Costa in Northampton

Quit busy and less space to sit.. just ok ambience..

Relaxed atmosphere just as I prefer it.

Stopped by for a coffee and a pecan slice and served with a smile by Cidalia who was friendly and helpful. A nice team all round as my coffee was made just right! 🙂

Costa Coffee in Northampton earns a modest 3 out of 5 stars, mainly because while it boasts a welcoming ambiance, friendly staff, and a clean, comfortable setting, the coffee itself doesn't live up to the mark. The drinks, although passable, lack the depth and richness that enthusiasts might expect, which is a significant letdown for a brand that prides itself on its coffee. This key shortfall in beverage quality is what prevents the cafe from securing a higher rating, overshadowing its strengths in service and atmosphere. An improvement in the coffee's quality could potentially boost its standing significantly among Northampton's coffee spots.

Having hearing loss and using hearing aids the place was a little noisy for me to really concentrate on my meeting. Being in a wheelchair I wasn't able to move to a quieter area. It wasn't really that busy time either. The drinks were really nice maybe the best think is to find another premise a little out of town maybe that will be better.

Coffee ok, but the place was filthy! Tables dirty, nobody clearing up. I expect the place to be clean when paying £7 for two coffees!

Overall can't beat Costa Coffee at any branch. Coffee is always hot and good taste and everything else is a bonus. The main woman who serves is extremely pleasant and happy 5* The shop is situated on a area which is good for people watching very entertaining.

got kicked out for sitting. while we deciding what to order. absolutely disgusting. vile staff members. would not come back. if i could give 0 stars i would 😡

Good clean standard Costa, chained yes but you still get your caffeine’s dosage needs.

This is for Costa at Tesco store. Sign saying due to staff shortages only serving take away, but people were sitting down. The person who served us was too busy looking at friends photos on her phone and talking rather than paying attention. Another member of staff asked a lady to leave and was extremely rude about it!

An excellent Costa outlet with well mannered baristas and fast service. The coffee was a bit Luke warm rather than hot though!

Great place to enjoy a cup of coffee, I come to this Costa every morning and Michelle and Aneta are two lovely ladies who are very helpful always bring my food to the table so I don’t have to wait and always handle stress well even if there is a queue. The drinks are really nice and service is quick.

Excellent customer service, excellent food and the hard working ladies are always so lovely especially Aneta which I always have a positive experience with. She makes my drink the way I like it and always remembers my order which makes me feel special haha.

The town centre was in utter chaos today due to a bombscare. The girls in there did an AMAZING job serving us all and it was VERY busy! Just wanted to say a big thank you for how well you managed and for keeping all us retail workers spirits up!

Excellent food. Terrible cappuccino (very commercial coffee). Poor service. Laptop (macAir) couldn't connect to WiFi. Staff said it should be automatic but weren't willing to help when I couldn't connect as they're very busy. No point in going back if I can't sit and get some work done on laptop

-Fast customer service -Clean, fresh smelling environment -Good snack type foods -Too good to Go app works here

Great staff. But it was very expensive.

Usual Costa coffee, nothing great.

Everything is very delicious, the staff is friendly and concerned, but the toilet was very bad, I couldn't use it.

The staff at this Costa are so polite and friendly.

Not the best, but I think I'm spoilt by independent coffee shops in Northampton, frappe wasn't blended, just came with big chunks of Ice, café Nero used to ask if you wanted it blended, when we asked we were greeted with a blank look 😂

Brilliant staff very efficient even though it was really busy. Very friendly, food was lovely. Really important too, the toilet was very clean!

