Great place tucked in just off the road as you got towards stateline.
Good news is that it opens at 5am.The bad news for this early-rising coffee junkie is that they dont make dark roast until 7am - WHAT? The coffee equivalent of a fast food chain is usually better than this. Barista, if you want to call her that, insisted on calling a medium coffee a grande - so pretentious of Starbucks to invent their own names for sizes, but most Starbucks employees dont beat you over the head with it. Tomorrow Ill wait until 6am and go to Black Cabin Coffee instead.
Always a friendly crew here. Nice outdoor seating area and you cant beat a free ice water and free Wi-Fi.
Brooke O. Was super friendly and helpful. What a bright spot in my day. 💓🌞
Love these guys! Great service, quick and they get it right. Keep up the good work.
We didn’t know the closing times, our fault, but thankfully we were still able to get in and then we had a cashier with the most impolite attitude! We get it, it’s closing time, but they were so impolite, she had a rainbow mask, and she made us feel REALLY unwelcome. Really unwelcome! Thanks for the “fun experience”, really hope you treat customers better. Thanks lady.
Nice location, ample parking. Variety of stores around. 2 bathrooms at this location and there is outdoor seating. They do have Lake Tahoe mugs so go get em!
Worst Latte and worst Mocha Ive ever got in Starbucks. The Mocha tasted like kids chocolate milk and the Latte... it was just milk. Check your order before pick up or even better, go across the street to the other Starbucks.
A very good Starbucks branch. I’m not a big Starbucks fan but the staff here were very good with the orders. Came regularly during my trip to Tahoe and the staff was always very friendly and almost never messed up the orders. It’s also the best coffee shop I found in the South Tahoe area, so do have to give it 5 stars easily
Nice strip mall corner location, with elevated outdoor seating.
Received my free birthday drink today and used my points to get one for my husband. I love me some Starbucks.
I came here to get something warm to eat and drink. My cravings were definitely taken care of and my belly comforted :). I had an almond milk hot chocolate which was not overly sweet and very enjoyable. I also ordered an oatmeal which was really good. I love that the oatmeal here is a decent amount (probably 3/4 to a whole cup) with healthy toppings. The traditional oatmeal is my fav. If there were dried strawberries on the side it would even make it better! Yum!
This is a busy location and the staff are super efficient and friendly
Beautiful out door patio area, clean ....
Awesome customer service and super friendly staff! Got a great non dairy hot drink rec from the really sweet cashier. They have super fast service and it’s very clean! 1 million stars ❤️
This is probably the busiest Starbucks with the longest weight times on mobile order Ive ever dealt with! But its on the strip and its worth the wait when you need a good coffee 😁
A very busy Starbucks so order ahead on the Starbucks app. If youre having a hard time finding the location, its in the Raleys parking lot.
Hot coffee and fresh pastries and snack foods. Fun and friendly staff. Very efficient 🙂
Love this Starbucks. In the Raley’s parking lot which is convenient to pop in and out before skiing at Heavenly. Baristas are so nice and manage the crowds really well. Five stars for service, products, cleanliness and accessibility. I just didn’t give 5 stars becauseThey didn’t have good indoor seating even before the lock down. And it’s usually freezing and snowing 6 months out of the year.
Extremely efficient for the masses of people they deal with.
We had a big order and the barista working around 8:45am made every drink perfectly from adding that extra scoop of strawberries to making sure the coffee’s had the perfect about of syrup! i wanted to tip him but he was making sure everyone else’s drinks were perfection.
Berry Hibiscus 🌺drink and the feta breakfast wrap great. Good service 👍
One of the few local Starbucks with a Clover reserve brew!
Friendly staff. Great place.
