Starbucks Perth 24hr Drive Thru in Perth & Kinross

I'm a long-term customer of Perth Starbucks. Clearly, all of my previous visits have been for less than three hours. I met a friend for a catch-up and coffees two weeks ago. Always friendly, always welcoming, there was no mention inside the building, or on the door, of a three hour limit for parking. There are signs in the car park but, to be honest, it has never occurred to me to read them. I've been aware since the lockdowns that Starbucks happily encourage folk to conduct their business in the shop, so I've always assumed it's fine to park there, as long as you're a customer. I now know different! A £100 parking notice appeared through the post yesterday. £60 if paid eithin two weeks. Starbucks say, 'We don't own the car park, so we can't do anything. Some people are successful when appealing to Euro Car Parks.' I suggested signage within the shop would help, but staff are not allowed to make decisions about such things. Not good enough! I've appealed, but I'm not full of hope. If unsuccessful, I'll be boycotting Starbucks until I have saved £60. Thankfully, there's a Costa nearby.

My first visit (possibly my last) to Starbucks Perth 26th April 24 to enjoy coffee, breakfast and lunch with friends ahead of driving to Inverness for cycling event. No issues with the drinks and food. Shocked to receive a 'PARKING CHARGE NOTICE: £100' 2 weeks later. Parked in a designated space. No signage that i recall in a prominent or obvious position advising a maximum stay. I remained in the car park without authorisation. Not sure how i was meant to get 'authorisation'. No staff member advised that the spaces had a maximum stay. Very frustrating.

Clean and tidy, staff were all very nice and friendly, and I received my free birthday drink, definitely worth stop for the weary traveller to charge your batteries.

Great customer service and the usual quick and tasty food and coffee ! Lots of friendly and helpful staff - well worth a visit

Could maybe do with changing the big light up sign saying 24hrs, as after a long drive the last thing we expected was for it to shut at 11.
