With thousands of stores across the globe, Starbucks has built a legacy of excellence in the coffee industry, emphasizing quality beans, innovative beverages, and exceptional customer service. In St. Augustine, Florida, our Store# 78777 at FL 16 & I-95 stands as a welcoming hub for locals and travelers alike, offering a warm space to enjoy premium coffee, teas, and pastries. As a Barista, you'll be at the heart of this experience, turning every order into a moment that matters.

Role Overview

The Barista role at Starbucks in St. Augustine, Florida, is perfect for energetic individuals who thrive in dynamic environments. No prior experience is required, making it an ideal entry point into the retail and food service sector.

This position offers flexible hours, including early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays, allowing you to balance work with life while building valuable skills in customer service and teamwork.

Why This Role Stands Out

At Starbucks, Baristas aren't just servers—they're storytellers who brighten days with personalized service, like remembering a favorite order or recommending a new seasonal drink.
