Coffee up to a high standard, but sadly parking company designed to generate as much revenue as possible in fines. Only suitable for takeout.

Good coffee but sadly only suitable for take away. Car park is run by a company designed to generate maximum return possible via fines.

I went to the tonbridge costa this morning to get a peach iced tea it was made I went back to my car went to take a sip and then saw these black bits.. when I looked more closely they were dead ants! I went back in and showed the lady she did say sorry and re made the drink but felt that I was being judged for bringing it back to them not happy really

Dropped in on the off chance and was pleasantly surprised. Met with a smile and a "good morning" at the order point. The coffee came quickly, was extra hot as ordered and with a thank you and smile from the barista. Would not hesitate to come here again!

Persistant staffing issues so often closed or on short hours. When it is open it might as well be closed as service is rarely with more than two people who interact more with each other than customers.

Pretty good, standard Costa. Staff very friendly and helpful. Food was served very quickly and drinks were of good quality. My consistent issue with Costa is the cost, over £20 for two drinks, two smoothies and two pieces of cake and a small pizza is expensive but I suppose it's what you expect from Costa.

Is this place ever open? Today it was staff shortages, previously they’ve had no milk and no ice. Card machine rarely works. Please close so we can get a decent restaurant in there.

Costa, or whoever runs this location needs to grab it by the scruff of the neck. Understaffed, so often that most of the time it's takeaway only. When you can sit in, the tables are dirty and the seats have yesterdays food on them.

Not always open when they are meant to be. Also allow you to order collection via the app then stay shut all day. When you then go the next day they tell you to email Costa, no apologies.

Walked for quite a while to get to this Costa shop. I was looking forward to coffee and some breakfast, and the usual relaxed and cosy atmosphere of a Costa coffee shop. I was quite disappointed to find a note on the door, saying “due to the shortage of staff, we offer only takeaway items.” There was another note informing clients that the wi-fi did not work. I looked inside, chairs piled on top of each other, no staff to be seen. The place looked like a ghost town. I wasn’t sure if it was even open (8:45 am). I didn’t even bother trying the door. Quite disappointed, I headed straight to Waitrose’s cafe, where I was totally blown away by the quality of food and coffee over there. I don’t think I will be heading to this particular Costa in the future. There is a much better alternative nearby.

Great location, nice interior, worlds worst Costa? Barely ever open for several months now due to broken down coffee machines, water leaks, short staffed, alien invasion etc. Closed early, never open, only open for takeaway the lottery goes on (and on). If you're lucky enough to actually buy coffee, the last few occasions the service has been plain rude.

Firstly, I had to repeat my order several times. Then I was given a medium hazelnut latte when I ordered a large. I then got told “that is a large” when it was not! I was then offered cream for my mocha, I said yes. I got my latte back and then a member of staff was extremely rude and stated that next time I should pay for cream! Yet I was asked after I paid. I then noted that they had poured the MEDIUM LATTE INTO THE LARGE CUP!!!! DISGRACEFUL!!!!! We waited OVER 10 minutes for our coffees to be made and there were four staff! Two of which was just wandering around doing nothing!!!!! The way I was treated, the service was SHOCKING!!!! Teenagers behave on a better way. I doubt I will ever return to this store!!!!!

I have visited the Friars many times over the years, very rarely do I use the tea room as years ago I had an awful experience with the staff being rude to us there. After what must be 7 years I thought we would try again. Sadly the staff were still rude and disinterested. The food is basic and good, the environment is of course wonderful so it’s such a shame that the staff can’t make that little bit of effort to make someone’s day. This is a place with many visitors after all. Of a team of 4 that I could see, 3 were looking in their phones and the lady that served us could just about be bothered to talk to us. I’ll give it a go in another 7 years maybe 👎🏼

It needs a better system where the restaurant is. Long queues need more staff members clearing tables to minimise length of queuing. Many people queuing are elderly and cannot spend long time standing around. Staff are friendly and helpful. There was plenty of outside seating, but cold weather people didn't want to sit outside. Perhaps if they were to cover the outside during the winter months, then it would reduce the time people are waiting to be seated.

Myself and a group of friends decided to do a circular walk starting in this pretty village and ending with a pub lunch. Unusually we had not read the pub reviews in advance. What a wonderful surprise! Although we had not booked were were immediately made very welcome and accommodated in the atmospheric dining part of the pub. The very extensive menu including all the favourites alongside many specials made it difficult to choose but we were all very happy with the quality and portions of our varying options . Of particular note were the home made nachos . The pudding choice was also great ,. Huge portions , good prices and home made. The meringue and the banana waffle were the favourites. The fantastic food was surpassed by the wonderful service. Nothing was too much trouble. we were addressed by name and really put at our ease. Furthermore we mentioned we were celebrating a friends birthday and a beautiful home made mini Victoria spinge complete with candle was presented Thank you all sooo much for a really exceptional experience all round Jacqui carol ( birthday girl), David, Rob judy , Ann and Julia

Lovely Sunday lunch. Meats on trio roast were great, parsnip and veggies slightly undercooked, but that's just personal preference! Service was amazing and nothing too much trouble. Will definitely be back. Thank you.
