Starbucks Reserve Store

Starbucks Reserve Store was a place I always wanted to visit, and it did not disappoint at all. I was shrouded to see the flights of martinis with real alcohol. I love this place and I can't wait to return. I highly recommend this truly special coffee house fur all Starbucks fans. The Reserve rocks!!

The Starbucks SoDo Reserve Roastery in Seattle is a coffee lover’s paradise, offering an elevated experience that goes beyond the typical cafe. The space is expansive and beautifully designed, capturing the brand’s heritage while showcasing innovation in coffee. From rare brews to experimental blends, every drink feels like a handcrafted masterpiece. It’s the perfect spot for anyone looking to explore coffee on a whole new level.

We have been to several Starbucks reserves (one in Capital Hills and one in Shanghai). Both are much bigger than this HQ one with more food varieties. However, nothing can beat the vibe of this one as it is right beneath the Starbucks global headquarters where the coffee magic is constantly brewed! The atmosphere is cozy and warm. Staff is super friendly. We fell for the PSL marketing campaigns by ordering one Pumping Spice cold brew and one affogato lol. To top it off, we also ordered a raspberry cheesecake. We asked for the least sugary dessert and this was recommended. It is delicious and can fill you up easily. The only slight disappointment is I wish they have more specialty beans or souvenirs just made for the HQ. Could be a good revenue stream.

When you’re in the area… GO! The food looks amazing and be sure to get drinks that you can’t get at your local “Bucks”. Def get the barrel aged cold brew. It’s perfect for sipping and enjoying.

I loved it here! The food was great (pricey, though). I loved my decaf coffee. They had great selections of Starbucks merch.

We had a great time at the Starbucks Reserve in Sodo. It was pretty busy, but we managed. We made our own seating area by the fireplace and had a great time with the whole family.

Yummy! Just had to come to the birthplace of Starbucks. Only thing I’ll note that I wasn’t exactly thrilled with was that we had asked for the drinks to go & one hot & one iced. We received both hot for here. But I’ll come back, I especially want to try the cocktails

Thought I was going to the bigger, more touristy location and ended up at the Starbucks HQ... surprise!!! Great atmosphere but a little confusing on the ordering process... just head to the velvet ropes for food or bar service. Glad we ended up there.

This Starbucks Reserve Store is beautiful and it's attached to Starbucks HQ. I tried to peek in and you can only see the lobby area but they had security. Its a nice building but super far from the downtown area. The coffee shop area is very large and comfy with lots of seating. It wasn't super busy the morning I was there. Love the outside seating too. Whiskey Barrel Aged Cold Brew - this is so delicious, it is so smooth, you don't even need cream or sugar. You can only get these at the Reserve stores. Starbucks Reserve Pumpkin Spice Latte - I'm not a big PSL fan but the special coffee intrigued me, it was delicious! Better than the usual. This is seasonal and this is a bit late of a review, so I'm not sure if they will bring it back. Service was quick and friendly. Parking is convenient in the big lot. Recommended!

This Starbucks has a **pretty** atmosphere, with a cozy vibe that's perfect for getting some work done or relaxing with a coffee. The place is **clean**, and the seating is comfortable, making it a nice spot to hang out. As for the staff, they were **okay** -- not exactly rude, but a bit **unhelpful** when I had a question about a drink. They seemed a little distracted, which wasn't the best experience. The **drinks** and **food** are pretty good, though, which is what keeps me coming back. Everything I've had has been up to the usual Starbucks standard -- nothing extraordinary, but always reliable. Overall, it's a decent spot if you're in the area and just want a quick coffee or snack. The atmosphere is the biggest win here, but the service could definitely use a little improvement.

TL;DR: We were booted from the Roastery before we could enjoy the drinks we ordered. Unpleasant manager identified as Taylor acted with bias. We met a bartender at the drink counter and placed an order. He was super fun, engaging, and shared his recommendations of what to get. He began preparing our two drink orders. Then, Taylor, the manager of the Roastery, stopped service for us before other patrons in the store. He claimed there was a hot water issue which required them to stop serving food or beverages because of health code compliance. Yet, other patrons were able to place orders and receive their beverages up to 10 minutes after we were stopped from receiving service. If this was a public health issue of remaining open, all service should have been stopped rather than selecting specific individuals to halt services. What's unclear to my wife and I is: 1/why were we targeted, 2/why were other patrons who hadn't yet ordered beverages targeted (instead they placed orders and received drinks). I don't know if this seemingly discriminatory engagement by Taylor was because he was frazzled, lied about the reason why we were stopped from receiving service, did not understand the situation, or something else. Eventually, Taylor did place an employee outside to warn others that they won't be served before they entered. His service staff were also clearly confused when Taylor casually came by stating the issue. They actually apologized on behalf of him; he did not apologize and offered as half-gesture of a free pastry. Also note that this is the new location at their corporate headquarters. It is a shame our first experience here and their first review is one tainted by discrimination, confusion, and unprofessionalism.

