They are the morning people that make YOU a morning person. Great staff, they take your order with a smile and have your order out promptly. Best of all my spinach feta wrap is always hot and cooked through and through. Order ahead to beat the line that seems to form in the blink of an eye(8:04am-8:15isham). BEWARE: The parking lot. Oh dear the parking lot. I don’t know if it’s the Merrick-Mom-Mentality or what but you can lose a mirror or a limb if you don’t use caution.

I come here every morning for my espresso before work. As an avid Starbucks visitor it’s hard to find a staff who can all make a great drink. Kristin the assistant manager always takes great care of me! I have found my Starbucks home store and will now not go anywhere else!

Come here everyday since moving around here. Staff is super friendly and quick. They know all the regulars names and drinks. When the app is down they let me place the order over the phone the day after«Jonas» storm which was super nice!

During the weekends the lines are crazy long at this SB. Their service is always impressive. They almost have a huge table for everyone to sit and socialize. Cool atmosphere!

Nastiest staff. They talk down to you and don’t look at you when placing an order. I’ve noticed them talk back to customers a few times and make fun of people. So rude and gross — hire nicer peopl.

Really one of the worst Starbucks on Long Island. Left here with such a bad taste in my mouth. I hope their DISTRICTMANAGER reads this. I really do. This location does not even«feel» like a Starbucks. Something so «off» about it. When you walk inside– there is a big empty space in the center of the store. What for? Square dancing lessons? A natural child birth class? An exorcism? WTF? Ahhh… I think someone REMOVED seats & tables!? Why? So the night staff does not have so much cleaning to do? Again; WTF? O B N O X I O U S «Hoser»(hipster/poser) male staff members(night crew when we visited) can go take a flying leap into reality. Dudes; you’re not in the East Village – your in Merrick LONGISLAND. LOL. What are you trying to prove? Undo that man-bun in yo hair! Ptffffff… P. S. Your band SUCKS. P. S.S. You’re no different OR more special than any other person of your age group. You’re now exactly the same as ALLTHEOTHERPEOPLE who want to be «different». This Starbucks is oddly formatted(I think?) for«TOGO» orders only. There is a complete lack of seats & tables here. The view is ugly out the window too! Thinking of getting cozy here? No way Jose. The FEW seats & tables that ARE here are dire! Really awkward & uncomfortable. Seats HURT your butt! I wonder who determined this scheme of this location? Was this all intentional.

Nice Starbucks location in the heart of Bellmore. Offers all the usual fare/drinks and staffed by very friendly youngsters. Parking lot + a corner location makes access pretty easy. Pricing and selection are all on para with what one would expect. All in all, a location I would not hesitate returning to when in the area.

I went into this Starbucks and was waiting behind a man, there was no sign that said«line starts here.» I’m just standing there waiting for the girl at the register to acknowledge and take my order. Another woman walks and stands on the other side. The girl helps her. So I said«excuse me, but I’ve been waiting.» And she refused to take my order b/c I wasn’t standing in the right side. No one apologized or anything. So I got pissed and said«you don’t treat people like that» and I’m pregnant so highly hormonal and did call the girl the B word. One of the coworkers yelled at me. I apologize for using that word but I should not have been treated like that and they should’ve helped me. I will never come here again.

I have to thank my sister’s friend and our pal Billy Black for our Starbucks treat this morning. It’s rainy outside but cozy inside Starbucks. Thanks Billy Black

By Far The Very Best Customer Service of Any Starbucks around! I stop here at least 5 days a week; order up to 4 drinks at a time. They are mostly accurate. And if not, they correct it happily in great time! I’ve been to several around the U.S. Starbucks Merrick Rd… You have my vote! Thank you kindly!

Love their vanilla lattes and I’m usually not a latte fan. People are nice and they always get your order right. They’re quick and convenient. Not too shabby for an early-morning pick me up. Drinks are expensive but I guess you get what you pay for.

