Starbucks - Cookeville

I don?t know why Starbucks decided to build a patio in a parking lot next to a major road. It?s the perfect place to collect your thoughts and plan before the actual start of the weekend.

It was busy but the team was efficient and organized. The music playing was meh, but the atmosphere was chill and nice for a Sunday afternoon.

The staff was pleasant and fulfilled our order quickly. The decor inside was different than other locations I have visited but looked nice. I did not sit down so I cannot say it was comfortable seating.

So basically, me and my honey baby/sugar daddy were out for a quick coffee run. we approached the doorstep, the joint was fuming with BAD vibes, we didn?t know what to expect. in fact we got the unexpected! as i ordered my womanly juices, cashier treated the Barbara before me with kindness? as it came to be my turn to order the mood completely changed for the worst. after an hour of waiting in disbelief and dismay, Jennifer was called. now let me be clear Jennifer arrived after us yet she was called before us. A RANDOM stranger. not nearly as important as us. they utterly ignored and violated our superior presence. another unbelievable and shocking terror was the audacity of them not even stocked on napkins. we need them for our leakage. am i worth so little? am i so easily overlooked?

I visited this location on 9/10/2022 a little after 9am. The store was clean and well organized, lots of well stocked merch. I was actually stopping in for a reusable cup, and was helped by a very kind and gracious employee named Donna! Donna was very welcoming, and took the time to explain how the Starbucks rewards app worked (and could be used to redeem points and get free merch in the future . She never got pushy or rushed, even though I asked a lot of questions : and I didn't feel pressured to sign up right away. The beverage I got in my new reusable cup was a Apple Crisp Oatmilk Macchiato and the barista did a great job! The drink was sweet and refreshing, and the perfect twist for a seasonal alternative to the PSL. Overall, I highly recommend this location for delicious drinks with fast/friendly service and I will definitely be back on my next trip thanks to Donna's excellent customer service!
