Why everyone keeps coming back.

Nestled conveniently inside the bustling Fashion Square Mall in Sherman Oaks, the Starbucks at 14006 Riverside Dr stands out as a welcoming oasis for coffee lovers and breakfast seekers alike. This location expertly blends the familiar comforts of a beloved coffeehouse with the vibrant energy of a popular shopping destination, making it an ideal stop for both quick caffeine fixes and leisurely breaks.

Starbucks here shines with its innovative and trending beverage selections that tease the palate with exciting new flavors. Take, for example, the Iced Ube Coconut Macchiato: a visually stunning drink layered with full-bodied espresso, creamy milk, and a toasted coconut syrup that dances on the tongue. The highlight is the luscious ube coconut cold foam, crowned with delicate toasted coconut flakes, delivering a subtle sweetness with nutty vanilla nuances and a vibrant pop of purple that feels almost indulgent to sip. For those who enjoy a smooth and refreshing cold brew, the Toasted Coconut Cream Cold Brew is a must-try—a velvety Starbucks® Cold Brew finished with a luscious toasted coconut cold foam that whispers tropical warmth in every mouthful.

Customers regularly praise the staff’s efficiency and genuine kindness, even during busy hours. In fact, 'Patience Is The Key' marveled at how nine employees worked seamlessly to prepare drinks and food orders in record time, without sacrificing friendly service. Another repeat visitor, 'Corri Heil,' pointed out how employees go above and beyond despite the high volume, transforming a routine coffee stop into a consistently positive experience. This balance of professionalism and warmth makes the location feel less like a food stand and more like a community hub where your coffee order is both an art and a treat.

While seating and food options are classic Starbucks offerings, there is a comforting simplicity in their breakfast items, such as flaky chocolate croissants that satisfy a sweet tooth with every bite—perfect for pairing with your chosen handcrafted drink. The blend of quick service and cozy familiarity here encourages you to savor each moment, whether grabbing a to-go cup or unwinding amid a bustling shopping day.

In summary, Starbucks at Fashion Square Mall isn’t just another coffee spot. It’s a harmonious blend of innovative flavors, energetic yet warm service, and the comforting familiarity of expertly crafted coffee. Whether you’re in search of your new favorite Starbucks creation or a reliable morning stop, this location delivers with heart and efficiency—making each visit feel genuinely worthwhile.

usually good guys work there and everything is delicious. Today I ordered two drinks for me and my boyfriend. I received one drink, and waited for the second one for 10-15 minutes, after which I went up to the employee and asked why I was still waiting, maybe they had some problems? She said that she remembers that she called my name for a drink and without listening to me just left. first time I encountered such an attitude after which I waited another 20 minutes, uh, but nothing was prepared for me. rude workers, but not all. one girl remembered my name after several visits and I was very pleased.

I come here almost every morning and the people here are wonderfully kind. They get a high volume of orders and they still go above and beyond in service. Thank you so much! You all are fantastic!

I stopped by this Starbucks inside Westfield Sherman Oaks this morning and I had a good experience. My goal was to get a plain bagel with cream cheese but they didn't have any left. So I went with the chocolate croissant which I never had here before. This Starbucks is like a food stand so it's not that big. I came before the mall open so they were not busy at all. The worker who tooked my order was very polite and friendly during our interaction. I asked that the croissant get toasted and it came out quick. They also had some sample cookies so I took one as well. The sample cookies was good and I thought my chocolate croissant was good as well.

Using the mobile app is awesome. Drink was ready in less than a minute and the sandwich we got took just a few but we didn’t have to worry about waiting in line at all. #TakeThatJimmyJohns #RedonkLevelFast

I just want to thank the barista who worked yesterday from 4:00-4:30p.m who made my white chocolate mocha! They don’t make them like you do anymore! Yes it’s that serious when it comes to my coffee
