Starbucks in Camden

did not want to have to post this but in my five years of living in london i have never had a more shocking experience. on december 22nd my friends and i (all women of colour) asked for a table at this pub to eat. one of my friends (a woman of south asian descent for context) was holding a crepe purchased from the nearby crepe stands in the area. when we asked for a table, the manager (a white australian man) told my friend, “you’ll have to eat your KEBAB outside”. it was clearly a crepe. why the manager could not just say “outside food” is beyond me. we were well aware that outside food cannot be eaten in restaurants, and were happy to either dispose of it or throw it out - but to be the ONLY people of colour in the establishment, and to have the manager say something like that to my brown friend was shocking. unbelievable racial microaggressions. we did end up eating here but felt incredibly alienated by the manager. if you are a person of colour - AVOID. you will not be made welcome.

After I ordered a cup of coffee and asked the staff for a cup of free water, they refused my request. I am sure that it is Starbucks policy to provide free water to customers after ordering. Really awful staff and service.

Very warm staff and a fantastic experience everytime I drop in. Prompt, clean and excellent service :)

Great location Great view Great food

Situada en un callejón tranquilo al lado de Holborn, se trata de una cafetería sencilla y rústica. Hay unas pocas mesas y el café es bueno. Es un lugar donde puede sentarse y relajarse, aunque en las comidas está ocupado. El servicio no es lento. ¡Tenga en cuenta que solo hay un inodoro de "emergencia"! Dos cafés y tartas de crema portuguesa cuestan 10.
