Excellent service. Staff were friendly and helpful despite being rushed off their feet and having to contend with some very rude customers. No china cups but I can’t blame the staff for that. Overall, we had a lovely visit. Clean and tidy, good ambiance.

Said I was sitting in. Coffee served in paper cup. She said this was standard unless specifically requested????? She told me there were a limited amount of cups.🤪🤪🤪🤪 A company the size of starbucks have a shortage of cups????? Miserable member of staff. At nearly 4 quid a cup.

Went to get my son and myself a treat. Whilst in the queue we watched my drink get wrongly given to 2 different cars before being handled by multiple staff.. Im by no means a karen but felt a bit 🤢 by the time i received my passed about frappe.. I then made a polite request and Wednesday her very self walked around plopped my drink into a new cup and handed me my double layered drink back whilst looking like id killed her dreams.. Then proceeded to taste my drink to find it tasted like 💩. Very disappointed and disturbed by the demeanor of the staff.. Would not recommend 🙄

The floors hadnt been swept and mopped, tables were very slowly cleaned , well not cleaned even just cleared of the cups (these should be wiped over extensively with antibac every time they are used, along with the chairs), i cant even mention the toilets which were in disgusting condition excrement all over the bowl dirty floors broken toilet seats, very unhygienic, why do you allow this establishment to stay open if you cant adhere to basis hygiene policies, you do seriously need to review this and start to listen to your customers.

Visited Starbucks today. Absolutely disgusting service. The girl serving me couldn’t even look at me when taking my order- and on another note, since when was it acceptable for staff to be eating behind the line when preparing beverages/ food items? Another girl had a lolly pop sticking out of her mouth while preparing in a busy environment, and when questioned by the customer in front proceeded to remove the lolly pop from her mouth and was waving it back and forth without a care for hygiene. Didn’t we just finish a pandemic, or does training here no longer provide hygiene measures in the workplace? Will not be returning.

Visited the drive thru at 7pm on Monday 19th Oct to find it closed off, no reason given. There were 3 members of staff sat around inside chatting and vaping. One finished her shift and the other disappeared. When another customer walked to the door, which was locked, and tried knocking on the window she was totally ignored by the member of staff who had her back to the window on her laptop. The amount of custom they lost in 20mins was a lot. No reason given as to why the whole place was closed 2 hours earlier than it shouldbe. Seemed they just didn't want anymore customers.

We called in for a quick coffee and snack on a Sunday ealier this month, wish we hadn't bothered.The place was dirty, scruffy and generally unloved. The only table available was nearer the door - usually no problem, but the door mechanism was obviously broken with a patch up of cardboard and tape which prevented in no way the constant banging every time somebody went tin or out.Added to that our cappuccinos were weak, warm and over frothed. Overall a sad visit.

Popped in for a cuppa whilst shopping. Ordered 1 tea and a hot chocolate. Hot chocolate is made swiftly. My sister goes off to drink it. Meanwhile I’m stood waiting and waiting and waiting for my tea. The girl who was making the drinks doesn’t even bother to ask why I’m stood there. 4 people were served their drinks after my order! Still stood there with no one asking if they can help. So I asked if I could have my cup of tea. The girl making the drinks asked the other member of staff who was taking the orders if she had made my tea, to which she replied oh no I haven’t. No sorry, no apologies to myself. She then proceeded to make my tea and instead of bringing it to me, left it by the till and said “it’s here” not amused. Staff seemed like they couldn’t be bothered to be there. Oh and it seemed to be an inconvenience when asking for milk as the metal flasks the milk is kept in were both empty!

Haven’t visited here in a while and was disappointed as it felt like it had gone downhill. The place had a strange smell. It was quite early in the day and they said they don’t do toast, but do fruit toast. The fruit toast was okay, apart from the fact that it was two crust pieces. Not sure if that’s how it’s meant to be, but would prefer proper slices! The member of staff at the till mumbled ‘want any waffles or coins today?’, but I had no idea what she was talking about. It was only after I’d paid that I realised she was referring to pots of gold chocolate coins and waffles further down the counter. Overall, just not a particularly pleasant feel to the place.

Came here because we wanted a quick bite and coffee. Food was nice, coffee was the best, had a lovely fresh muffin. HOWEVER. The knife they give you to cut your food, I mean hot food is abit ridiculous. I cut my Ham & Cheese panini, only to have to use quite abit of strength, then once I finished cutting one half of my food fell onto the floor. Think it would be better of they could cut it before serving. 2 out of 3 members of staff wasnt the friendliest.