1 is too high for this dump. if you question why your order is wrong or request anything specific they get bloody rude and not welcoming at all. ruined our experience and destroyed our expectations. really wish they were better trained. it’s only this branch that is so rubbish. she said she was the manager and hid her name tag looked like mera lina. really not fit for the job disgrace to costa

2.45pm ordered Cappuccino, noticed a t/a cup being prepared so asked for a proper cup. I was told they were closing soon so only providing t/a cups. When I asked what time they closed, I was told 5pm!! WT*. Tables were uncleared, customers having to clear them themselves. 3.55pm customers waiting to be served, no staff out front. Very poor service, won't be going there again

Absolutely useless in this store I am a Costa member so I get rewards I had a pound offer the other day I told the lady I had the voucher to redeem a pound so instead she took my free drinks off me I always finding this store staff never listens to what you are I also asked for a white millionaire shortbread which was on Cheshire gave me the normal caramel one at double the price what I wanted not realising the mistake until it was too late to go back also I was standing in a queue and a bloke jump to the front of the queue when me and another lady confronted the staff she said he's deliveroo without being disrespectful the customers are paying your the delivery driver should have waited until the lady in front of me was served it's very poor customer services in this store I have no other problems with any of the Costa I go in

Excellent service today and every visit. Always a happy and attentive service. Love this coffee shop and the staff make it what it is.

Miserable staff. I think they must charge more if you want them to smile or be polite. Dirty tables and chairs.

It wasn't very clean. Got served a paper cup although said I was sitting inside. Like Costa but will not be visiting again

Brilliant staff. Always friendly and attentive. Love going in there!

Seating area available. Expect to wait as also a busy 'take out' location . Not the cleanest place.

Came with my 10 year old to have some mum n daughter time in town. A guy took Order, we paid and ask lady in 2’nd counter if we wait her or take a seat. We were advised to take a seat. We took a seat n after few mins this guy who took order came looking for us and put tary on table rudely and left saying he was calling us so many times. We didn’t hear anything, there wasn’t any bell or call System where customers know if their food is ready to collect. Very rude. Kind of spoiled our day

Friendly staff decent coffee, ok cakes a little over priced for what you get.

I've ordered by the app for collection.... waited for a while in store for girl to even realize there's an order to be made. Luckily I wasn't in a rush. She was very polite and apologetic.

Really long queues the Costa in the Grosvenor Centre is better run.

Busy but got served straight away, staff as ever always very polite.

Staff just simply lovely and always positive, nice way to start my day with a cappuccino made by Adriana!!

This is a CocaCola company that is doing business-as-usual in Russia.

Great place. Lovely manger and most of the lady's there are great to chat to. Have great fun and chat with most them. Always welcome me good service from them

Good place and good people Always friendly staff, good service , nice coffee ☕️

Very good place to drink coffe and good service

Sub standard,hot chocolate Luke warm,ordered the Black Forest hot chocolate looked nothing like the advertisement for it!! Served in a cardboard cup as no glasses due to dishwasher broken,toilets out of order,tea cake over cooked burnt on the bottom.not a good Costa

Clean but very busy so generally queuing

Ordered Costa from Deliveroo. The panini and flap jack were not delivered. Tried to call them, twice, no answer. Yet, I still have to pay Deliveroo £3.99 for delivery and wait up to 10 days for a refund!!! It's really simple, I ordered 3 things, please deliver 3 things. I'm not ordering from this Costa again - I doubt management will even read this. I am so pi**ed off. Edit - Stupidly ordered on the 10th November. Again they didn't send the panini. They just sent the 2 coffee's. So, I've paid £2.99 plus Deliveroo's service fee for 2 coffee's. They don't pick up their phone either. It's just lazy service. They could have called me and asked me if I wanted a different panini. Now, I have to wait 10 days for a refund. I'm never ordering again ever!!! They don't care about their customers. I was charged in total £15.12 for 2 coffees and have to wait 10 days for some sort of refund. Rubbish.

Nice coffee and selection of pastries and cakes. Toilets very dirty.

was quikly served despite the long queues

Clean and tidy. You can sit indoors, upstairs and outside.

