Its in The Presidio.❤ They had me at Presidio. We ordered a peppermint mocha to commemorate and remember my son Shane,a beautiful soul whom lived in and loved SF. We lost him 3 years ago to the day. The barista allowed us to split it in 2 cups so we could toast to him. The entire staff were lovely and helpful. I really like the vibe in here. Its a beautiful location.

A very not in your face starbucks. Quite hidden. Lots of seating inside and outside patio. First time there was a lot of washrooms actually. 2 stalls on the womens side. Lots of packaged options like legume and egg options, variety of sandwiches as well as all the usual stuff.

Truly lovely Presidio grounds for enjoying the best of San Francisco views and walking paths. Great place for kids. Nice service. Starbucks at Letterman campus.

Born with good looks and in the fanciest of neighborhoods, this Starbucks is born privileged. A.k.a. doesn’t try too hard, my matcha latte, felt lighter than usual. My almond biscotti stale- old money, old almonds.

They only fill single use plastic cups. I took my personal cup and they refused service in it. Do not recommend going here. Starbucks is promoting reusable cups but they don’t want to fill them

I have never understood why people glorify a coffee shop that serves mediocre coffee drinks.

The Starbucks in the San Francisco Presidio may be the most beautiful location of all.

Service is horrible!!!! So slowly, they always forget give you something, like spoon for oatmeals, grapes and stuff for out meals. Stuff is not friendly, they are rid for customers. Customers need to clean tables by themselves.

WORST Starbucks in San Francisco. They have no food in shelves always empty, place an order after waiting for over 5 minutes they tell you they don’t have it. Manager Ryan is very loud and likes to argue with customers. Staff carry loud conversations of what they did over the weekend and not pay attention to customers.

Come here nearly every day. Lines can be long, so be sure to just order on the app. Workers are friendly and the shop is clean. This is inside Lucas films campus so theres plenty of walking areas to enjoy the scenery.

The location is pretty much perfect with nice views in a pretty park. Interior is pretty clean and standard for a Starbucks. The staff however is not very friendly. Been here a few times and have never seen any of them smile. Not a demanding customer, I always just drink americano, but definitely dont feel very welcome.

The atmosphere is great. Clean, Quick Service yet calm environment, cool crowd. However, my white chocolate was Allman and whip tasted like bacon😲

Review №33

This is not your average Starbucks. I love it b/c of the peaceful surroundings of the Presidio with serene immaculately landscaped rolling hills, a nice lake with fountain, beautifully manicured trees and ducks peacefully floating around in the pond. Its a bit out of the way but worth the trek if you want a strong cup of coffee coupled with some beautiful scenery.

The usual Starbucks offerings (certainly nothing wrong there) but the location at the bottom of the Presidio is great and theres Yoda nearby.

Hidden among a beautifully landscaped national park! Relax on the patio, grab some java prior to the Yoda fountain visit, or just realize how awesome it is to have access to one of the prettiest locations for a Starbucks in the entire United States. Across from Presidio Social Club, get a temporary parking permit from the red coat security at Letterman/Lucas Plaza and enjoy the view of the Palace of Fine Arts!

I don’t leave reviews but this has been by far the worst Starbucks experience I’ve ever had in the world. Arrogant person taking my order. Who ultimately got my order wrong after a few attempts at ordering 2 simple nitro cold brews.

A Starbucks thats somewhat hard to find, but it happens to be one of the more beautiful location for the coffee chain. Food and service same as everywhere else, but the scenery is awesome.

One of my favorite Starbucks in the entire US. Views are super amazing. Although it can be very loud on weekends but overall its really nice. I love the dark roast sumatra at Starbucks.

Review №48

Normally this is one of my favorite Starbucks locations but today the service was a bit off. The gentleman preparing the food i ordered forgot an item i ordered and then tried to excuse it by saying it took longer when i ordered three orders of egg bites. I had to ask for forks because he didnt include them. This is a busy location and its always a long line which is usually balanced by warm and efficent service. Maybe it was just a bad morning.

Review №54

Stopped in for a cold drink and to use the wifi before going to Golden Gate Bridge. Staff were so strange, the cashier was friendly but didnt seem to understand what i said, and the barista was literally screaming peoples names for their drink. Not in a loud friendly way (like other starbucks) but actually yelling.The bathrooms were all out of soap and TP and were absolutely disgusting.

Better than most Starbucks I have been to. Not nearly as crowded, they offered a good recommendation for tea, and the location outside the building is beautiful.

Decent Starbucks. But take your coffee or snack outside and drink it on a bench in the park overlooking the pond and the Palace of Fine Arts in the distance.

Probably the best kept secret of this city - the Starbucks in the Presidio!Not gonna tell where it is, but it makes for a perfect stop on your Sunday stroll, surrounded by trees and meadows. It even has an outdoor area for the sunny days (yes, sunny days), and, for your convenience, a restroom that is not locked by a code.The staff during my visit was very fast, but not really friendly. Oh well, I can forget about that and just enjoy my Grande Pike out there in the sun.

Very cozy place in beautiful area. It was ckean with awesome emoloyees. The service was quick and it wasnt packed with people, so no lines. You have inside and outsude dining areas, and the coffee is flawless. One of the best branches in San Francisco.

Review №65

The service was standard, nothing out of the ordinary. Asked for room in our tea and our cup was filled to the top. Once my partner and I got settled in our seats I went to the bathroom to relieve myself and wash up. The bathroom stall, the only one available because the other had an out of order sign, unusable. Pee I presume was splashed all over the seat. Fecal particulate was visible around the toilet bowl close the the seat. I walked out and notified the barista on bar. The message got relayed and the girl who went in to clean it up only wiped down the seat. Frankly Im embarrassed, as Im an ex-starbucks team member and was QASA lead. I used the bathroom that time as I couldnt beat any longer. I let them know it was still pretty gross. I used the facilities once more before I left and same condition. If an audit would have happened I wonder what else would have failed besides the bathroom cleanliness?

Its beautiful location. But one of the worst Starbucks in Sanfrancisco USA. The employees in this Starbucks and their services are bullshit and sucks. And taste wise also its worst. Dont prefer this Starbucks.

Review №79

Beautiful location, really! Ive never been to a more perfect spot. Lots of outdoor seating with trees and flowers. BUT, the management here is horrible. Every time I come in theres a line out the door and only 1 cashier. The workers dont seem to work well together or as a team. Its like 6 individuals are doing their own thing, which impacts the service. For instance...today, there were 10 people in line, 1 cashier, 1 barista and 4 people restocking?!?!? I also swear one of the women working glared at me when I went to get half and half while she was cleaning the counter. Like full on glare... I actually started laughing because, geeze, thats a new experience.Honestly, I suggest some team building, communication and better management. Efficiency, lol. This Could be a fantastic Starbucks, but severely falls short. Im adding this to Yelp too, maybe they can make some adjustments?
