Starbucks - Sarasota

Starbucks has the most awesome baristas and employees. Doesn?t matter which one you go to. The place is immaculate and employee are always ready and happy to help and make suggestions. Their coffees and food are always fresh. I know there a bit expensive but the quality and experience merit the price

The girl wearing a floral shirt, with brown hair and a septum piercing, was extremely friendly. You should definitely consider giving her a raise!

I had a pleasant experience at the restaurant. The ambiance was nice, and I ordered a cup of coffee (blue) with my breakfast, which looked appealing. After enjoying my meal, I took a stroll down the boulevard, passing by the art apartments.

It's clear that many people face difficult circumstances, and homelessness is a pressing issue. Upon visiting this particular Starbucks, I've noticed the same group of displaced individuals gathering each morning when the store opens. With no food or drinks being purchased, there often aren't any available chairs or tables for paying customers to sit down. I've overheard others in line expressing their frustration about the lack of seating. Unfortunately, it seems like this situation isn't going to change, and those who are displaced are very aware of their presence. While waiting to place my order, I felt the weight of their gazes, silently pleading for help. This Starbucks is situated in a high-rent area with real estate worth millions, which makes it seem out of place. It has become a gathering spot for those who are less fortunate, a trend seen in many locations across the country.

It's incredible that in 2022 we still aren't respecting the people who serve us. It was saddening having to see a woman be racist to one of the workers who was trying to do her job. I love this store though and the service. Keep doing a good job guys!!
