This is totally our friend -- so she just orders at whichever store she finds first in the app. And then can never remember which one that was!
And for anyone following along, the closest Starbucks to the DLH is Starbucks Downtown Disney West II.
Where are you coming from? Hope you have a fantastic trip! I really love the SB app, and mobile ordering is especially nice at Disneyland where the stores can get really crowded. The app allows you to personalize your drink and it saves your choices which is great for me because I usually get the same couple of things, so the next time I order it I just have to make one click. It also lets you use star rewards for part or all of your order. I'm sure you know this, but you can only use the app in DTD. The park stores don't do mobile ordering (but you can use an AP discount there, which brings the price down closer to what I pay at home
).
Just a heads up: when this location came back to life, it was renamed in the app (for whatever reason) as Starbucks Downtown Disney West II. CMs laugh at the new name because they have no idea why the old name couldn't be used.
We have a credit card on file with the Starbucks app and our Starbucks card loaded in our Apple Wallet. This way we always have a back up in case something doesn't work. The Starbucks card will work inside the parks and in DTD, but mobile ordering through the Starbucks app only works in the DTD locations.
@BadPinkTink: when you arrive in the U.S., buy a Starbucks card and load it with however much money you need for your trip. Then put that card onto your app. Keep that card for your U.S. trips since you'll be able to reload it every time you visit. (Buy a fun one that says "California"!)
A note to anyone outside of the US - you probably can't mobile order. I discovered this a few weeks ago when the app wouldn't allow me to do it. A quick Google search mentioned that you cannot mobile order in the US with an app/card registered outside of the US. (I'm Canadian). If it doesn't work, don't fret - I never waited more than 3 minutes to get my drink.
I could use my app to pay for the drinks, however, and I collected stars.
I'll try the day I land with my own card and if I have problems I'll buy a USA card. I kinda wanted to use my own though, as its at Gold Card Level and I get discounts and free things with it Where are you coming from? Hope you have a fantastic trip!

We dont have the App or mobile ordering so this is something new to tryOh, I totally get the gold card love! One option, though not exactly budget friendly, is to spend a LOT at Starbucks and you'll achieve gold card status with your U.S. card, too!thanks for the heads up
thanks for the heads up
The gold level still exists in the US -- much to my chagrin and Starbucks' advantage!
