My go-to is, “Howdy partner! What can I get started for you?”
And sometimes I spice it up with, “Howdy partner! Welcome to the rootinist, tootinist Starbucks this side of the Mississip! What can I get started for you?”
It feels natural lol

Omg some of these five me Disneyland vibes so strong I might cry. I wish some of my partners were fellow disney parks lovers like me - we'd use them!!

Good Morning! This Starbucks does not accept Tiktok drinks but other than that, what can I get started for you today?

Most of the time it's "good morning! What can we get started for you today?" Even though it's like 4 in the afternoon.

We have to say our name and ask for the customers name now
I just say “hi welcome to Starbucks, my name is so and so what’s yours?”

I would try to upsell upon my intros, my partners sometimes look at me while holding the milk pitcher. As I may or may not cause more work. 🥴

I love one of my partners says “howdy hey, what can I get started for you today” and I love it! someone else is “ it’s a lovely day at Starbucks, what can I get for you?” And I try my damndest to not fuck up the basics of hello, welcome to Starbucks. my name is greenlykethecolor. What can I get for you today”
moon_light5231 points2y ago
Mine is normally “hey welcome to Starbucks! What can I get started for you this morning?” And the fun part is that sometimes I work pm and say this :)

“Hi, thank you for stopping at Starbucks. What can we get for you today?” Short and sweet :)
Reddit-user-2561 points2y ago
I had the most monotone Starbucks barista say “what can I get for you” and it threw me off cause I’m used to happy peppy voices saying cute intros
