Review from Jennifer W.
Round Rock, TX
1/10/2012 1 Check-in Here
I haven't lived in Temple since the 90s, but I visit frequently to see my parents. Inevitably, I end up at this Starbucks (or the other one across town.) I swear, there WERE local coffee shops in town when I grew up in T-Town. But the big money shut them down. Ah, the little man.
So this Starbucks is pretty much like any other Starbucks you have been to in the US. There's nice lighting, over priced drinks, and comfortable seating. It is larger on the inside than many, since it used to be a Taco Cabana. And it also boasts a drive through. I know many out-of-towners hit this one up since it is on the I35. (The I35 access road is called General Bruce Drive in Temple for some confusing reason.)
One problem with this Starbucks is that it is right next to the high school, so it can be a bit overrun by teenagers. Gosh, I sound like an old person.
The workers are friendly, so that's good. -

Probably the best location for Starbucks in Temple. Easy access right off the Interstate. Probably has the largest seating area (the one in Target has a fair amount, too).
This location was an old Taco Cabana converted into a Starbucks, to give you the idea of its size.
Otherwise, typical Starbucks. A little too much money for good coffee :) -

Nice place although it tends to be a bit dirty outside and in the bathrooms. A bit more care to the appearance of this place would make it a lot more inviting. It is a nice stop along the way as you head up to DFW or back to San Antonio but if they took a little bit more care in maintaining the place it would make a world of difference.

As long as I've been living in Austin and making the drive up and down I-35 to get to Fort Worth for family visits, I've stopped at this Starbucks on the way up the road. I usually leave Austin very early in the morning in order to avoid our hideous rush hour traffic, so by the time I hit Temple I'm kinda sorta just waking up (don't tell the Highway Patrol dude). The service is great, as is the coffee.
One reason I have a soft spot in my heart for this particular 'bucks is this: last spring, my very much beloved Dad, who had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma about a year earlier, began his slow descent to the "other side." My sis called me up at school and told me to come home. Now. I tearfully explained to my students and administrators what was happening, and exited the building barely able to drive myself home. I got packed, hit the road somewhat more composed, and as usual stopped at the Temple Starbucks for some caffeine consolation. I told the girl who took my order what was going on, and she was so kind to me. They were having a drawing for a really nice Cuisinart coffee maker, so I put my name in the hat.
My precious pappy passed away 2 weeks later, and as I was at my mom's house after the service, I got a call on my cell phone...it was Starbucks, telling me I had won the coffee maker! It was a little, teeny bright light at the end of a very sad, dark tunnel.
It was just luck of the draw, but I'll keep the fondness in my heart for this store and keep stopping by en route. -

I love this Starbucks!
EVERY time I have been in there the people have been so friendly. I have carried on entire conversations with them sometimes!
It also doesn't hurt that they make sure to add tons of chocolate chips to my Java Chocolate Chunk Frap!
Yummy! -

This Starbucks should be on the map as a Texas tourist attraction.
If it is the one I am thinking of - right off I35 - they have very comfortable chairs to sit in - and large window view.
It would be a perfect place for a small business meeting - with two people - or a first date break-the-ice kind of place.
I love this Starbucks!!! -

You definitely know your in Texas when you order from this store, they screw up my order about 70% of the time. Staff is often new- so turn over must be high here. Never anywhere to sit. Long wait times on the drive thru, even if you are the only car. If you are going to pay $6 for a cup of coffee, then you probably want what you actually ordered? I suggest the one on the loop by Scott and White. Awsome staff and they know what they are doing.

ATMOSPHERE: A Typical Starbucks with no real added sophistication. Small and cramped so the person who purchased this franchise just got the bare bones and is making a lot of money because of the very very very crowded drive through. Hope this person is ready for competition across the street with another Star Bucks.
WAITING: 5-20 minutes at drive through. -

A barista named Lauren who works here is very friendly.
