Starbucks Reserve coffees are certainly the best quality you can find, for coffee snobs! Perfectly made... Had a Galapagos and Kenyan Reserve flat white, excellent!. I see the Reserve Bar as Starbucks apology to the world for making horrible, milky, huge sweet coffees popular to people who cant recognise quality.

Clean, quick, friendly. The Cappuccino was a bit lackluster. You either love it or hate it I guess.

Social distancing restrictions apply, sanitiser at the door. Does not diminish the awesome Gingerbread Latte and other festive drinks. Lovely outdoor area overlooking the Melrose Arch Christmas lights.

The Vibe that the Starbucks gives is amazing and it stays open quite late and that is a big bonus when the Xmas Lights are Displayed.the Baristas are so friendly and always great you with a smile. They have a wide range of hot and cold drinks to choose from and even some bottled juices if you are not in the mood for coffee based drinks and they even have some Snacks too. Great seating area can come with a group and there is out side seating too. The line to get to the teller can get quite long but it moves very fast.

This is a typical Starbucks, no better, no worse.I am giving a one-star review because the staff and management are clearly not adhering to local coronavirus safety precautions. I witnessed them allowing multiple customers to walk around without masks. They even served maskless customers.I left, frustrated, because I did not feel safe.

The Starbucks Coffee at Melrose Arch is a nice spot to meet up with friends and grab a cup of coffee. They have more than enough space to sit inside or outside and even have a quite separate area where you can sit and get a bit of work done. Overall they are a standard coffee shop providing everything you would expect, but if youve never tried Starbucks before it is worth a visit.

Would prefer more savoury than sweet eats, but the coffee was good. Also the author presentation once a month was cool to listen to. The day I went Ashleigh Giannoccaro was talking.

I endeavored this drink (Mango Black Tea Lemonade) all of a sudden today and l loved it and the lemonade flavoring with the mango go incredible together. I was to a great degree suspicious at first, yet it is by far the most of cherished refreshments.It is a bit pricey as anyone might expect from Starbucks drinks, yet it is legitimized, regardless of all the inconvenience! =)

My first!. Must say, the Melrose Arch one was the right spot too. Their decor is just so relaxing, and looks and feels like coffee. Seating inside or out. Clearly a spot to do business or a social get together, as a few were already doing early Saturday morning. We’d just done the Atholl parkrun around the corner. Dudu was very helpful in our selection of a bean coffee to take along with us. So a good first Starbucks experience. I’ll be back.

Unfortunately I cant give less than 1 star. Shocking service, walked in at 7 am to be told they only serve coffee at 7:30. Another client walks in at 7:10 to which they serve the person. I went to the counter to ask and the answer was the machine was not ready but now it is, well thanks for telling me I said!! Why open your business then at 6:30?? You then have one of the staff standing behind the counter singing, absolute joke honestly!!

Review №84

The service was okayish I guess. Although not busy and close to closing time, the team seemed a little frazzled as they took so long to wrap up our order. It was as if the guy didnt know how to operate the cash register as he missed a few items that we had ordered and I had to ask him three times if he had everything. I guess it was a long day though and maybe he was just tired as he was still very friendly. The sticky caramel bun that I had didnt appear to be very fresh either, it was quite stale.
