Flat whites start around €3.50 at this T4 Starbucks
This Starbucks sits airside in Terminal T4 at Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas, handy if you’re flying Iberia or other oneworld carriers from the main terminal. Expect the standard international menu: espresso drinks, drip coffee, Frappuccinos, and a short list of pastries and premade sandwiches. Prices run a bit higher than downtown Madrid, with most tall lattes in the €3–€4 range and sandwiches closer to €6–€7.
Hours typically track early departures, opening around 5:30–6:00 a.m. and running until late evening, but they can tighten slightly on weekends or off-peak days. It sits in the main departures area of T4 rather than T4S, so if your flight leaves from the satellite terminal you’ll need to factor in the 8–10 minute tram ride after grabbing your drink.
Order your usual espresso-based drink if you want something predictable before a 7:00 a.m. departure; the baristas here work at airport pace and turn drinks fast. The food case carries the standard muffins, croissants, and wraps you see across Europe, fine for a quick bite but not a replacement for a proper sit-down Spanish breakfast in the T4 food court one level up.
Mobile ordering through the Spain Starbucks app sometimes works spottily on airport Wi‑Fi, so plan on queuing at the counter if you’re tight for time. Lines spike around the 6:30–8:30 a.m. bank and again around 5:00–7:00 p.m., when waits can stretch to 10–15 minutes. Staff generally keep the line moving with a dedicated register for simple drink orders.
Tip: if your gate is in the mid‑90s at the far end of T4, grab your coffee here at least 20 minutes before boarding time; the walk to those gates can easily run 10–12 minutes at a normal pace.