Starbucks Llanelli what the heck has happened!!! The shop looked disoriented chairs moved to make it awkward for customers had to wait to be served which was fine placed my order for pumpkin spiced latte which has only been available 2-3 weeks to be told they didn’t have any and that she was sorry. I said it’s only been available a few weeks and you have never run out before. She said I know I know I’m sorry but we have a new manager and I don’t think she knows how to run things quite frankly as absolutely everything is up in the air no organisation to anything. To this I said how could you get ordering a simple product wrong she shrugged her shoulders. Ordered another drink to find three staff who were chatting with a manager of some shorts who was walking around behind then at the front giving staff special requests for her order disbursing the customers already being served. My ordered took a while as confused staff were remaking drinks already made. There was only me in the waiting so heavens know why. My drink arrived over following my hands couldn’t avoid getting messy. I spent £6.50 to have to ask for the cake I ordered as it wasn’t given at till point . Unsure what has happened to the store I love normally visiting other than not organisation. Bring back old manager who cared about the customers. Never ran out of pumpkin spice come on school boy/girl error. Please fix ! Annoyed customer !!

Took our seat and there were coffee mugs everywhere (all over the table, the window sill right next to us had about 8 or 9 mugs just dumped there) considering we sat on a table which sits 2 people obviously they had not cleaned the table in awhile, there was also mess all over the floor.. All that being said it was busy and there were only 2 members of staff working. The coffee itself was top standard and as ordered.. The staff were friendly and welcoming.

I go to Starbucks because it's consistent. Expensive but you know what you are getting. Except in this branch. Ordered a hot choc with soya milk. I was asked if I wanted cream and I said no thank you (I don't eat dairy). I waited patiently for my drink at the end of the counter only to be given my hot choc with cream on. Not a problem, mistakes happen. I explained and she apologised. She then literally turned round and scooped the cream off into the sink. And handed me it back. So my hot choc now had lumps of cream round the rim and floating in the top. I told her I had seen her simply flick it off and asked for a fresh one. She seemed a bit surprised I wasn't happy. I don't eat dairy I told her. Feeling like a freak. I eventually had a fresh one that she sprinkled choc bits all over without asking. I am sure these have dairy in too but was too embarrassed at this point to ask. Vegans, dairy intolerants be mindful here. For the price I pay in here, I don't expect such flippant service. I have never had a problem in any other branch - ever.

She used the same cup as before thankfully she took the cinnamon shaker out first though doh!!! what about the contamination of the cup after that being in there though.Then my daughter got in the car and drove off complaining to her friend that it didn't taste that nice to find on opening the lid that the cup was only half filled with ordinary latte so not even what she had originally paid for.I have tried to contact the manager of Starbucks Llanelli but without success

So I needed a cuppa and as there was only a couple waiting I decided to give it another chance. Its a joke! It took two pairs of hands to make a cup of what they call coffee and still took over 5 minutes to land on the counter. It wouldn't be so bad if it was decent coffee.

As this Starbucks is set in a shopping area, it is a good place to stop & have a break (there are other coffee shops in Trostre). I find this Starbucks always has a good selection of cakes & sandwiches no matter how busy they are, this is compared to others who regularly run out of everything (crosshands), the staff are always friendly & helpful & the toilets are always clean. The only issues I have with this place are in busy times the staff are flat out & tables do tend to get quite dirty & cluttered with empty crockery, not the staffs fault, their management should put extra staff on during busy times and also young people (children) do like to hang out in there, with 3 of them taking up seats when only one of them has a drink. Despite this, I do like this Starbucks and will keep returning.

Stopped there during my lunch break and seeing only three in the queue (one girl waiting for her coffee and two men who were together) I decided it should be quick so I stop and pick up a cappuccino. Big mistake! The young girl got her coffee, one man sat down and then I had to endure the man asking about the new cup and free coffee they had been offering the week before. Took two assistants more than 10 mins to the man it was an offer for one day only. I'm standing behind with the money in my hand looking at my watch and completely ignored. When I finally got back to work I opened the coffee and realised it was barely half full but luckily was able to top it up with hot water in work, If you want a quick coffee don't waste your time,

You can't beat Starbucks for their service, staff and coffee. It is always great and they're my favourite coffee place. I never find it messy and they're so busy anyway it's understandable. LOVE IT!!!

Not best pleased with my visit to Starbucks today. Ive visited several times but today after purchasing coffee and a croissant, I asked a staff member for a plastic knife to cut it as I was sharing it with my Hubbie. I couldn't tell if he was joking or not but I was quite taken aback by his reply ' you're not going to hurt anyone with it, are you?' I laughed embarrassingly and said 'its only to cut my croissant in half' later I thought it over and probably should have asked him what he meant exactly. I don't feel it was an appropriate line of questioning! I don't know this staff member and it was quite obvious I was a customer who had just bought coffee. Will be taking this up with customer service too.

Lovely clean coffee shop with outdoor seating too. Friendly helpful staff but can get busy on Times. Staff are helpful if your unsure of what to order. I love a Starbucks the only downside I feel is it is overpriced chain.

I've called in here several times usually for quick work meetings. I was struck on this occasion at how dirty the place had become. I arrived to be greeted by dirty cups on tables which hadn't been cleared away. There was also, what I believed to be was tinsel still stuck to the counter front - surely not left over from Christmas??!! I was unfortunate enough to have to use the loo and I was sorry I did. They were in dire need of a good clean, I doubt if they had been done that day, tissue paper strewn across the floor, the toilet seat and surround were not clean and the previous occupant had decided flushing was simply too much of an effort for them - GRIM! Staff were friendly enough and the coffee good but seemed lack-lustre in attending to the environment. Starbucks needs to implement far stricter quality control measures to ensure that standards do not fall to this level since we as customers are paying for a premium product and expect a premium environment. You guys definitely need to up your game!

