[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Starbucks pike place coffee to try out and I absolutely love the coffee… the chocolatey taste is just amazing! It’s got such a smooth flavor that you can drink it any time of the day! Also pouring it over ice is delicious! There are so many great possibilities with this coffee!

I had two samples of Pike Place within a gift basket. I finally tried them yesterday, and it was wonderful! The coffee is VERY smooth, no bitterness. I added a touch of vanilla soy milk to the first cup, and a touch of almond milk to my second cup. They were both delicious! No sugar needed! This easily has become one of my favorite coffees.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Starbucks brand coffee is the best there is out there. The pike place coffee flavor is one of their best flavors. I love how easy the Kcups are to use. I can easily drink 2 to 3 cups of the pike place flavor.

We are passionate coffee drinkers and very particular about the quality of coffee we use. Starbuck's instant coffee is the BEST tasting instant coffee you can purchase! It is perfect for daily use or an on the go cup. Starbuck's instants DO NOT taste anything like instants commonly found in grocery stores, and leaves one hard pressed to distinguish it from fresh brewed. Our favorites are the Columbian and Pike Place ... both are awesome !!

I have always drank Pike’s Place coffee and have always loved the caramel smell and taste. The last Pike’s Place I bought is reading Chocolate & Toasted Nut, tastes bitter and disgusting. Where did the caramel notes go? You may have lost a long-time customer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tend to prefer the blondes when it comes to Starbucks coffee, but this medium roast is so good. I enjoy a nice cup every morning and it gives me the energy I and wake up I need. Tastes delicious. I like to couple it with a french vanilla creamer and it's perfection.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm usually a fan of medium roast coffee with more mellow and complex flavors than dark roast, and I enjoyed this starbucks coffee too. I typically buy whole bean coffee and grind it at home, so I did feel like some of the freshness was probably lost in being shipped as ground coffee, but it's tasty and fuels my morning regardless.

Second special I get to try during last months discounts after the first of Verona horrible coffee. It brews foamy and horrible taste, makes a breakfast meal taste bad it ruins taste buds. I do not recommend ground but my Samsclub store does not carry whole bean. My favorite is winter blend whole bean.

I've read so many reviews if Pike Place complaining about it being changed to a "flavored coffee", these are tasting notes people. Not added flavoring. I brew this as pour over and if you think this "new" Pike Place tastes terrible then you are just brewing it incorrectly. I have not tried the "old" Pike Place so I dont fully understand what people are complaining about, but this "new" is NOT flavored coffee and tastes great if you know how to brew.

Pike's Place Roast is a great mainstay coffee choice. We prefer to always keep a couple of pounds on hand. Our preferred method of preparation is via the 'old' Starbucks Utopia by Bodum coffee maker. There is simply no better way to enjoy a cup of coffee!