This Starbucks listing on Yelp is for the company's world headquarters, technically known as "Starbucks Center," at 2401 Utah Ave S in the SoDo neighborhood of Seattle, south of downtown. We met our friend, who works here, for lunch and got a tour of the campus. Our visit happened to coincide with Starbucks' 2024 Fall Launch event, which we attended. I had an absolute blast. Being from Atlanta, when I Googled this place and saw the building, I was immediately reminded of Ponce City Market in Atlanta, a former Sears catalog building turned mixed-use development. The Sears building in Atlanta opened in 1926. This building, which now houses Starbucks Center, opened in 1915. It's also a former Sears catalog building. Starbucks moved its headquarters here in 1997. From a public/tourist perspective, there's really not *that* much to see here except for the outside of the building, the office lobby, the Starbucks Reserve store, and a Princi bakery-cafe. Visiting the very first Starbucks store at Pike Place Market and the Starbucks Reserve Roastery and Tasting Room nearby at 1124 Pike St will suffice if you're an out-of-town visitor. The advantage to Starbucks Center is it's not nearly as crowded. Lines were minimal to non-existent during our visit. We had lunch from Princi, with drinks from Starbucks Reserve, outside on the HQ patio. The food and drink were terrific. Read my review on Princi for descriptions of what we had, what the ambiance was like, and more: https://www.yelp.com/biz/princi-seattle-6 After registering as visitors at the front desk, our friend gave us a tour of all nine stories at Starbucks Center. This place was a maze. The offices were neat and what you'd expect of a giant, hip corporation on the West Coast. There were all sorts of layouts and rooms/offices, from the now-more-traditional open floor plans with dividers to breakout rooms and fun common-area spaces with various decor and memorabilia from Starbucks' 53-year history. All break rooms had real espresso machines. I liked how the stairs were integrated with the main spaces, instead of being isolated into stairwells off to the side. This made the floors feel more connected and seamless. This design made it feel "natural" for us to walk up all nine floors. More office buildings should be designed like this. I think it was on the 8th or 9th floor where I helped myself to some self-serve iced coffee. A couple of the more memorable places we visited at HQ included a coffee bean tasting room. It looked like a lab. We weren't allowed to enter if we had any perfume, cologne, or other scents on because it would affect the professional tasting/smelling that was about to happen. We also visited the "top-secret" Tryer Center, Starbucks' innovation lab. We actually had to exit the main building and enter a different building from the outside to access the Tryer Center. It had its own separate security and check-in desk. Unlike the front desk at the main building, we had to sign waivers before entering the Tryer Center. In there, they had a mock Starbucks retail cafe, complete with a drive-thru window and menu "outside." There was a lot of activity. One group of employees looked like they were testing out cafe machinery. At 2:00pm, lots of people made their way to the Fall Launch event where Casi Cielo seasonal coffee was served along with a smorgasbord of Starbucks' food from their fall menu. The latter included items like Starbucks' Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins, Pumpkin & Pepita Loaves, and Raccoon Cake Pops. Yum. There were live presentations, both on-stage in person and virtually from team members who video-conferenced in. It was like one of those Apple events where Steve Jobs took the stage to unveil the new iPod/iPhone/iPad, complete with lights and camera crew (albeit on a smaller scale), or dare I say, Living+ from Succession. We took home complimentary bags of Starbucks' single-origin Guatemala Casi Cielo coffee beans from the event. Also, my wife purchased a bag of Starbucks Reserve Knob Creek Bourbon Whiskey Barrel-Aged Guatemala coffee beans ($42). We had both at home and they were excellent. Outstanding quality and delicious. Everyone was friendly and seemed to be in good spirits (good morale).

My work team had a coffee tasting here in the back private-ish room, and had such a great experience! I always try to go to the Capitol Hill location for an elevated Starbucks experience however it's always so busy. This location at the Starbucks headquarters is much easier with free parking in the front for a certain amount of time and no line. The food and drinks we ordered were all delicious. I'll definitely be frequenting this location more often!

