There are a lot of Starbucks in the area and this one suffers from most people not knowing where it is. To begin: this Starbucks is located right in the Jewel-Osco store on 94th Avenue and 159th Street. It is NOT located at 158th and La Grange - that is a different Starbucks. This one is nice.
You can get a sweet or just coffee to cruise the aisles at this Jewel-Osco, so it is a nice addition. Disregard the other reviews since most of them are for a different StarBucks. This one is nice. -

First and foremost: at the time of this review (9.15.14) the address is incorrectly listed. The exact address of this *$ is 15858 LaGrange (the old Steak & Lemonade/Long John Silvers spot). Just FYI.
Confession: I love me a new Starbucks. The employees are always insanely friendly and their coffee game is ON POINT. This location is no exception. I've been here twice now (once inside, one drive through trek) and service was great at both the counter and drive thru. (Coffee was great, too!)
The inside is nice; I really like what they've done to the building. The drive thru, however, is a potential tire bumper, if you know what I mean. I always appreciate a drive thru option (um, hi. five kids and all that) but just remember to hug the curve and you should be fine. It's not the worst drive-thru out there...it's just a little tight.
Definitely worth a stop if you're in the OP area and jonesin' for a coffee fix. :) -

It's Starbucks. The staff was quick and made my drink as ordered. I got a pineapple black tea, sweetened. They didn't have free wifi, as far as I could tell. This location was very clean. It's attached to a Jewel, but has it's own door to outside.

Pretty annoying when they don't ask you a size and just give you a grande if you don't specify.

GoldBucks!
This is the newest Starbucks in Orland Park, IL, da best SW burb o'Chicago. It's located on 159th St in the front of the Lakeview Shopping Plaza in a stand alone store. If you think the building looks suspiciously like a Long John Silver's Restaurant you would be correct. In a former life it was originally an LJS/A&W, then a Baby's Cheesesteak & Lemonade, now much to my delight Starbucks came in, converted it & set up coffee shop! I never ate at either of those previous restaurants when they were doing biz here but I swear I occasionally get a whiff of fried fish/fries-grease smell when I walk in. There are just some things a shiny, new paint job & new signage can't cover?! Could be in my head, but I think it's in my nose lol!
That being said, this is my fave Starbucks location in all of Orland & the neighboring suburb of Tinley Park for a few reasons. First, all the baristas here have always been friendly & efficient, a rare combo across the boards at all Starbucks locations. I only order black coffee & the occasional ice water but to some that's like asking for the moon. Also, this is the first SB location where a barista has asked me if I wanted a bakery item I purchased warmed! Um, yes warmer is betta! Now, I always get my cookies, muffins, pastries, etc. warmed! To date, this is still the only SB location that asks if I want something warmed upon purchase, so thank you!! The other SB locations are too lazy & never ask, I have to request it & they always looked super annoyed & put out when they have to warm my goods! There's usually a line at this location but the wait is never that long as the baristas are good at getting the orders through in a timely, efficient manner, unlike some SB where the lines are completely backed up & it's a total cluster f! A+ on service & speed!
Next, this Starbucks always keeps their bakery case fully stocked with an awesome variety of pastries, cookies, sliced loaves, muffins, bagels & there's a nice selection of hot & cold sammies, nuts, bars, yogurt, oatmeal, & other assorted packaged snacks. There's a gemload of appetizing food options at this Starbucks, so you'll never starve here either! I hate it when you go to a SB and they are outta everything or its slim pickins only.
Finally, what makes a great coffee shop? Lotsa seating & outlets for your devices!! As I said previously, this SB was converted from a restaurant, so it is much bigger than most SB. There are tables & countertop seating lining the perimeter & there are comfy, over-sized chairs in the middle. There's always a place to sit! Plus, there are outlets everywhere! So you never have to worry about dying or not having a seat! The free wifi isn't the fastest, but oh well it's free. FYI: No time to go in & loaf all day?! Don't fret, get it to-go, this SB location has a drive-thru!
I don't think all Starbucks are created equal as they are usually lacking in either the service, space, and/or selection department but this Starbucks meets all my Gem expectations! So when I wanna sit & chillax with a cup o'coffee & a yummy, warmed pastry that will perk me up & never let me down I'm gonna go to the biggest & best Starbucks in the Southwest aka Orland
Park on 159th. I think Starbucks has found the recipe of success for this building & 3rd time's obviously a charm!
