Free Write #7: My Starbucks Experience at Taylor Place

Starbucks at Taylor Place certainly has its advantages of being accessible to students on campus; however, one of the areas that this particular Starbucks lacks in is its quality control. On numerous occasions, I have bought coffee for a staggering $4.28 or above (depending on what kind of drink and the size I got), only to receive half or less than half of a cup when I received my drinks. This is unacceptable as not only do I encounter such inconvenient service but my colleagues have had similar experiences as well.

With this in perspective, the Starbucks at Taylor Place needs to perform better. My colleague Tammie expressed her thoughts on how something usually goes wrong at this specific location in which I totally agree with her. If it is not one thing, it's something else. Either their credit card machines down, running out of lids for the drinks, getting peoples drinks wrong and so on. Honestly, students might as well take the extra few minutes to walk over to the Arizona Center's Starbucks to avoid these conflicts. The only downside to this is that the Arizona Center's location does not accept M&G, otherwise, students would most likely be visiting other local Starbucks.