What a fun experience! Glad we stopped by to try some "different" coffee drinks that you can't get at your local Starbucks. We tried an ice cream coffee as well as a coffee milkshake and both were delicious. They also have a large food selection but we didn't sample any of those items but they did look good. Tons of seating with comfortable chairs and a variety of seating arrangements that include long tables, high tops, and even bar seating. Service was a little slow as they had only one person taking the orders once you were in line. You do go and pick up your drinks in a different area and that didn't take too long. Also a pretty good selection of items in the store.

The Starbucks reserve in SoDo is a comfy cozy experience. The menu is unique and there are an incredible array of treats and eats! The staff are friendly and are able to answer all your questions. They are patient and knowledgeable. The seating is varied and sometimes it's hard to get a table but if you are lucky you can grab one by the fire!

I LOVE the experience here! Great coffee options, knowledgeable and friendly staff, many additional food options! I am not sure how many different ways of brewing they have. The one we tried was expensive, an old brewing technique that looked like an alchemist shop. It also made the best coffee we ever had, without any bitterness, flavors were subtle and identifiable. The coffee came in small pots that we poured like cups of sake, and made the overall experience that much better. Thank you Starbucks for a great Father's Day weekend experience!

I say, upfront, that I am a big Starbucks fan, and I also have heard from others, for a while now, that this specific Starbucks Reserve site was "special". But honestly, I had no idea what to expect, or how very special this place is. It blew me away. This is not like any other Starbucks I have ever visited (and I've been to a few "Reserve" sites, which were all pretty wonderful). This specific Reserve site is HUGE. And it is way more than just a "coffee shop". Way, way more. First of all, it is enormous. Cavernous. Beautifully designed and laid-out. Super spacious, with high-end finishes. Lots of seating. And despite how open and large it is, it feels intimate. Like a good place to go with a friend or a date, for a tête-a-tête. Next, this is not just a basic Starbucks coffeeshop serving the basic Starbucks fare. No, I consider this to be a full-fledged restaurant, as well as a bakery, as well as a cocktail lounge, in addition to a coffee/tea-house. Yes, this site is all of that. They offer a huge selection of sandwiches, wraps and meals (including shakshukas). They offer a ton of delectable looking desserts and pastries. There's a separate bar, with a separate bartender, making artisan cocktails with espresso and coffee. And of course, there's a separate bar with baristas, making coffee and tea beverages. They give you a disc when you place your order, and this disc lights up when your food and/or drinks are ready. (I've not seen this technology at any other Starbucks). They have phenomenal Starbucks merchandise for sale here that I've not seen at any other Starbucks, not ever. Really luxurious shirts and scarves, and funky and cool puzzles and bookmarks and decks of cards and more, with vibrant artwork and graphics. Really beautiful and unique. The downside is, these items are crazy expensive. I just couldn't justify spending $78 US on a scarf, regardless how lovely it was. But the merchandise really is of high quality and not seen elsewhere. The staff were all super friendly, and wow, what an amazing place! Even my friend, who isn't a "Starbucks fan", really loved this place and his specialty drink. Just a crazy good place!

Stopped in for breakfast on a Saturday morning before heading to my next event. There was no shortage of a varied breakfast selection of sandwiches, shakshuka, avocado toast, pastries and fruit. I opted for the Porchetta, Pesto & Egg breakfast sandwich, vanilla custard brioche and a tall Americano. The sandwich was delicious and flavorful with an over medium egg, a little runny yolk. On this day, they were only serving iced drinks due to some mechanical issue with the espresso machines. However, we could get a hot Americano, which is what I opted for. Finished off the meal with the vanilla custard brioche ...ate every bite! Compared to weekday visits, I prefer the Saturday visit when it's less crowded and easier to find a seat.

This is an update on our review from a year prior. Food, drinks and service is still superb! Some items, like their Farro Salad could be seasoned a tad more but overall, very healthy and filling. Very hearty! It's also easy to carry, as we took most food on the plane. The sandwiches needed no condiments, as the Focaccia and Croissants were well buttered. Both had levels of salinity that made for the perfect bite. A bit of Arugula and Red Onion would have made them perfection, as it would've cut the richness in both. The Mushroom (Funghi) pizza was massive and abundant with earthiness. The Bartender was on point, friendly and knowledgeable with other good suggestions. He was also swift to support the food servers. Great teamwork ensuring each guest had their items in a timely manner. Overall, you cannot miss this location, even if you're not a coffee drinker.