Got to have some flat white 😋
Good place to people watcj

Amazing! Great Service! Tasted great!💋☕
As always great coffee and friendly people
Worth the walk to another coffee shop. Trash coustomer service. I understand your busy. But if someone gets oatmeal they need a fork or spoon, if someone has two coffees and 2 baked goods they might need a tray or a bag. Its so busy here cause its managed poorly. Bad layout. They make all the bake goods and let them stack up then being about 10 out at once
Fast and delicious as almost always
Cashier told me I cant reload my Starbucks app
No no no no, drive a bit more and take yourself to the Starbucks inside of Safeway just a few mins away. Rude service, some red head starbucks worker with attitude can ruin your day instantly. Save your mood and day and get your coffee fix elsewhere, you wont regret it. Had to endure that attitude for 1 reason only, i had promised a friend a mug and it was the absolute the last top we could do on our way back to socal. Smh
It was nice just like a starbucks is! Fully crowded with some nice shakes and coffee
The sandwiches are almost half the size of normal starbucks and my drink tasted bad too 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
Good service
Its a starbucks. What else can I say
. Internet says they open been closed for hours. 6 am is closed?
Coffee addiction satisfied
Amazing blends. You can also customize your coffee to match with your personality. They have quick service and you can also use their app to order ahead of time and just walk in grab your coffee looking like a queen/king!
Super long line wait and no drive through. Order ahead or go to Peets Coffee inside Rayleys
Good products but with as many ppl working expected the order of operations to flow better especially when order of five is in front and two single orders behind just saying
Poorly laid out for COVID times, all the customers were touching the mobile orders and had to go inside... was completely packed. Steer clear!
Very good people work in their
Good coffee Good place
Products: four and a half starsCustomer service: four starSome of the workers arent the most friendly. Theyre not mean by any means but some dont seem to care about making a more welcoming environment. One word replys, very by the book. All in all its a good starbucks but if Im not in a rush I do go to the one closer to the gondola.
This is one of the busiest store but the employees are good and do their best.
Called ahead and was ready when I arrived . Friendly servers and quality drinks. No complaints with this starbucks.
They fill the mobile drinks first and they sit there either going flat or getting cold. They had about 30 mobile drinks while I waited 45 minutes for mine. One person who ordered after me, in line, was given his beverage before me. They dont call out the names at all as the in-house orders come out.I asked the barista if any of the venti drinks could be mine and she told me that they were all mobile. Fifteen minutes go by and a guy barista asked me for my name. I told him and he gave me my Americano from the ones that had been sitting with the mobile orders. It was now luke warm. They didnt even asked me if I wanted sugar or creamer. Just handed it to me, turned around and went about his business.Not cool at all. They need one person to call out names and deliver the beverages. The manager needs to tweak the system a bit. Yes, they are jamming, but the flow needs work because they are causing customers to be upset. Ill just go elsewhere. Theres another Starbucks right behind my hotel, less than a block away.
If I could, I would give this Starbucks location 0 stars. Long wait time and rude service.
Warm, great artist does all the chalk boards. Shes very talented and gift as artist is being expressed. She should do art on Starbucks coffee bags, but management doesnt see the gem😎🤙🤘
So sad because I’m local and I really like this location but today I came in for my morning coffee (my favorite cold brew) and was met with poor service. I placed a mobile order at 9:06am. It said prep was 3-7 minutes. At 9:17am I asked if it was ready. They said they were “still working on it”. I figured they were busy so I sat back and waited. I asked again at 9:27am, same answer. 9:31am coffee came out. 25 minutes to poor a cold brew!! And everyone walked by and looked at that mobile ticket. So should the prep time be updated for mobile orders? Disappointed in you Starbucks.
This was a very pleasant experience. Our wait was really short, and the drink was perfect. Thats not always been the case, but I was pleasantly surprised.
Centrally located at state line south Lake Tahoe: great service and my drink was perfect. Everything clean and tidy... Had a relaxing time.
Starbucks and Tahoe .. perfect pairing!
My favorite Starbucks store to visit in Tahoe! Gorgeous store and the staff is always so friendly. Ive had Cole make my drinks several times now and theyre always perfect and delicious!
Extremely busy. With that, its built as a standard Starbucks so they are only as efficient as the quantity of equipment. With so much business, they should relocate and expand in order to keep up with the pace of business. Otherwise, the customer service was great. I had a large order that was filled without mistake. Just plan to stay a while to receive your drinks.
Nice visit this afternoon. Cheerful employees enjoying doing their jobs. Was able to decompress with a Grande Cold Brew and Classic Coffee Cake. Everything was great! I’ll be back.
This is probably the best Starbucks in town out of the few that we have. It does however usually have a Queue. Drinks are good and consistent. Remember to bring your own reusable cup!
