Baristas are very nice and attentive here. I always order ahead, come in and pick up. This last visit, altho the store was busy, the gal asked if I had wanted whip cream. She multitasked, adding whip cream and more nutmeg to the top. One of the best Starbucks around this area.
Nice little spot near Nob Hill shopping center in Alameda. Has outdoor seating for the warm weather. Close by the "river" area of Alameda, nice to walk around or even jog.
Out of all other Starbucks on the island, this is not my favorite. The store frequently looks unkept and the service isn’t always the best. But there’s ample parking, it’s conveniently located next to the gas station and many stores - park once and get a lot of errands done all in one place and then fill up on the way out.
There’s also a large outdoor patio- perfect on a hot day while out with your doggies.