This is the location of their headquarters in Seattle. I always thought that it was at their first location at Pike Place, but it's here in the industrial part of Seattle on Utah Ave S. I just wanted to thank corporate for sending me an invite to join their Odyssey app last year. It was truly so much fun. I learned so much about the company and the coffee that they serve through games and interactive videos. I enjoyed touring the Reserve location inside the Empire State Building in New York the most. I also got to earn points and stamps in the process by completing journeys. I redeemed my 4th quarter points for a T-shirt. I received the shirt and it's gorgeous. I can't wait to wear it. Thanks again! I'm looking forward to what 2024 brings.

I did not get to try the food, but I did try one of their Americano and it was definitely better than a normal coffee at Starbucks or other chain coffee shops. The drink was ready in 10 minutes, which is longer than a usual Starbucks, but I think the quality is higher so it is worth the wait. The place is pretty big and spacious, I sat there for 30 minutes chatting with my friend and it was not too loud. It was very comfortable and not over busy. I will definitely visit again when I come to Seattle.

So the fancy spot at their corporate offices. It was big and bold. Good service. Lots of selections. Drinks are good and made correctly. The food was tasty. My wife felt the sandwiches were just plain. But I enjoyed them. We always stop here whenever we visit Seattle.

What negative thing could anyone say about this Reserve Store? NOTHJNG!!! It is amazing. The food is so unique and d good! The setting is so relaxing and just a great place to read a book and chill. The service is always amazing and today we had Tyler. My wife and I could not have met a nicer, more friendly and informative person. He made the visit even more special! What a great day!!

What a great spot! I'd driven by a few times and didn't realize there was a Reserve here. It's a large space with plenty of space to hang out. There are quieter places, outdoor, and more communal spaces too. So many different options that you won't find at your local Starbucks. The food was great! I got the pizza and was pleasantly surprised. More like thick focaccia pizza. Filling and tasty! I loved the cold brew fight and enjoyed the Whiskey Barrel Aged the most. We didn't try any of the coffee inspired cocktails but will next time! Staff were friendly and helpful. They have tons of beans that are specific to the Reserve locations. I had some questions and they were very knowledgeable.

Came here cause my sister wanted to try their special menu. And we tried a couple desserts and they were delicious!! My mother had a coffee drip switch it was a little strong for her but good. The workers were all nice! The place looked nice, the only thing for me was the music was a little loud for me but that's just me.

I really like the interior of this place. They offered a very fancy/modern baby high chair which was so cool, it matched the interior which I would have never expected them to do. I also got a bunch of savory sandwiches (smoked salmon and procuitto and cheese) both were very tasty and the breads (Croissant and buns) were fresh and fluffy. Their drinks are what you expect , got the matcha oak milk and it was very nice. Definitely a must visit in my books for a quick nice breakfast.

[Note from reviewer: This review was originally designated for Starbucks headquarters, next door to the location in this review, but changed to this location by Yelp.] Laxman, with your advertised charge as new CEO , with a "background in leading and advising global consumer-facing businesses"..."Building on the company's commitment to...sustainability, and...uplifting humanity..." how do you explain that most stores are eliminating recycling?! The store pictured (Chicagoland) is the only store left in the area that still has a recycler. Employees themselves are very upset about it. How does your stated corporate charge match in any way with dumping thousands of tons of plastic into Earth? Words are nothing without action. Do better!! https://cleanwater.org/starbucks-and-our-plastic-pollution-problem

Love this place. Everything is great -- the friendly staff, the atmosphere, the clientele, the featured brand coffee. It's a Deluxe Starbucks experience. But... The annoying club music is waaaay too loud. It's like friggin' nightclub volume. Not needed for a place you just want to chill. I'd love to hear appropriate background music -- like classic Jazz, vintage lounge classics, Sinatra. Miles, etc. ANYTHING but OONCE-OONCE-OONCE

Next door to Starbucks HQ this is an oasis of coffee beyond the regular stores. I only drink coffee early in the morning it was appreciated that it was open, well-staff and full of interesting coffees and treats. The opportunity when coming here is to find a coffee you might not drink every day. I asked, and the barista noted what I liked and made a great suggestion. Yes, that's a standard in Seattle, but the ambiance and quality are worth the trip. Make the pilgrimage and go outside your comfort zone with coffee.