Coffee was not hot enough. Could have been better if it was hot. Did not heat milk well. Cappuccino

Great place ,lovely food at reasonable price

Always friendly staff, unfortunately the local clients can let it down

Better late opening, prompt service

Μου αρέσει ο εξωτερικός χώρος.. Φτιάχνουν καλό καφέ..

Orders from Ubereats they did not sent full order but charged me for full order. No one from Costa or Ubereats picking up my complaint nor giving me refund. Be careful if you order through Ubereats

I order inside and I can drink my cofee outside on a table that are cleaning after every client and I fel safe. I enjoy the Best coffee.

Charged £1.50 for two slices of toast and had to pay 50p for the butter to put on it!!! Asked twice for a spoon to stir my coffee, was not asked if I wanted sugar (would probably be charged for that to) will certainly tell friends to avoid the place

I couldn't see if something was suitable for my dietary requirements so staff looked it up for me

Delicious flavor coffee and sandwiches,

Staff are helpful at the moment only take away service allowed hopefully they will open as usually soon

Fresh and tidy looking store with nice staff.

Fast and frendly people. The customization of products is incredible.

Lovely coffee made by Laurance.

Ordered porridge twice and on both occasions the porridge was Luke warm, staff were unable to service it hot. Shame! They were very pleasant.

Fantastic coffee shop always !!! Especially cordato coffee.

Very busy but got served quick the staff were working really hard

The best location to drink coffee in town This place passes the vibe check👍🏻 Blackforest got chocolate is a must drink

Staff were great as always. A good amount of space. Really need more milk tho because I ordered a large coffee and a more small. Maybe I should have asked

Good, quick service. The shop is following current restrictions well and has both NHS Track and Trace and Costa Track and Trace posters available. The hand sanitiser is the cheap and sticky kind, but toilets are available with soap on the ground and first floor.

The staff in there were fantastic.

I used to drink my coffee a lot at this place. The staff is very friendly and they made the best coffee in town

Costa coffee is always good however, with the current pandemic going on there were way too many people being served without face masks and nothing was being said. It makes it hard to enjoy your lunch.

Staff wanted us out by 5 they could have been more polite

Can’t really give reviews during covid cos everyone’s in a wierd head space, but all good here.

Good Costa. Conveniently located.

I love this place staff really know their customers always very welcoming even in this tough time

Mocha was good. Chai latte was amazing 😊

The hotchocolate wasnt very amazing,but the cakes were ok. Long waiting time

Clean facilities, friendly staff, excellent coffee

The cappuccino coffee l ordered was bitter and did not have a nice taste. Unfortunately, l had a appointment at the hospital so did not have the time to mention any thing. Usually the coffee is good here. Wasted my money !

Very friendly staff and amazing service xxx

Nice cosy place for a nice coffee

Great atmosphere good coffee great place to meet

Very noisy but it was a Saturday I guess. The music playing you could not here

Great location, tends to be busy.

Usual Costa Coffee with plenty of room to sit down over two floors

Mobile ordering fab. Nice staff

Usual decent cup of coffee. Very busy. No where to sit downstairs. Tables mot cleared very promptly. ..

Nice coffee, brilliant and helpful staff, good atmosphere. What not to like.

Visited on Sunday. Place very busy but had room upstairs. Coffee good as usual but still overpriced.

I can get busy but who doesn't like free wifi greatest cappuccino served when busy on a Sunday buy Emma

Friendly staff, lovely and clean, food well cooked and hot.

Not the best coffee shop in Northampton!

Great coffee, better than starbucks.

Excellent coffee café friendly professional staff

Not so friendly staff. The manager is the worst

The worst Costa experienced ever. Their Croissants are like cold bread. I went on Saturday morning. Croissants in Tesco 1-pound packs are much better than this.

Not bad, a bit slow and dirty burty

Cool place, exactly in mid of town centre.

Lovely food and drink at affordable prices

Good but too many people smoking outside.

Decent coffee and outside seating.
