Rude rude rude customer service, male staff have an attitude and make sarcastic comments. If you want polite service go elsewhere. One member of staff waited for me to finish my drink so he could collect my glass… very weird service

This bullring Costa is always packed. I think it would be pretty difficult for anyone to access seating if in a wheelchair or a child in a pushchair. It's quite tight to move around the seating and it's always packed.

I was scammed by this company. After accepting my order from Uber Eats, they called me and asked me to cancel from Uber because it was a busy day. They asked me to do it when they should have done it themselves and said it would be fine. But Uber charged me and they said I was responsible. If there is no refund, I will make a complaint

Outrageously rude staff! Unfortunately I didn't get of the staff member but she had such a bad attitude. She argued with my Mother in Law about a discount she had on her app, even after proving that my Mother in Law was correct, the staff member did not apologise and continued to be extremely rude. When I ordered my drink, I had my own discount code on my app. She didn't scan the QR correctly and I paid full price. When I looked at the receipt, I realised. Asked for her to correct but she said 'You have paid for it now'. I had to suggest her refunding it and recharging it. Awful customer service!

Not first time members of staff here are rude and disrespectful. They rush and roll their eyes at you. we also have noticed them giving dirty looks at customers… The one who was making the drinks made an espresso for a man who was last on the queue and skipped the rest of the line. When asked why she did that as I was waiting long and it was my turn to make the drinks. All three of them were rude to me and with poor customer service. When I complained the one at the till told the other lady not to make my drinks even though I paid for them as I don't deserve it. Its such a shame this is a lovely spot, Hope Costa customer service changes this situation and make a choice of lovely people to work here. Even one star was two much

I have been here many times over the years, and I always find the same two members of staff here are rude and disrespectful. They rush you through and roll their eyes at you. Today, I asked for extra milk because I had a tea and the coffee machine wasn’t working, so they had no coffee, and the lady sighed and placed the costa cup down with disregard and in a huff. Me and my friend have noticed them giving dirty looks to customers…

Everyone's favourite Costa Coffee found on the top floor within Next! Always a hustle and bustle vibe with fabulous views out over the Rotunda cross roads of the Bullring, Grand Central and down to the famous Rag market. Great for people watching! I've been a few times, service varies as they're usually run off the feet. You don't wait too long though and food quality is spot on. I had a Costa voucher to use which is always a bonus.

If I could give no stars I would. This is 2nd time I've been her both times disappointing. Drink cold. Also, order a strawberry lemonade. I watched her making it, and she filled the cup with tap water. If I wanted a glass of tap water with some strawberry syrup and a tiny amount of lemonade, I wouldn't have bothered paying. If the staff were approachable, then I would feel going up and speaking to them. But they are rude.

I’m a barista my self and I was not impressed by the latte I received. The lady placed the jug under the wand and walked away from it while it heated. A latte milk should be silky and smooth, and to achieve this you don’t put the wand straight in and walk off it’s done at a certain angle untill the temp hits 45 then you drop the wand untill temp hits 55-65! More training should be given to theses staff, I don’t expect a coffee I can make at home in the microwave with hot milk. Won’t be returning

By locating Costa Coffee within Next, Costa is injected with a vibrancy that you won’t find in your standard store. It’s busy to boot. I wasn’t sure if this was because the staff were new, or just because they were laid back. Nothing wrong with the latter. Given my temperament I went elsewhere for a cup of Costa Coffee. Why did I choose Costa. Convenience. My usuals were closed and I had a free coffee coupon to use. Anyway, because of the queue size I foxtrot-ed Oscar to another Costa venue.

Me and my friend went there this afternoon to have a coffee and chat. We were at the till ordering, the girl, witch name is Afsar asked if we were taking away or sitting in, we wanted to sit in, but as soon as she heard she told us she had no tables. We had a look over and there was a table that ended to be cleaned but was actually available, we asked for it and we got it eventually. But that's not all. She was rude, no costumer service at all. It's hard to hear with the glass screen and all the noises and she was getting mad I could not understand her and started responding rude and with higher angry voice. The shop closes at 19, at 18 30 the same girl shouts at us saying they are all ready closed and they need to clean. I work in a costumer service environment and I would never be so ride with costumers even with bad once. I don't think I will ever go back to that Costa again.

We were served tea in a pot for which a normal lid couldn't be found. How is this possible in a so-called cafe? The milk jug was chipped. This looks so unprofessional and may also decrease hygiene of the jug. I conplained online and asked for a reply. I didn't get one. I can't believe that so many people put up with pretty average things heated up and retailed at prices with high profit margins and shoddy quality tea.

Terrible service staff were uninterested and firstly got our drink order wrong. Had to wait 30 mins before the first meal came out and then a further 20 mins before the 2nd meal which was sent back as the fried egg was raw. The manager didn't even apologise and it seemed too much trouble to take back. Also no cutlery given and was told rudely that we had to get our own from the side of the coffee machine. Totally unacceptable service and will not be going back again.

So many choices! I wanted to try everything on the bakery menu, and the coffee was great. The brunch menu, however, was just alright—pretty simple and common, nothing extraordinary. My first impression was mixed. What really stood out was the need for better customer and table management. I’ve never seen such inefficient table allocation. Despite several empty two-person tables, they directed us to a long table meant for eight people, which we had to share with others. Most concerning, though, was the feeling that the staff were not very welcoming toward Asian customers. It’s an impression that left me uncomfortable and disappointed. Finally, they also charged service fee. I realised after I paid it. HAHA.

Lovely little pub. Excellent atmosphere for a Saturday night. We had booked a table earlier in the day and lucky we did as the small dining area was full. Lovely welcome. Ordered food and drink at the bar. Notified of a little delay for the pie for my partner which was no problem. I had the burger which was lovely, hot, tasty and a very good portion size! Unfortunately, my partner’s pie was cold in the centre, he also tells me his mash was not hot either but he’d eaten that. He was unable to eat the cold pie so alerted a member of staff at the bar. No one up until this food had checked if the food was okay. They could not have dealt with the situation better to be honest. Told us they would refund straight away, apology from both front of house members of staff, they warmed it up, they offered a drink on the house which we declined as were driving. It happens sometimes, but the professionalism in dealing with a problem was what stood out, thank you for not making it awkward, for being friendly and accommodating. Not sure we’ll be back for good but I’ve been here a few times for drinks before or after going to the Blue Orange Theatre across the road so I’ll continue this.
