We love this Starbucks, and would choose it over most of the chain in this country. We’ve been coming here for over four years. Jake served us at the till with a smile, and manager Agnes made us delicious pumpkin coffees. Yes, the cleanliness could improve, but then again how many chain cafe are out there that are busy AND pristine? Can’t think of one that I’ve seen yet. And yes, I can think of a couple of staff that don’t always have a smile on their faces, but then again neither do I. Never had a bad service here, we’ll be back again soon.

Female worker was unfriendly and seemed intent on saying as little to us as possible (basically the price and that was it). She made us feel like an inconvenience and people with that attitude shouldn’t be employed in a customer-facing role. The only suitable table for my Mum and I to sit at had dirty cups from previous customers, so we politely asked the surly server if this could be cleaned (it should have been cleaned already, particularly because the staff weren’t busy due to lack of customers however they seemed disinterested in actually doing their job). Our drinks were nice, and decent value for money. Seating area was chilly due to external doors being left open for the entirety of our visit.

If you were measuring ‘customer experience’ at almost any level, you would barely give Starbucks, in Solihull Retail Park, a rating of 1 out of 100. In terms of welcoming, attentive staff, there are none that we met … in terms of surroundings / ambiance, this place is seriously dirty and a testament to ‘how NOT to do it’s … in terms of coffee, it’s weak / watery and was given to me partly in the saucer … in terms of ‘the toilets’ there was no toilet paper and the corners of the floor were festering in filth. Why would anybody ever go here? How do they stay in business? (Could it be ‘lack of competition?’ )

You really need to mystery shop this place. Staff chatting behind the counter while customers are queuing. Then one of them decided to turn around and serve us. The floors. Tables and chairs are disgusting and filthy. I was hoping it would improve from the last visit but it hasn’t so won’t be back.

Service at till fine downhill after that. Drinks made in no particular order and poorly made. Had my favourite Iced brown sugar oat expresso- so badly made. Had only shown it the oat milk and then told the customer behind me that they had run out of oat. The oat balances the drink but this was horrible!

I always receive great service at this Starbucks and have been visiting for as long as i can remember. One of my favourite and most appreciated visits was when i had my first pumpkin spiced latte of the year made by Jake, and had the best customer service to date. However, to top this off, after a long day studying at university and just craving an peach iced tea to sit down and study with- I just can’t express how delightful the customer service is. I just want to give a shoutout to not only Jake who I’ve mentioned before but Charlie also. SUCH. GOOD. SERVICE. When waiting in line he held conversation with me, respectfully asking about my day and making me laugh whilst you could tell he dedicated his craft to make my drink. Now, this seems in depth, yet I must express how much I appreciate it when someone puts so much dedication into not only making an ordered drink, yet to also ask about your day. The respect and effort it means so much to hear. It is common human decency that we no longer see as much in society- yet this Starbucks always fulfils my expectations and I consistently leave a very happy customer. Thank you Charlie and the team your amazing! I definitely recommend visiting with a friend, to study, to read, or even just sit with a book; you’ll be welcomed with open arms. (Plus I definitely recommend the Christmas drinks appropriate for the season!)

What a s..t hole. Filthy floors tables and seats. Staff could not give a toss.Toasted sandwiches incorrectly labeled so my 5 cheeses initially came as a ham and cheese. Asked staff for a 5 cheeses toated sandwich, waited 10 minutes, went back to staff, they hadn't put sandwich on. 10 minutes later a sandwich was brought over which I can only describe as disgusting. It had been microwaved, it was wet,slimy could not eat it ! My wife's latte was like warm, she asked for more hot milk, it had Christmas spice in it so she didn't drink it. Overall a s..t experience ! STARBUCKS YOU NEED TO GET YOUR FINGER OUT WAKE UP AND GIVE THE PUBLIC SOME RESPECT

Great location and perfect coffee but staff must really improve. Four of us from work went for a coffee after work and the person who served us at the till did not have any will to serve customers. There were 3 people behind the counter but only one was making coffees. It took over 15 mins to get our 4 standard coffees. Makeover last year is great but place is always untidy. I read somewhere that Starbucks sells experience and not just coffee, well, there is a lot of distance to cover to state that. Would return back because I love the coffee, but probably a take away

Went in an hour and a half before close and apparently because they 'were nearly closing' they couldn't give me a proper cup. For the price they charge they should give a proper cup. They'd also closed the whole upstairs area where the chairs are actually comfortable, so I had to be cramped in a corner with a cup of boiling hot water and a tea bag I could have made at home. I was trying to work on my laptop so I needed a bigger table that I woudl've found upstairs.

It's a Starbucks selling the usual fare so no complaints there. In common though with a few Starbucks, the tables usually take forever to be cleared. The toilets are the dirtiest that I've encountered in a coffee shop so take a trip to the loo before you arrive as a precaution.

Dragged in here by my 13 year old for her coffee drink. I went upstairs to find a seat while hubby and daughter got the drinks. *sigh* here we go again. My delight at seats by the window was soon stolen from me on seeing the disgusting state of the place, AGAIN. Starbucks clearly do not care about customers because if they did they would not allow people paying for premium coffees to attempt to sit in such squalor. Every seat was FILTHY. The floor was FILTHY. Everywhere I looked was dreadfully dirty. They clear tables now and again, but why not employ a youngster to clear tables and go round with a long handled dustpan and brush to keep the floor free from grot? and while you are at it CLEAN THE SEATS!!! i have had it with this place and would urge everyone to go elsewhere. If this is how they keep the public places, what state is the kitchen and coffee prep area?!? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, STARBUCKS?!

I think I contracted an infectious disease this place was so dirty! Every table on every level was covered with empty cups and mugs or spilt beverages. The floor was filthy and needed sweeping and mopping. And the toilets were of a third world state! It might have been understandable except for the three staff giggling and gossiping behind the counter instead of cleaning up and making the shop presentable for the few customers who were in. Seriously Starbucks, this was the dirtiest branch I have ever had the misfortune to visit. Clean up!

Have not been here since before the refit. Thought I would see if it had improved the place. Hubby and daughter queued to get the coffees while I went upstairs to find somewhere to sit. It was a quiet day so I picked a set of seats next to the window. I had to sit side-saddle in one chair, and looking around, the others were the same.....filthy, marked, and clearly not wiped down ever. I wished I had bought wet wipes with me so I could clean where we were going to sit!!

Had a nice cappuccino after my haircut, looking sharp now I needed to celebrate, it is a clean and pleasant café, staff are pleasant and she smiled for me, the usual Starbucks menu, there is seating downstairs and also outside on the pedestrian street, but my favourite is to go upstairs to the comfortable seating and armchairs, sink down into them, but they get taken quickly by the windows, you can look down on everyone and watch them below while enjoying the coffee, people watching I suppose, there is also WIFI to tap away on my mobile phone...then it was away to the Tesla car showroom and other shops in Touchwood, a place I visit on occasion.