If you're looking for the reserve roasting location, that's still 10 minutes north of here. If you are looking to grab a cocktail, bite, or a coffee at the corporate headquarters, then you are here. Best way to describe the ambience is "organized chaos". It's busy, things are spread apart, yet still feels cramped, and options are limited compared to the reserve roasting location. Pro tip; if you are here for a cocktail, do not stand in the long main line. We did and were then redirected back to the bar after waiting in the chaos. Ugh. It sucks to need to place your coffee order in one line and your cocktail from another line. Their systems are connected and when my coffee was ready, I picked it up at the counter to the right of the bar. So... why not my cocktail as well? //end of rant. If you were curious about the Oleato golden foam, espresso martini, let me save you the trouble and recommend that you get the regular martini instead. The olive oil is definitely overpowering and it makes the drink very off balance. If you enjoy the strong flavor of extra-virgin olive oil in your drink, then go ahead. However, as much as I love it for cooking, I would not recommend it for drinking. The Hazelnut Bianco Latte was much better. I recommend getting it as it comes and not adding any additional sweetness because the drink is already fairly sweet at baseline. It does not have the strong hazelnut flavor as the Barista suggested, but it is still a nice latte that borders on a fairly rich dessert. Service is fast, all things considered, but this is not a quiet spot by any measure. It's touristy, trendy, and bustling. Stop by for your obligatory follow op, but head to the main reserve roasting instead if you want to immerse yourself in the many other unique reserve options that Starbucks offers.

I have been to the Sodo Reserve twice this year and both times I have not enjoyed it. The flow of the space is very confusing and the line gets long quickly because there is no visible menu or food case until you get to the front of the line. Both times, my food has been good but nothing special. I don't like coffee so I ordered tea lattes both times and they've managed to make the worst tea lattes I have ever tried. The music is also so loud and playing Sam Smith club music at 9am on a Sunday. I feel like this place doesn't know what it's trying to be. The only pros were the great merchandise that was on sale and the open seating options.

Such a fun experience! The atmosphere is so welcoming and warming when I walked in. To the left is where you can get the pastries and order your coffee to the right there is the long coffee bar where they serve up your drinks, and they are very cognizant about how loud it is in there, so they yell your name! I ended up sitting at the bar and enjoyed a espresso martini and a very nostalgic peppermint mocha. Both were absolutely delicious. I was happy that my martini wasn't too strong. It was absolutely perfect. The service there is impeccable and everyone truly enjoys their job and you can definitely feel it . I highly recommend stopping. This is definitely a great spot!

At long last I have visited a fancy schmancy Starbucks "Reserve." Oh my gerd. In hilarious contrast to where we ate lunch a few blocks away, which was empty, this place was packed, and I'm sure that was still nothing compared to in the summer (there are beaucoup seats outside, which is neat). It's classy and busy and loud. But you can still enjoy the usual hipster music with the pleasant rumble of the crowd just below that. Interestingly, and kinda cool, was that almost no one was here by themselves. For sure, it's a tourist trap, and also for sure, a ton of Japanese visitors. I found the sort of circle back phenomenon fascinating - Japan is now justifiably famous for having incredible coffee shops (to include fancy schmancy coffee as well as delectable treats) - and yet I suppose one could say that Starbucks started it all. Ironically though, the shops in Japan are probably now even fancier than ours -- and that includes this one which, while very cool and finally something impressive in a Starbucks (sorry I do not find the regular stores "all that"), it was still lacking in certain ways. The flow of traffic was confusing. Presentation of food options was a bit spotty in the glass cabinets and the sweets selection was woefully small. We chose the olive oil cake (I figured, they're into this olive oil thing right now so might as well); I think it probably appeals to a foreign clientele and people who don't like chocolate ;) For me it was quite bland but my husband liked it. We were a bit overwhelmed as to what cool drinks to get and I would have liked a bit more advertising. I guess you have to look at the app or the QR code thingee, which is fine - we'll do that next time. Would have liked to order something that took some extra artistry to create and then to be able to watch it created. But it's still pretty much an assembly line system here just like the regular stores. So it's a learning curve, probably. We enjoyed our time there, liked just hanging out, looking at the decor and people watching. The coffee was of course good and it was fun to browse the merch. Liked the high ceilings and overall look of the place and appreciated the variety of spots available for seating. Cool that they have a couple of "quiet rooms" (I guess?) but the funny thing about them is they were pretty much monopolized by one party of people and no one else went in after that. Will go again especially now that we know how easy it is to get to and that there is a large free parking lot.

