Popped in for a drink with a friend here and I got my usual - iced shaken passion lemon tea with extra lemonade. My friend had a white chocolate frappucino and both our drinks tasted good. My friend also had a vanilla slice that she didn't really enjoy as the pastry felt a bit like cardboard. This particular starbucks is usually quite busy so it does take a little while for you to get your order. There is seating upstairs which is good but they still use plastic straws so I think they should make the change to paper or metal.
Me and a friend got a frappe here this morning before heading off to walk around town and was quite upset with how long our caramel frappes but i guess it was okay considering there were so many people waiting for their coffees. All i could say is this Starbucks doesn’t make the best frappes as i’ve had better in others but was still good, a kinda bland taste tho. The ambience wasn’t too big but would be fine if there wasn’t too many people inside.
Quick and efficient!! It is always extremely busy and packed with people, but it is a place where I always visit to get the chocolate or caramel drinks.
Food: one of the best starbucks in Auckland. There are cheaper coffee stores but really can’t beat in terms of frappuccino range and taste. Prefer to get iced drinks at starbucks over hot coffee.
Atmosphere/Interior: Lots of seating and small tables. It is often full though.
Service: friendly
Parking: city. only visit when walking past.
Food: 4/5
Service: 4/5

This Starbucks is always so busy regardless the time of the day. The drinks came out very quickly. I really enjoyed the hazelnut hot chocolate drink:) and it was first time Starbucks staff spelt my name correctly 😅
Staff were all friendly and looked like they were having a good time, place was clean and well stocked. The mint tea from Starbucks is the best mint tea around :)
I always order the same thing and they sometimes charge differently without explaining. When I ask they answer "the machine does not read a tumbler discount for now is this okay?" I would've said yes if they'd informed me before I ask.. anyways their drink is good
This shop always super busy and need to wait around 10mins to get your drinks. But quality is not bad, still a standard quality flavour.service is ok
Yes Starbucks is absolutely mainstream and somewhat over-rated. The one thing i can guarantee is that they do make very good iced lattes and coffee. If your wanting something sweet but don't want the added guilt try a iced coconut latte with 5 pumps of sugar free vanilla, this will change your world.
Came in today after lunch because friend needed some caffeine but instead we got the strawberry shortcake frap. The strawberry wasn't too sweet or strong. It was perfect. Whipped cream on top made it taste like a milkshake. They spelt my name wrong but the staff were friendly.
A very nice branch of the popular coffee chain. Came here during their happy hour- half priced frappucinos and ordered thr peppermint mocha frappucino. Was sweet and had a delicious distinct taste. It was very busy at the time I went due to the happy hour, however I was very impressed with how well the staff handled the high customer basis and I did have to wait very long at all to be served and to get my drink.
Queen st Starbucks is my fave always get the drink right and taste amazing I've been too many and some are too sweet or tasteless. They make it perfect every time :)
Good place to grab a coffee in the mornings before uni or work. Pricing is the same as any other Starbucks and their service is pretty good! Quite a big cafe as there's an upstairs area you can sit in.
Love that they close midnight. When in need of a coffee fix late night you can always count on these guys come through with the goods. Bring on Queen st it is hard to find a park so I normally park around the back of the stores.
Got them 50% off so it was totally worth it. It felt kinda strange coming to this outlet since most of the people queuing were mostly asian. I tried the Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino and my friend got the Double Chocolate Frappuccino. Super delicious and yummy, must try more different flavours next time!
At least one of most student top spot to go for after a long day at uni or a buskers on the street.
Clean and staffs are very attentive. Just right in the middle of town which is very convenient. Finally, there's more than two tills which makes the queue even shorter.
Great location in the CBD with awesome customer service. There is quite a range of food to eat and drink here. You can also get a seat here upstairs and could catch up with your friends while enjoying a coffee of frappe.
Prompt service and fast and didnt have to wait long for my coffee to br made. the staffs were friendly. good cozy warm environment to enjoy a coffee.

So warm and inviting this location. The decor is warm and homey, to me anyway. Went here for a 6AM Mocha Java Chip Frappe. Loved it, as always. Quality and that cream and chocolate sauce top notch. Had a buy one get one free Frappe voucher so saved $7.90, bonus! Also got a Flat White for my dad which he really enjoyed. Definitely shall be back.
Have been here so many times during uni days. It's always so busy here. Staff are friendly even though it's so busy, service is pretty quick considering the amount of people they serve when it's busy.
I like how they have seating upstairs. That's a good lounging area to catch up with friends over a coffee or just to chill out.
Frappes are good here but a bit messy and sticky on the actual cup.
