Management here are dreadful and let down hard working staff. The managements indifference means alarms are constantly screaming and not turned off, the staircase is squeaking painfully loudly, and for years the management also haven’t bothered to fix the device for properly giving customers their due for loyalty points. The management here would get five stars only in their commitment for chasing customers away by making it as uncomfortable as possible due to sheer laziness and indifference. Which is unfair on the staff. The older male member of staff in particular is assiduous and hardworking in what must be needlessly challenging circumstances for him.

The service we experienced when ordering was good, however as we had taken a walk down to the river front with the dog we had to sit outside which of course didnt mind as the weather nice. The problem we encountered was there was 4 of us so not an excessive amount but there wasnt enough chairs for the tables provided. There were 4 tables and approximately 8/10 chairs. As the weather was nice there were a few people wanting to sit outside. Very disappointed we couldnt sit and enjoy our drinks and cakes comfortably with conversation, we felt rushed and quick to leave. Drinks even though it was known we were foing outside were provide in china cups etc. Wont rush to visit again in the future.

Costa on Brayford Wharf is located in the lobby of the Odeon cinema. There are indoor and outdoor tables, with the outdoor tables having great waterside views. The food and drink is the standard Costa faire.

We came to Lincoln for an open day so had quite a long drive up. We got out the car to go to the university and stopped off at Costa on the way. Because of the wait we are now going to be late. Alicia, the woman serving us was lovely and it wasn’t her fault as she was going as fast as she could. The shop definitely needed more people working as two wasn’t enough and we were waiting for 15 minutes at the front of the queue just to be served. We probably wouldn’t have minded if we wasn’t in a rush but if you are don’t come here.

Great if quiet but might want to give it a miss if busy. They do not accept Costa gift cards. Other than that, fine, standard Costa coffee, would rank alongside those found in motorway service stations although the view is better.

It states on the web that it opens at 8.30am yet when I arrived to watch a film that started at 9.30am I got told it won’t open til 10am what is the point in having a film start when you can’t even grab a coffee to take in with you

It took 20 minutes to get our drinks, when they only had 4 people to serve 2 out of 4 of them was myself and husband. They then got my drink wrong and had to look through the handbook to see what I had ordered (which was on the menu) and they got that completely wrong but at this point we were about to miss our movie so I just took it and left

Located on the brayford wharf with about 4 outside tables with waterside views, This Costa store is actually just inside the Odeon Cinema Complex,with a patio style/ bi-folding doors which actually opens up the inside 15 tables to the outside space on a hot day as it was when I visited. The Staff service was slow which I put down to a 5 or 6 drinks order infront of me which was a mix of iced coffee,fruit coolers & Frappes due to the extremely warm weather ,these can be time consuming to make but still the order was questioned by the customer as it was a drink short ! ...possibly a lack of communication between the 2 fellas on duty.I would advise to leave plenty of time if your planning to have a coffee before watching a film.I would like to thank the lady on ticket duty for the Odeon ,who allowed my wife through to use the toilet facilities wile I waited for a drink in the costa queue .

Would vote 0 stars if possible, went in for a coffee with family and there was no queue. Stood in front of the cash desk for 5 minutes only to be ignored by two members of staff. They were moving up and down the counter and just completely ignored us, until we left without ordering. Absolutely disgusted by the lack of service

It's encouraging to see a greater selection of coffees, savoury and sweet items on the menu. We had a medium Americano which was very generous in size! Oat, soya, almond and coconut alternative milks are available if you don't want to support the cruelty and suffering in the dairy industry. The cafe has some comfortable seats and there is an outside area for customers to enjoy the warmer weather.

Visited lincoln Christmas market today was a lovely day so we thought we would finish with a nice hot chocolate and coffee. We waited to be served there was no que and there was a young guy and girl behind the counter we stood there for about ten minutes but we must Of turned ino the invisible women because a girl came straight upto the counter and got served by the young guy???? Think the service in there needs to change they need customer service skills.

The young man in charge of the desk spoke condescendingly towards my family. Yelling at my mother with a mocking attitude when she just tried to ask for sugar. I saw him act in that same manner towards a few other people. Usually ladies with difficulty speaking in english. A shame since the food was good. I won't be coming back until that's fixed, and it seems that a few other families think the same.

A good time visiting this costa coffee and most of the staff were relatively nice as well as the food (although a bit pricey). However there was one male member of the staff serving on the till who was very rude. He spoke to us in a very condescending manner and if you did not hear him or misunderstood him he would just stare at you it you answered his question. Everything you asked for had to be done in his order or not at all. He had no people skills and did not seem like the right person for the serving job. There was also a mix up of our order but the woman who made the drinks was very nice and was happy to fix it.

I fact go to Mac Donald’s and do exactly the same for a quid. And coffee tastes better!!! People sit in the places because they think it’s trendy. Waste of money. And always a bit dirty. Meh

Yes I know that having a fresh coffee is always a timely business but it seemed slower than usual here. I ordered a toasted teacake when I finally got to the till but it turned up sometime before my coffee was ready as the person in front had to wait for several cups to arrive and only one person was making the drinks. By the time it was my turn the teacake had gone cold! I asked for another and the staff were polite and took it back but again I waited so long for it to arrive at the table, by that time my coffee was cool. I didn't enjoy this Costa experience as much as I do in my usual Costa in Newark. The floor needed sweeping and lots of tables needed clearing, I suppose the staff were doing their best with so few staff!

Slow service. My main gripe, however was the utterly FILTHY state of the coffee prep area; Dirty dishcloths draped over equipment, puddles of old coffee, everything needed a good old wipe down with a clean cloth. I would not have had food here, it didn't look clean enough. Not indicative of other Costas in the area which are my coffee shop of choice, but not this one.

Costa coffee is situated inside the Odeon Complex, so when there's a good film on it can get very busy and because your coffee or each order is made individually it can seem slow but that's the nature of having fresh coffee made for you. If your in a hurry and there is a queue don't wait because you will only moan about the service and it's not fair on the lovely staff. The staff in here are the most friendly I have come across and they will go out of their way to keep you happy. I have a latte with my shots on the side extra hot and they are always happy to oblige, if fact most of the time they ask if I would like my usual which makes you feel special. Well done Costa on the brayford Lincoln.

This branch of Costa is part of the Odeon Complex on the river. It is open, light and friendly, and a good place for coffee seekers. There is outside seating with views over the water. Quite a good range of cakes, and quick service. No table service - you have to wait for your order, but that's how Costa works. I notice they ask whether you want your coffee small, medium or large, where 'small' actually stands for normal, or plenty large enough for most people! I could easily become a regular here.

This branch of Costa Coffee is just inside the foyer of the Odeon Cinema and therefore is a good place to stop and have a snack before seeing a film. There is nothing special other than that.