Such a swanky vibe. The lighting, the wood finishes and great atmosphere are such lovely parts to the Reserve experience. The customer service was excellent. Lovely folks working here. The food looked soooo good I could hardly wait! Then, the avocado toast with bacon was awful. The whole plate was ice cold. It wasn't avocado, it was runny guacamole. The egg/bacon tasted like they were made an hour ago and left out. For as pretty as the photo, so disappointing. I also ordered the malt. One lump of gelato in the middle that never got mixed up. The flavor is great, just needed 30 seconds in a blender because it was really a float. The cost was $22 for these two things. I think it was maybe an off day. Won't be back soon.

First time here and we got in just before we closed so we just asked for the martini flight and went on our way. They were so good and the bartender took his time making each one.

Came for the pumpkin spice espresso martini, but they were completely out. I went with the original, but was so excited to try the PSL version. For food I ordered tiramisu because I panicked. I didn't realize how much food they had, and after seeing the pizzas I need to come back to try some of those. The tiramisu was really good! Though $14 was a bit steep for a slice of cake. Parking was easy, wouldn't recommend it for big groups/gatherings as the table clusters are pretty small. The staff was helpful and nice in my interactions with them. The lines for food and drinks are separated, so it was kind of odd having to get into another line to place the rest of my order. Parking was super easy! Downside it closes at 7

Such a pleasure experiencing this. Beautiful interior and atmosphere. Location is easy to find and looks impressive from the outside. Way better parking and location than the one in downtown as parking is free for two hours. It is a bit weird ordering as you have to order food from one place, bar items from another place and pick up in a third place. Otherwise, it's Starbucks business as usual. Friendly service and you can pay via Starbucks app. So super convenient to get points and enjoy a lunch. Outside of the regular Starbucks menu they have additional bakery items: desserts and breads, they have a bar with coffee cocktails and regular cocktails and entrees like pizzas, lasagnas and chicken. Food is good, but maybe too olive or rosemary heavy. The entire vibe is very Italian and it hits spot on. For coffee connoisseurs, unlike regular Starbucks locations they have actual espresso machines here.

I meet friends her for a time to chat and share a good meal. Food: 5 Stars Service: 5 Stars Atmosphere: 5 Stars If you need a place with a chill environment and want to talk over coffee/tea and a light meal I haven't found a better place. Good parking close to down town, but out of the congestion. They have many items that are not available at a typical Starbucks. I usually go at off peak times and have always had a great place to sit. It can get busy and seat is limited. I will be back.

Wow! This is the ultimate experience for me! I saw the indoor fireplace, huge variety of menu options including eats, drinks, adult drinks, and coffee experiences all which cannot be experienced at the local stores It didn't stop there... I love the variety of seating area including closed off windowed rooms, inviting comfy seating and fun decor Light rail link is a short 10 min walk or park in their lot Outdoor seating is also available

By far the most fabulous Starbucks I've enjoyed. You can grab your coffee, pastry or danish, or whatever you'd like to eat, or even a cocktail! The service is amazing per usual and the ambiance was warm and cozy! Love Starbucks!

Very different. We could not figure out what drinks to order. The app was not updated or maybe there just wasn't a menu to choose from? They were not ready for our tour group however the people were very friendly. Not sure I would recommend or go back.

There are currently two Starbucks Reserves in WA. This one in SODO is smaller and less crowded compared to the one in Capital Hill. Their menu includes alcoholic drinks and variety of food. I always enjoyed the oatmeal that they offered in the morning. Friendly staff. Ambiance is always good with the fireplace and beautiful interiors. You can also find a quiet area if you want to study there.

Went here with some friends when they were visiting the area. There are a couple Starbucks Reserves in Seattle, and this one is at Starbucks HQ, but it's the smaller Starbucks Reserve compared to the other one. It is smaller and has less items and merchandise compared to the other one. I will say we all really enjoyed the food and drinks. Everything is like an elevated Starbucks and is fresh and delicious. However, the negative of the store is the checkout process. There is only 1 check out area for food, drinks, and merchandise. Therefore, it gets very long quickly. We originally ordered food and drinks, and ate in the store. However, when we wanted to leave and purchase some merchandise, we had to get in line again to purchase a couple merch items, and it was such a hassle to wait again to purchase it. There should be a separate self check out area for merchandise. It's definitely a deterrent from buying things when I see that line. But overall, we all really enjoyed this experience and would totally come back to a Starbucks Reserve.

