Pathetic experience due to seating arrangement. We were family of six decided to sip coffee but unfortunately there was no place due to unavailability of seats. Most of the seats occupied by certain set of segments that were working, studying or simply resting on someone’s shoulder. We requested at counter that 2 people have acquired table of 4 or 5 and could find a single table. However staff was cooperative, trying to help, move around people but due to full occupancy unable to do much. This is bit frustrating to see arrange like this. Hope this get improved over time.

Had the worst flat white at this place. Starbucks needs trained baristas and not some half hearted shift fillers who just make some random drink. Had to throw this entirely milk thing with a questionable degree of shot in it

Starbucks utterly botched my order, serving up a cappuccino and cafe latte that were nothing but overpriced cups of lukewarm milk. Clearly, they forgot how to make coffee or just didn’t bother.

Not crowded at all during weekday mornings. Crowd starts to pick up during lunch time when people come here to have lunch and coffee after their lunch elsewhere. Has free WiFi like most other Starbucks. Some of the seats have power points under the table, very useful if you need a quick charge or you're working on your laptop

Conveniently located Starbucks on the ground floor of The Central. Always crowded and not easy to get a seat. As with other outlets, always great if you manage to get yourself a seat. Might want to keep an eye on their promotions every now and then on their app. Always great if ya get 1 for 1 or any half priced offers.

Starbucks at The Central offers a cozy spot for a coffee break. The staff are great, especially the kind and chatty Vietnamese cashier lady who provides excellent service. My only wish is they'd be a bit quicker in clearing tables to keep the place tidy for everyone. Overall, it's a pleasant experience.

Tricky to find if you miss the right exit, as it is not accessible from inside the mall.
Weekend afternoons get crowded, but a seat usually opens up if you hover near tables with empty cups and laptop warriors. People here are surprisingly considerate.
Brace yourself for some rude service, as the elderly staff can be a little hard of hearing, but blame you for ordering a grande when you clearly said venti.

Starbucks was good, menu was a bit confusing and everything sounded the same. I had an ice chocolate which was good and came very quick. 👍
