Reviews for Starbucks in Athens, OH
A good place for a cup of joe.
I don't like there coffee and never go there anymore. ????????????
The staff here is nice but the facilities suck big-time. Inside the Athens Kroger's, the ambience is a cross between post-wall... Berlin and an empty NYC subway station. However, and on a brighter note, there are no rats. One third of the available customerspace is, on half of my visits, taken up by pallets of incoming cafe supplies waiting to be put away by the harried, over-workedstaffers. Another third of the seating area is often occupied by store employees on break, or off-shift. What space remainsconsists of spartan, spine correcting wooden chairs probably purchased from a nunnery in the gulag. Hygiene here is somethingalien. Table tops are typically littered or at least hold crumbs and spills from one or more previous patrons. COVID precautionsare a thing of the past; established sanitation practices apparently a thing of the past century. It's a shame about thisplace, really. The space here is quite adequate for a nice, comfy, bustling social environment. But management seems to treatthe location merely as a coffee refueling station. I've seen many more inviting gas station coffee centers. Read more

One of the staff members, I believe his name is Clayton, was very rude when I came in with a small group of people to order... drinks. He continuously complained while making drinks because he had to do his job. There was another instance where he wasrude to a friend of mine when she was also ordering a drink. Worst experience 0/5 rating. I dont think I will come back to thisestablishment. Read more
The absolute worst! Today they had displays out of a drink I?d been waiting for. When I go to order it the barista said the... drink wasn?t actually available until the next day that they just put the displays out early. Okay, that makes no sense. Shethen informs me that their frappuccino machine was down. The frappuccino machine is ALWAYS down. Somethings always broken. Waterleaks from the ceiling, and causes them to be closed super early. There?s just always something wrong!! I?ll go to the Starbucksup town from now on.. Read more
What can I say? Starbucks delivers uniform excellence in their market niche the same way McDonalds delivers absolutely... consistent mediocrity world wide. I like excitement but I go back for reliable. This Starbucks upholds the standard. Read more
