Starbucks for Some
Visit date:
Overview
One of many Starbucks in Glasgow. Fairly small shop, and narrow, so might not be that easy to move through. Although all on one floor, some of the seating is on a raised level which is only accessible by some steps (about 3 steps, there is a handrail). All the usual things for sale, plus Christmas special drinks & cakes, during our visit at the end of December.
Transport & Parking
No parking immediately at it, you may be lucky and get street-parking nearby. It is in the middle of Glasgow, so could use multi-storey car parks. Also public transport to area - nearest train station is Queen St, though Glasgow Central not that far away. Buchanan Bus Station is also close, and underground if able to access that.
Access
The front entrance on West Nile St has steps only. You can also enter from the other side, with a door also on Renfield St. This has flat access, the doorway would be fine for most manual chairs, but may be narrow for power wheelchairs. Could also be tricky for some people to open the door.
Toilets
During our visit, the other toilets were out of use, so all customers were using the single accessible toilet. It wasn't that clean, which may be due to it getting used by more people than usual! The toilet had a radar key lock, but this wasn't getting used. The emergency cord was wrapped round a support handle (. . but now untied and sporting a new Euans Guide card!!) If you need a carer, it would likely be a bit of a tight squeeze if you also had a wheelchair in there. The toilet is also the baby changing facility.
Staff
Staff were friendly even though busy.
Anything else you wish to tell us?
This is a relatively small Starbucks, and generally may not be the most accessible for everyone to be able to use. There are others very near by, so it's seems there are options! However, staff were nice, and there was an enjoyable selection of Christmasy goodies!