We went to Starbucks along the Queen Street. We love this café. We think everyone knows Starbucks, so it is easy to find it.
We ordered Caramel Frappuccino. It tasted good and sweet. The staff was kind and friendly. We thought it was similar to Japanese one. It is near the ELA, so you can go there easily after school.
However, there were some bad points. The Frappuccino was a little bit expensive though it was worth drinking. Also, it is located in a big city, so many people were there and it was noisy. In addition, we could not use Wi-Fi service.
We highly recommend this café if you want to drink something delicious.
This was a great Starbucks in the middle of Auckland city, all the staff were extremely well trained and provided exceptional fast service.
This is over 2 levels and provided ample seating and ethere was no requirement to lingre around and wait for a seat at all.
They also provided great souvenirs too.
Access to wifi was patchy but with the comfy couches I can't complain too much.
Located in the CBD, this one's one of the busiest outlet in Auckland.
Always love coming to Starbucks. You get to have a great time with friends along with some really good coffee. Friendly staff though at times the service is slow but that's only when its too busy. If the management could do something about it, then that'd be great!
This starbucks is always, like ALWAYS full of people. Some people are just sitting there and not ordering a drink, especially the seats outside. The drinks are average, the same old starbucks. This is one of the starbucks that has a lot of seats. Just annoying that it gets so hectic outside due to people waiting for the stop light and also the people dancing outside in front of starbucks/burger king/sketchers.
Tonight I tried the new drink chestnut white chocolate truffle. It was delicious! I definitely prefect that than the strawberry red velvet mocha. The cinnamon rolls are my go to for something to eat. I like this location because of their upstairs couches (when vacant)
Their service is pretty good as compared to other Starbucks outlets. Ordered a chocolate frappe and I was not disappointed, it was great. Please don't judge on the frappes bit hahaha.
Love Starbucks, close to uni and loyalty cards are amazing! Service is great and fast, wifi and heaps of seating. Had a muffin as well once and really enjoyed it, quite expensive for a regular thing but a nice coffee is worth it!
This long has been a favourite place to hit up since waaaaaay back haha. Great location, friendly, and attentive staff ☺️
Ordered my default, double chocolate chip frappé 😍 always delicious, not an overload of chocolate. Generous serving of cream on top.
Love it! One of the better Starbucks branches ☺️
Nice central location to catch up for a coffee. I like the seating on the upper level. Service here is generally pretty good too.
My only gripe is that their wi-fi can be quite unreliable (in terms of speed as well as the data limit) - to me this is quite important when it comes to a Starbucks because I think of them being as much a work space as a coffee shop.
Better than most Starbucks in terms of their frappucinos. I usually order a double choc chip and this branch always gets it fast but always tastes nice. They have two floors so it's actually very big and has plenty of seating space.
This starbucks branch is where me and my friends go for our so-called "starbucks wednesday" haha. I always get the caramel Frappuccino and ofc it is always good, I have tried others but I always and will go back to caramel frap. One downside is that it gets so packed everytime we get there but either than that just your usual after uni starbucks wednesday :D @zomatostudents
One of the two Starbucks branches in Queen Street. This one is different just because it has a second floor- in case you want to get away from the busy vibe of the first floor with everyone walking in and out. This one is open till 12, just like the other Queen St branch which I think is appropriate for its location. The place is always clean and the seats upstairs are really comfortable! But I would say that this is best for catch ups instead of studying because the tables are a bit too low and small to put books in. They just misspell my name from time to time but who doesn't experience that right? One of the best branches I reckon.
This Starbucks branch is one of the better ones. The service is usually always friendly and they're open late as well! There are two floors at this Starbucks, and I love meeting a friend and just relaxing in the couches upstairs! They're usually taken most of the time, but if you're lucky you might get one as someone leaves haha. Coffee has always been decent at this branch, and hardly anything beats a Starbucks frappuccino! This branch is super busy all the time though, but will definitely visit again.
This STARBUCKS on queen is more busier then other Starbucks near AOTEA SQUARE but not GOOD. But the good thing is that seating area is very good upstairs.very nice place to sit upstairs when you are with friends.However,in afternoon it's very hard to get good seat.
All things are fine.

My wifi never connects
The splash page keep loading.
However wifi of people outside is working
The atmosphere inside is good.
This Starbucks outlet is open late and has got seating on two floors. Food/beverages are standard. Staff is overall friendly. Will go again.
It is a usual place for me to catch up with friends or to enjoy a bit of alone time. I love getting a green tea latte and sitting in one of the couches upstairs. it is quite busy most of the time I have been there and it is difficult to always get a nice seat, but I guess it is in a prime central location and Starbucks is just generally well loved by students and working professionals alike.
