Low Risk NYC Grade: A

Across the available record, Starbucks has three inspections on file, the first dated 2023. The most recent visit was on Aug 12, 2025. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.

Performance has remained roughly level inspection to inspection, near two violations each time.

When inspectors have written things up, food, supplies, or equipment not protected from potential source has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

Restaurants in Queens average 75, so Starbucks is doing better than most peers. The file should reassure diners considering a visit.
