Free parking if you park within SB's designated parking slot! You just ask SB's guard to give you their parking voucher.

Starbucks has a branch inside the Paseo de Magallanes, accessible via SLEX Southbound before going to Skyway. A parking fee is imposed on common areas (i.e. within the Paseo de Magallanes compound, there are lots of other establishments such as Pancake House located beside Star Bucks). Nevertheless, those parking in the parking slots intended for Starbucks customers and entering the premises will be given by a guard a pass. This pass requires validation signature by the Starbucks crew upon exit to be entitled to two hours of free parking. At the interior, the sofa seats are comfy, and some wooden seats are on the ground floor. At the cashier's area, the menus are mostly coffee and fruit tea, with doughnuts and cakes inside the shelves. On the second floor, there are partitions for group and solo table area. The facade, when looking from outside, appears to be small, unlike those in Sierra Valley (Cainta branch), but the branch is spacious on the inside. Starbucks Magallanes has longer operating hours even until midnight. Drive-thru is available, toilet is clean.

We went inside, did not use the Drive Thru. Very nice Starbucks with plenty of seating both upstairs and downstairs. Standard drinks and food were all very good. Comfortable seats. Toilet was clean and accessible. Prices standard. Overall, a nice Starbucks would happily use again.

Weekend writing Sunday late noon, March 16* Starbucks is and will always be a third place. The Magallanes branch is one of the closest to our home. It is also highly accessible being in the Paseo De Magallanes, which is along South Superhighway. Good pitstop if you're travelling to the South! Food - everything on the usual Starbucks menu. This is where I first bought (via their drive thru) a strawberry cake that's mostly green! (With pistachio), and where we got two bags of coffee grounds for free! (Yey to recycling, sustainability and happy plants for us. Friendly staff - They really get to know their customers. My daughter was greeted with a HI and happy smile, as if from a bff, on her second trip to the cashier. Atmosphere - good for studying, working, zoning out, chatting... there's also like a separate area seating about 30 pax, giving us ideas of a private Starucks party! Can get noisy a bit but manageable. Tables and seats - two floors, more seats on the second floor. Good view of the highway, too! Parking - lots of parking outside the branch and across! Safety - kuya guard was friendly as well, and alert!

Clean, not crowded and good service. Had breakfast and a quick online meeting, and place was conducive for a stress free coffee/meal & conversations. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

The 2nd floor is a spacious and cozy place. The baristas are very respectful and nice. It's a perfect place for me-time and studying since people are not too loud, and the place is not overcrowded. They have also provided electrical outlets at some tables. It's the best coffee place for me.