I met a colleague on parc trostre and we decided to go for a coffee, it was quite some while that I was last there, in fact last time my wife was given a cool drink and wen she asked for it to be warmed up they went to charge her, mistake!!!.we went in and bought our coffee, as it was a sunny day we decided to sit outside. Well this time the coffee was nice and warm, but the tables outside had obviously not been cleaned from the night before!!!.get a grip starbucks!!!

Went here this morning whilst waiting for a friend - the tables had not been cleaned and there was food on the floor. Even the floor behind the counter didn't look that clean with bits of paper etc. on it. Won't be going here again.

I used to love Starbucks, but this one in particular is messed up.. I'm always having to wait longer for my drinks than I should and your bound to get your order given to you wrong... But in saying that the staff are nice and the shop is clean!

I regularly visit this Starbucks as its close to the shops and open late however a majority of the time when I'm in there I find that there are tables which are dirty with a collection of dirty cups etc. and the toilets are never that clean. The place generally seems to be under staffed. The good place if your getting a take out.

Been here so many times, it's like visiting an old friend. Always a warm and happy welcome. I'm not that adventurous with my coffee, black one star please, but love to try the different roasts and blends they have. Staff are ready to explain what the latest offerings are and advise on something new and exciting to taste. Food may be on the tad expensive side, but it's good quality, and the carrot cake is always calling my name! It's always busy, a good coffee shop is not a quiet one!

Had a white chocolate mocha today, don't like normal chocolate mocha, end up with a dark mix in the bottom of the cup but this white chocolate one was just heaven in a mug, definitely going back for more.

I have been to this Starbucks several times as I like the taste of the latte's served. It is conveniently located between the shops. I agree with previous comments that some staff need to improve their customer services skills and manners.

Will definitely return! Faster service than I'm use to in other major coffee chains, and the staff are full of genuine smiles. Lovely to see people enjoying their jobs :) Well done guys can't wait to return :)

We were shopping in the parc and fancied a coffee, so in we went. We ordered two coffees and had to go outside to sit down as there was no room inside.My wife went to drink hers and found it to cold, so she went back inside and asked them to warm it up, this they did and then told her that would be an extra 20p. She hit the roof and complained,but to no avail.We wont be back.

Even though I go here quite regular you can only really find a seat in the day time. Other times you'll be lucky. Its so small. Staff aren't all that great. Tables are always full of previous customers trays. Staff need lessons in customer service too. The product is fine but the store and staff are a different thing.

'Richard' tall , blonde guy, very rude. To the point of being ignorant. He certainly needs some training in customer services. I have emailed head office to inform them of this. Everything too much bother for him. Also, spoke so quietly couldn't hear anything he said. Ordered panini, only for it to be left on counter for long time, getting cold. When I went forward to collect my order, he replied, rudely, 'that's not yours'. Nearly gave him a left hook! Come on Starbucks pull your fingers out !

Very good service, very helpful staff. Not enough staff as the table did need emptying. The can do attitude of the staff was good and they deserve an excellent rating. Come on Starbucks give them enough people to get a full excellent x

Terrible service. Dirty tables. Sat in waiting room after they closed and all you could hear was shouting and swearing. Not ideal for people to hear whilst walking in/out of the hospital or sitting in waiting room. Would not recommend

Unbelievable from ordering to the food. Didn't have any black pudding at 1130 am in the morning. Couldn't offer any alternative for this. But still expect you to pay full price! Even though they couldn't supply what they offer as a complete meal. Should be discounted or offer an alternative if its them who can't supply the food. Food took 35 minutes to arrive. Food was overcooked and undercooked. To say it was disappointment after such a long wait is putting it nicely. No wonder they offer free refills on coffee. It's something for you to do in the long wait for terrible food. Will not be returning for this poor experience.

Filthy!! Tables, floors and counter are in desperate need of cleaning but the toilets are something else!! Stinking to high heaven of stale urine, the doors are black and sticky, just gross. Shame on you Starbucks! Ordered one white coffee & got given an Americano!! Avoid this place if you like a clean environment and the right order!

Very dissapointed with this place. Tables were cleared but had not been wiped down after the previous customers. Food was OK and would have had better burgers and chips from McDonald's, and that says something. Salad in with burger was that old it had dried up 🫣 Was a long wait for food but was informed of this when ordering. Staff hanging around as if they weren't aware of their job start with helping with the long queue the one member of staff had at the till or even giving the tables a wipe down. Sadly we wont be returnuing and we do hope management will sort the issues.

Lovely breakfast as usual here, service is great, staff are happy and it’s a nice start on the way to a day out. Can honestly say I’ve never had a negative experience here, the food is great, good value for money and lots of it, place is spotless and the service is always really good. .
