No, it isn't because you are getting the lunch break within your 8 hour block. Running lunches first for openers is a pretty standard practice.

Okay, I understand that.
... but why is it that when I go 5 hours without a meal in the beginning of my shift I meal violate? But if I go 5 hours at the end of my shift I don’t? Just wondering lol

Because the rule is a meal taken before your fifth hour, not a lunch break every five hours, unless you’re working a 10+ hour shift.
It confused me because I’ve gotten in trouble for breaking my fifth on the back half of my shift when I worked for other companies, but that’s how my manager explained it to me.

Not a violation. The requirement is that you get a meal at some point during your shift, CA law doesn't say much about when that meal must take place. Starbucks policy is less strict than CA law so CA law governs.