I was so excited to come here and check out this Starbucks reserve, but I'm leaving a bit disappointed. I've been to the other location in Seattle on a past trip and really enjoyed my time. This location is attached to the Starbucks corporate offices and has a really large parking lot with a 2 hour limit. My biggest gripe about this place is the lack of organization. I had MAJOR anxiety trying to navigate around. When you fist walk in there is a bar to the left and food straight ahead. The only area that appears to be for ordering is by the food section. After waiting in line for about 5 mins and making it to the front of the line we were told we could not order alcohol from this section. This area was for food and non alcoholic drinks only. A sign indicating this would have been nice. We ordered the hazelnut bianco latte from this area and I snagged a seat while my husband ordered me the oleato golden foam espresso martini from the bar. While waiting for your drink they give you a buzzer, however, they do not specify where to pick up your drinks. Lastly, I was In desperate need of a bathroom and again, this was very difficult to find as there are no signs indicating where this is located. It's located behind the bar in an area that looks like it's meant for staff only. As for the drinks, the hazelnut bianco latte was very good and not too sweet. 4/5 overall. I took a gamble and ordered the oleato golden foam espresso martini instead of the regular espresso martini and it was unique but not for me. 3/5 overall. In general, I wouldn't come back here but if you are looking for an elevated Starbucks experience and can handle the chaos- it's worth coming at least once.

This place has a fun atmosphere, interesting food choices drink combos BUT ... it's Starbucks and their Espresso machine has been down for 4 days. Really a bummer for those seeking a specific Starbucks experience. This just ruined it for me. Here in the city where it all started at a Premium location. U could have done so much better.

I'm sorry to have to use this format but your CEO has left me no choice. First of all stop taking your salary off the top. Secondly I can remember when a business paid its employees, rent, vendors, suppliers, etc. then after everyone was paid what was left the boss got his money. It seems that nowadays the boss takes their money out before anyone gets paid! No wonder you're crying that you have to pay your employees because it will cut into your salary. Maybe you should look into another line of work for yourself. I know that you have said that to your employees yourself! Well until you get onboard with your employees, I'll be getting my coffee and GLAZED doughnuts at Dunkin'

We stopped in for a quick visit.. Service at the deli counter was welcoming and quick. I got some snacks to-go for my family, everything looks super fresh and smells great! We also stopped by the bar, Paris was our mixologist. She was the best! Friendly and knowledgeable.. She explained the different drinks to us. That little extra time and attention made our experience 5 stars!

On a Saturday afternoon in May, my family and I visited here to check out the place. It has parking in front of the reserve. As we entered inside, very cool vibe with fire pit, pastries, food items, bar, and meeting room spaces. We lined up as my brother saved a table at the fire pit. The menu is very different than regular Starbucks. We ordered pizza, lasagna, chocolate tart, cookie, cannoli, dark chocolate mocha drink. I must say all the food items taste really good which I was surprised. The prices are more expensive than regular Starbucks. They have a huge kitchen where they make the food and pasties. They also have free water dispenser and utilensels. We sat there and enjoyed the atmosphere. I spent the most money here trying different items.

We only had a short visit to check this out. We bought some stuff and some of the bulk coffee Love the layout and design of this space I would love to hang out! Quite a few unique offerings including coffee and alcohol For the volume of visitors it ran efficient and fast

Didn't know there was a second Starbucks reserve in Seattle!!! This is the corporate headquarters so plenty of free parking in front. This place is smaller than the other one so less crowded and less merch to choose from. It was pretty chill here and I'd recommend signing up for their tasting classes since it's not as busy. Same drinks and everything were available to buy here and I learned we could pay with the starbucks app! Drinks: Starbucks Reserve Boulevardier -Woodinville Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Campari, Carpano Antica Formula Sweet Vermouth, Vanilla Bean Syrup, Scrappy's Lavender Bitters $14 Cold Brew Malt -our favorite drink was a milkshake with cold brew and ice cream! Passion tango tea Food: 4 Stagioni -prosciutto, mushrooms, artichoke

I would think that the headquarters would be bigger and in a better part of town . It looks kinda seedy here. They do offer a lot different items that do have at your local Starbucks. Our pizza was ok nothing special . The chocolate chip cookie is worth getting . For some reason they don't offer pumpkin there. So if you're looking for your pumpkin latte you're out of luck. It's fun seeing all the different merchandise that they have. True Starbucks fans will like this place.

