Crema's Take
“This is a Starbucks inside a hospital, which means you're getting reliable espresso when you need it most—perfect for those long waits during medical appointments or visiting sick friends. The coffee quality punches above typical hospital fare, and the location on the third floor makes it a genuinely convenient refuge during stressful visits, even if the service is more functional than charming.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. Quick-grab spot.

See all on Google →A previous poster said that this location was best for people in the hospital. Let’s be clear, this IS a Starbucks, but it is IN the Hospital, on the 3rd floor! The people were pleasant, but… it’s Saturday - I had to BS my way in, and I now have an orange wristband on my arm.
Stellar but best for people in the hospital
Superb espresso! On a 1-10 scale, 10 being best, their coffee is an 11! It always makes my TG doctor visits/tests a bit more pleasant. (Just don't expect friendliness; that's reserved for handsome men and/or hospital employees.)
