50% off cheese & ham toasties makes it a lot less intrusive on the wallet. I love their cappuccinos, I always prefer them with coconut milk.

Absolutely loving the toblerone Christmas hot chocolate and cranberry and Brie toastie. I’m gutted I checked my app and realised my birthday cake slice and free drink ran out on my app during November, but nice chilled place to sit and go through my private emails.

Much better now this place does M&S foods. I enjoyed their smoked ham and cheese toastie and got my free Costa Coffee off the app.

Expensive bacon roll with nowhere near enough bacon in it. The lady could do with some charm schooling. Toffee latte was nice.

Very expensive for a soggy toastie and a warm plastic bottle of Diet Coke. It was tasty enough, but they could atleast make it so it’s actually toasted.

I have visited this store on multiple occasions and I must say, the quality of service here has dipped significantly over the last 2 years. 1. Staff are not welcoming. 2. Opening times change with no updates to website/web listings. 3. You have to ask for everything (sugar, stirrer etc) no intuition at all.

The opening hours have changed. They no longer match the website. As we wait we see several people arrive and then leave. Please update your hours on the website

Served by Georgia. Brilliant staff, as friendly customer service as one could ask for! Be kind, tip your barista's!

No filter coffee although there is a machine. Had to have an Americano - coffee was bitter so I asked if I could have some milk & could it be warmed. I got a tiny pot of froth. You would think that might have checked if there was actually any milk in the pot, but no, too busy talking about how many minutes it was until they could go home (20) Had to leave the coffee.

On Saturday 4th May I went to meet someone at Costa for a coffee. I had never been to this costa before but I saw a queue by the tills so I joined the back of it. I was standing there for a good 5-10 minutes, all the staff completely ignored my existence but I was fine with that because I thought was just waiting. However then another man who had literally just walked straight into the shop walked up to the tills and got served within 30 seconds of him walking over there. Well I then realised I must be in the queue for the people waiting for their coffees they had already ordered so I then moved and waited behind the gentleman who had just walked in (it would have been nice for one of the staff to point this out to me initially). So once he had been served, the lady then served me. At this point I didn’t mind too much as it was my fault for waiting in the wrong queue, but then I smiled at her and said ‘I think I must have been in the wrong queue’ and laughed. Well she quite literally gave me the most disgusted look I’ve ever seen in my life, as if I was a piece of chewing gum on the bottom of her shoe, did not reply or apologise for my wait at all and said in a blunt lifeless voice, ‘what coffee do you want?’. Well I was absolutely taken aback after I’d just been ignored for a good 10 minutes by this point and just got stared at like a piece of trash. I have worked in hospitality most of my life and was appalled by the lack of common courtesy. Even just a smile or a hello wouldn’t have gone a miss. The salted caramel latte was not good either; tasteless coffee, with big lumps of granulated sugar in and some caramel syrup at the bottom which was too thick to even mix into the drink and just sat at the bottom of the cup. Would not ever come back here.

Coffee was Costa coffee, what else can you say, it was fine. But what was a refreshing change as this was the first time I had been to this branch, the staff were friendly, knowledgeable and dedicated to their job. Well done lads.

Wasn’t busy . Called in for takeWay . Standard costa. What annoys me is paying over £3 for a cooler drink which is basically a little fruit juice and lots of ice for them to then not take the time to do it properly . Slushy with huge lumps of ice and tiny straw

I visited here when I had some time to kill waiting on my car getting MOT'd. It's on a small retail park so I browsed some shops then had a coffee and a glass of water. The staff appeared very efficient and I didn't have...

Call in today for a takeaway black Americano, I had the correct change and my order was taken. The chap behind me placed his order for a flat white, paid and put 20pence tip in the tip pot. The server (a bloke) then proceeded to...

I just really enjoy all Costa's, my particular favourite being London Street, Norwich. This big new one in the Sweet Briar Retail Park serves the usual high standard coffee and food. Unlike some Costas, all the staff behind the counter keep busy ensuring a quick...

I prefer costa over Starbucks. However it’s still just as expensive. But nice for a treat. Nice and friendly staff, you don’t have to wait too long.

tea so milky it looks like a cup of milk, soggy toasties which were actually burnt but watery inside with 0 taste. If you can't keep up with the drive thru simply don't have one? People are still paying the same price as they would...

Nice costa! Lots of seating although the bench and tables are a too little close. Service good too. Seating outside

I have to say (as those who know me will vouch for) this is probably my favourite Costa in Norwich, the staff are so friendly, the seating is well spaced out, the car park is big, and of course the coffee is delicious. i had...

This was my first visit to this Costa branch. Not very impressed, there were no staff serving and we had to wait for a few minutes before someone appeared. The crumpets I ordered arrived with no butter or knife, so by the time I got...

Unpleasant environment. Once sat I noticed how dirty and littered the floor was along with food crumbs spread across the bench seating areas. Plenty of staff to clean the floor and tables yet this has not been done. Coffee was very tasteless and overly milky, would even say a tad sour, an overpriced experience. Sat near the back kitchen and a slightly eggy smell is wafting into the seating area which just adds to the grubby feel in this place.

There were two tables occupied at around 4pm, 3 lots of people waiting for drinks and 4 members of staff working behind the counter, and 1 refilling out the front. We felt like an absolute inconvenience, but hung about waiting 5 minutes to place our order. We received no acknowledgment in this time, until my partner and I shared a ‘should we just go?’ look, which prompted a staff member to say ‘ill be with you shortly’. It seemed chaotic behind the counter, no order or logic to who did what, and overheard another guy waiting for drinks say that he’d been waiting half an hour for two takeaway drinks! We waited at the counter for 10-15 mins for two toasties and two coffees. Our toasties came out quick, but drinks took forever, despite having two robust coffee machines capable of allowing two members to be simultaneously making drinks. By the time our drinks arrived our toasties were pretty cool, and one of our drinks was accidentally put in a takeaway cup. Coffee was awful. We choose costa because it’s consistent (usually) and you know what to expect. The milk was burnt and the baristas skill didn’t compare to our local costa (Broadland business park). Won’t be returning, if they can’t get it right when it’s quiet and there’s plenty of staff - when can they?!
