendly. Public restroom for guests. Small inside area with 2 tables. Outside patio area has a few extra tables and space.

  • 2/5 Kira 1 year ago on Google
    Going to Starbucks, I regularly order on the mobile app to not wait in line and for it to be easier on the staff. After ordering on the mobile app, I had to wait an extra 15 minutes than the time it should’ve been ready. We waited for all the walk in’s and then some for their drinks to be made before mine. I asked for an update for my order in the front and she glares at me and waves my drink sticker in the air and says nothing. Horrible customer service.

  • 5/5 Lindsey L. 1 year ago on Google
    I am a tenured partner at a store in Indiana & this is the Starbucks I go to every single time I’m in Florida. I’ve been going to Longboat for 23 years & been a partner for 6… this Starbucks is consistently clean, accurate, fast, and above all so incredibly friendly. Always, no matter who’s working or how many years it’s been. Consistently amazing !!

  • 3/5 JAMES B. 1 year ago on Google
    Counter help was pretty rude about our order. If the cashier charged for a drink and specified to do it a certain way. Just do it and don't lecture us as the customer that it shouldn't be done a certain way. Speak to your cashier next time.

  • 4/5 Lalo L. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff attitude can be better. This is a good spot for coffee early in the morning (6am).

  • 5/5 Thomas F. 10 months ago on Google
    As someone that works on the circle and understands how stressful it can be, I appreciate the staff always being friendly and courteous to me and my staff. Cari remembers our names and always is so kind and talks to us when we come in to escape our workplace. Truly a phenomenal worker and always pleasant when I see her working.

  • 1/5 Dan R. 11 months ago on Google
    Order 3 bacon, sausage,egg wrap, with a terrible old sausage, smells and discolored sausage. My conclusions is that Starbucks getting lower quality and service , far away from performance of years ago , but prices increased dramatically.

  • 5/5 Camilla S. 9 months ago on Google
    The staff really goes above and beyond!! Amidst the humidity and heatwave, my sister and I came in to get cold bottled waters. One of the staff members offered to put ice into our Hydroflasks and pour more water into them so that we had enough. I didn’t catch her name but she had very vibrant and bright pink hair (which was very cool and fit her perfectly!) We literally talked about how nice a gesture that was for the entire day. Thank you for making our day and keeping us hydrated!!! <3

    Working on the island, I visit at least twice a week and love the service, the people, and the location. Its a fantastic Starbucks run by great people.

  • 1/5 Omar B. 3 years ago on Google
    They closed the restroom for customers, prefer to go somewhere else. Also, their attitude is not the best

  • 1/5 Ebonee J. 3 years ago on Google

  • 2/5 Katherine M. 4 years ago on Google
    It’s Starbucks but not the service I anticipate at Starbucks. I like going to Starbucks because they serve coffee that’s fresh and without a mouth full of grounds in my last two sips. Sadly, at this location it’s a gamble. Coffee! How do you screw that up? It’s the simplest item on the menu!

    Terrible bathroom - no flushing, no trash can, no soap, just a dryer and a dirty grimy door to open with your hands before you touch your food and drink.