Amazing!! This place is unreal. The selection of food and drinks is incredible. I had a coffee whiskey drink th at was so smooth and delicious! My wife was like a kid in a candy store. She is a Starbucks fanatic. We had probably spent enough money to buy our own franchise. It was a great time.

The selection of coffee at the Reserve was truly impressive. They had a wide range of single-origin beans from different regions, each with its own unique flavor profile. The baristas were knowledgeable and passionate about their craft, guiding me through the coffee tasting process and recommending the perfect brew based on my preferences. I decided to try their signature Reserve coffee, and it exceeded my expectations. The aroma was rich and enticing, and the taste was smooth and full-bodied. It was evident that the beans were of the highest quality and expertly roasted to bring out their distinctive flavors. In addition to the excellent coffee, the Reserve also offered a selection of gourmet pastries and snacks. I indulged in a freshly baked croissant, which was flaky and buttery, complementing the coffee perfectly. Also if you come before 4pm, you can take a visit of the 1st and 2nd floor of Starbucks headquarter!

Overpriced. Ordered a salami sandwich - bland and serve ice cold yuk. The order took 25 minutes for 2 drip coffees and 2 sandwiches - ridiculous. One and done not worth it.

This is for store 14009 in Irvine CA but they don't seem to care so posting to a corporate store might receive some help. Hi Shelly, I ordered ahead this morning with a Bacon, Sausage & Egg Wrap and a Grande Cappuccino Extra Dry with Oat milk. I order this every Sunday Morning at your store on the way to church and it is consistently made wrong. It is never Extra Dry. It should be shots of espresso with oat milk foam. I asked at Starbucks to make sure what I keep in my orders is what I want to get. This morning I finally said this isn't made right. My food item was made way ahead of time the cappuccino took way longer than the time it said and nobody was acting with any sense of urgency. Finally the lady that was the cashier (I think tammy or a name similar) refunded me the cappuccino and then went to charge me 3.45 for a grande coffee. I said i just would take a coffee and this is purely the mistake of Starbucks at this point because 1. the staff doesn't know what coffee drinks are, or 2. they do not read the line items on the cups. I said i'm not going to be charged 3.45 for a cup of coffee that you didn't ask me the size I wanted, and it was a mistake that you guys made my drink incorrectly and then my food item which is a wrap has gotten cold during this whole time. I asked for your card which then seemed to be very hard for them to find all the sudden which at most Starbucks they are sitting out. Robert the shift lead then took over and just apologized and did nothing. So looking back you wasted 2 drinks, my time, and made me late for my appointment and I got a food item that wasn't up to par either. Thanks a lot and disappointed!!! Oh and so glad I purchase over $1800.00 of gift cards every year to hand out supposedly i hat these individuals as I'm making them go through these same experiences.

We were visiting from California and as people who love our Starbucks, we were so excited to visit the corporate headquarters! This is a reserve store with many options for different food and drink combinations. There is a lot of comfortable seating and a fun vibe. The person who took our order was upbeat and super helpful. After 20 minutes of waiting for our food buzzer and it not buzzing, I went to look for our food. I found it sitting out in a public area with our order completed. I touched our pizza to see if it was hot and it was not. I explained I didn't feel comfortable taking the food, not knowing how long it has been sitting out with so many people passing by. The server begrudgingly said they would redo the order. I was very apologetic for asking, but I just knew I wouldn't enjoy my food knowing it had been sitting out. Not to be paranoid but who knows who could have sneezed on it while it sat there. My husband confirmed he saw it sitting there for at least 10 minutes, he just didn't think it was ours because our buzzer did not go off. Things happen and the buzzer malfunctioned, no problem.. What I didn't understand is how food can sit there for so long without someone working there wondering why no one was coming to get it. It could have been easily remedied with some understanding and customer service from the staff when I expressed my concern. I tried to apologize for my worries and they just mumbled they would fix it. Finally, I'm fairly certain they took our food around the back and brought the same food back out to me, the pizza was still cold. Also we ordered a dessert that we were told there were only 2 left when we ordered it and when they brought the food out there was still 1 left in the case. At least I watched them remake my drinks so I could enjoy those. In summary I expect a lot more in terms of customer service, especially when you literally work in the same building as your top leadership.