Visit Date: April 5, 2014 Since I started driving this Starbucks has been one of the locations I enjoy stopping by. It looks like it could be a little bit tiny from the outside, but it’s actually semi-spacious inside. They have a huge selection of coffees to brew at home including reserve coffees(which I always want to buy, but do not because they are expensive-even though they are definitely worth the cost). This starbucks also features clover brewed coffee. I found out about clover brewed coffee in Miami and I’m happy that there’s a NY location that has clover brewing. The baristas are also very nice and pleasant here, I love Roger, he’s the best barista of the bunch!

I go to Starbucks in NYC at least three times a week. However, I always come to this location when visiting my parents. I have never encountered a problem here until this morning. I know having to work on a Sunday morning is not enjoyable. We have all done it at some point in our lives! And clearly Elise was having a bad morning. We ordered a tall and a grande bold coffee. Apparently she thought we said tall in a grande so when we corrected her she gave us major attitude. She acted like it was such an inconvenience for her to pour one more cup. She then rudely told us we owed her more money seeing as she only charged us for the tall. In my experience at every Starbucks I’ve ever been to when they make a mistake they dont charge you, and typically always give you a free beverage coupon for your next visit. So we paid the difference and left. Then when we drove away the coffee was spilling everywhere because she had also overfilled the cups. That was the worst experience I have ever had at a Starbucks!!!

I will start this review by saying I am not a Starbucks coffee fan. I find that it is too bitter and strong for my taste. What I love about Starbucks is their food. I love their Bistro Boxes, particularly the protein one. They also offer great sandwiches for both breakfast and lunch that are pretty healthy. Their baked goods are awesome, although the calorie counts are usually out of control. I basically stop at this Starbucks for food and then head to Dunkin Donuts for my coffee.

Typical Starbucks location, prices are normal for Long Island. Nice staff, not a lot of places to sit. more of a «to-go» place. Nothing more to see here.

It’s not a coffee-bar, it’s a lifestyle! This location has found a way to employ the friendliest staff, which makes drinking coffee here extra-enjoyable. I had been drinking Starbucks«bold» drip coffee for years. I couldn’t understand those people who would pay $ 5 for their cappa-frappa-dappa’s. However, recently, they introduced me to the CLOVER. Wow!!! This thing takes all the bitterness and acidity out of the coffee, and just leaves amazing flavor. I still don’t drink«cappa-frappa-whatevers,» but my starbucks bill is almost topping my mortgage payment. This recently updated store is really fun to visit. It’s getting late as I write this review, but I’m pretty wired on caffeine. Go visit the Merrick Starbucks.

Look, it’s Starbucks, some love it, some hate it. I may be addicted to it, for while I don’t love it, I drink it all the time. So what does that say. And yes, I do like a quality cup of cold-brewed coffee, I’m hitting up Oslo all the time. But I keep coming back to Starbucks. Starbucks coffee is like McDonald’s french fries — a «meh» product engineered to hook you. Ok, well if not you, then certainly engineered to hook me! Anyway, this Starbucks is pretty good, better than many. I would give it three stars. BUT. BUT. They recently acquired a Clover single-brew machine for use with premium coffees. Expensive per cup, perhaps, but worth it for the flavor(and for the little show). And besides — a few years ago, Starbucks bought the company that makes the Clover, so you can’t get it anywhere else. TIP: If it’s summer & they’re doing the treat receipts, and you buy a coffee in the morning, the Clover iced coffee is $ 2 after 2:00. It’s included(come to think of it, I don’t know why it wouldn’t be, considering Frappuccinos are) Now, is Starbucks as good as it gets(five stars)? Maybe in the area(S. Shore Nassau County), and that’s a shame. But in general? No.

Yeah I know its just coffee… but to me it is soooo important. Its important that the staff pay attention to your order, ask the appropriate questions and answer yours as well in order to get it how you like it… and this location delivered. The girl at the counter was very friendly and attentive. She even answered a few local type questions for me about shopping and such. She seemed to know some of the regulars that were in line after us and chatted them up. It made for a warm and welcoming experience. We also used their free wi-fi briefly. Only downside was that it was pretty chilly in there(granted it was 100 degrees out but who wants to go from hell hot to freezing).