Crowded so I strongly advise ordering ahead.
Im not much of a coffee aficionado but the prices could be sliced down a bit.
Staff friendly ..
Always a good experience for beans, coffee, and breakfast sandwiches.
Went in this morning. Quite busy but only a handful of people ahead in line, 5 mins to order. What I didnt realize is how many people where milling around waiting for drinks. Between the mobile orders and the people ahead of me it took over 26 minutes to get a cappuccino and a latte. Ironically I had just run the Tahoe 5k and it took me less time to get across the finish line than to get my coffee. I get that stores can be busy but if the cashier had told me Id be waiting close to a half hour for my drink I would have gone elsewhere. A hostess at just about any restaurant can do that, why not here? Disappointing.
Really rude girl at the counter.
My favorite coffee ☕。
The attitudes assess less than positive. Quite a bit of arrogance and not very friendly. Not clean.
Its Starbucks! 💗 But Im very disappointed they dont have the sugar-free mocha syrup for coffee and frappuccinos anymore! 😮
This is a very slow Starbucks and also busy. Id do a mobile order next time. About 10 minutes before arrival.
Have fun paying the $55 parking ticket if you stay in the lot for over 2 hours. Itd be nice if Starbucks made an attempt to inform their customers that the city if South Lake WILL give you a ticket.
They moved pretty quick but I visited on a holiday weekend and the wait was about 30 mins. The staff quality and fast its just too busy a place when events are going on. Only rating a 4 to tell folks to visit one of the other less busy Starbucks or (preferably) some place local.
So the starbucks was ok, they had someone new who was training. I found out they charge me extra for an out of season drink that has 1 fewer ingredient and takes no extra time to make. I also saw a sign posted for carcinogenic ingredients in their coffee and not going to be ordering anytime soon. I posted the sign and dont know why this wouldnt be at other coffee shops unless Starbucks has specific ingredients that other places dont use. Still love their snacks, baked goods, etc. Now Im curios how many things that they sell have those ingredients though.
Best customer service at ANY Starbucks Ive been to in a long time. Traveling today, and this is the 3rd one Ive stopped at, but the first one I was greeted at. Thats nice.
The line looks long but it isnt that long. The people here are patient and kind. Though the space is rather small, so its not meant for larger parties.
Best Baristas Ive ever meet. Place is clean, employees are fast, honest, and friendly.
Busy, popular place and nice decor. They offer an array of cold food items, that one can grab and go. Plan on waiting a bit for orders, no matter how small.
Took way to long to be served today. Girl was overly nice to where everyone behind the customer she was taking care of was hating life. Not to mention people walked out because of here. I was there at 1:45 on 11/17/17. Fix you stuff Mgr..
Okay honestly Starbucks is hit or miss with me when it comes to their products and Im usually not the type of person to ask for a different drink. That being said I really hate the taste of mocha (you can tell me its just chocolate but it tastes different it does NOT taste like chocolate) and I ordered a drink that I didnt know had mocha in it and when I asked for the same drink without mocha in it youd think I was a complete idiot the way the girl asked me so what do you want? Starbucks employees act like we should just know whats inside all the drinks and then act rude when we dont instead of trying to help solve the issue and its really frustrating.
Customer service here is definitely lacking, also it’s Starbucks, so I usually expect the consistency to be pretty balanced out, this last time I came here the people at the counter gave me so much attitude, so I should have known they were going to mess up my coffee, super disappointed & wont be back.
Store seems nice enough. However I think this location gets too much tourist traffic. The few times Ive gone there, there must have been 20 or 30 people waiting. It only works if you have a mobile order.Staff seems nice but under the gun due to the large number of people that can show up.
Crazy busy, but the employees were all working really hard. They seemed to have a system down. It was 10 mins to get my drink, but I get it. I just appreciated their hard work, and they all were smiling:)!
Fast service, friendly baristas.
Very convenient location
Very nice staff and great drinks.
Usually Starbucks is the bomb. This time not so much. It was very busy so we ordered our drinks online with the app. They totally messed up the orders. It shouldnt have been so difficult since it was in writing. When I went in to tell them that the drinks were wrong she says, oh, you want me to make it again?“ Uh, I yeah...
Pricey$$$
