Review

Sara I. (Jan 10, 2022):

“I don't typically write reviews on Starbucks… but this is a brand-new location right by Meadows Place in Stafford. It’s in the same plaza as Aldi. This Starbucks is very clean, quaint, and minimal. Cleanliness is such a huge factor right now, and they completely ace it.

I walked inside rather than visiting the drive-thru. Staff was friendly and whipped me up a warm café au lait—with a small drop of vanilla bean flavoring. At SB, it’s called a café misto, so I keep that in mind. It’s probably the one drink I like getting here. They made it tall, frothy, and fresh. The beans didn’t taste sour or rancid.

When in the area grabbing groceries, I may revisit again. I’m glad this part of town is thriving—it makes the experience pleasant and comfortable. Until next time.”

Alief's Crisp, Refreshing, Creamy Pick Me Up Drink on a Sweltering Afternoon Review: Sara I. - 7/7/16 "Super crisp and creamy milk tea! I stopped by today after noticing the new cafe on my drive to the dentist. It was such a hot day and I needed a cold and refreshing drink. My go to drink is always milk tea anywhere | go. Magic Cup serves up some standard milk tea that isn't too watery or too sweet. So it isn't the best I've had, but as I mentioned, its standard, which isn't