Not a fan of the coffee, but the frappes and iced drinks aren't bad. Good place to hang out as there is a lot of seating and very central. Can get very busy.
This ones my favourite out of the various Starbucks locations in town. Coffee is always decent, fast service and a good amount of seating with floor space upstairs. Good choice if you feel like going to a cage later in the day as most things start closing.
Ordered a iced flat white..3ple shot..nice..cold and crisp..served super fast...nice atmosphere..right in d middle of the bustle and bustle of queen street..a coffee lovers paradise..
Pretty OK place if you like Starbucks--I'm generally not a fan, but I do like their green tea lattes without added sugar. Green tea lattes aren't popular in other coffee shops, so whenever I get a craving, Starbucks it is.
I come to Starbucks quite often to get my daily dose of coffee to wake me up for class. Being that I usually go to Starbucks in the morning, the employees are very nice and friendly and are very bubbly. I really like the customer service that they provide which makes it easier to order coffee early in the morning.
Every time I go to Starbucks, I would like to order Green Tea Frappuccino with cream. It is fantastic to taste the fresh cream and the green tea flavor. My boyfriend also recommend the vanilla Frappuccino. It is sweeter than the green tea one, but it is also great to have one. Nice visit!
A premium coffiee shop for good coffiee, though the coffiee still tastes good, its still missing the service that a single coffiee shop has><

I ordered the limited edition mint cookie crumble mocha frappuccino as I was curious to try this seasonal drink they'd been marketing. You can also get a biscotti spoon for five dollars to go with your mocha frappuccino. I was disappointed by this drink since you pay considerably more than a usual mocha frappuccino but it's really no different apart from a sprinkling of oreo cookie crumbs and two shots of mint syrup I couldn't see or taste in the entire drink. I like how you can get your own straw, spoon or cup holder by yourself after they've given you your drink. Saves them time, and also you get to take what you'd like. Starbucks also provides the usual great presentation and delicious taste, but I just felt like the service at this branch was a bit lacking. When I enquired about the lack of mint taste, the lady there just shrugged and I haven't received a reply from the company following my complaint almost a month ago. Opt for a simple but delicious plain mocha frappuccino instead, everyone.
Warm and inviting Starbucks with comfortable seating. Friendly service and willing to answer questions. The steak and cheese hand pie was tasty. And I was game to try the hot chocolate with dairy milk because I've heard that milk tastes better in New Zealand.
I came here a few times and I can say that the staff is very nice ! Even when there are a lot of people, they take time and are always pleasant and polite.
Drinks are always good, my favorite basic for everyday : caramel macchiato !!
Nice layout of the cafe: two stories with quiet nooks with enough space to spread your things out. Can get busy and a bit loud, and wifi can be hit or miss, especially upstairs. Staff was consistently nice and drinks were always great!
Green tea is nice. I got the small size ($6.1) add oat milk +$1. It s always busy here :) Sometimes very long queue.
Consistent Starbucks quality with other branches.
Can get cramped due to space/demand disparity but if you get a spot inside it's pretty cozy.
It opens till 10 so that's good if you're a night coffee drinker, they'll give you a gentle reminder when they're about to close up in 10 minutes.
Nice place to chill when you are tired. Quite busy during rush hours so the waiting time will be a little bit long and sometimes the staff will get our orders wrong. But overall very nice!
Shout out to Peter who made sure we got exactly what we ordered and for being super friendly. He is a great guy and makes Starbucks Queen Street a favourite place to visit 😄 see you next time! ☕
Nice staff. Sometimes you have to wait - that’s the only cafeteria open in reasonable hours in this town… Most others close at 5pm…
No competition around.
Best coffee in town. They make the yummiest coffee, frappuccino, Teas, cold beverages. I have tried their many flavours like (Triple mocha, strawberry cream, cookies & cream, mocha java chip, white chocolate mocha ). All of them where so tasty, delicious & amazing.Bit expensive but quality and taste is really good. The staff was very kind and helpful. Thank you.
This Starbucks is located right on Queens street and has great service. Lot of places to seat and plenty of options for tea and coffee. The seating area on top is specially more relaxing. You can wear alone or with a group and it is just wonderful. Totally love the friendly service. In my opinion it is a good spot for a group date too.
The most of the times Starbucks outside of US are terrible but here in NZ and especially this place they have good quality of coffees and drinks... plus the have pretty big variety of snacks and sweets... nice place always crowded and it has at the second story floor couches and comfy chairs to enjoy your drink and work on your laptop... I like to go there and spend some time...
excellent service, everything was delicious and something that I really liked was the decoration of the place, it was spacious and had beautiful paintings
