Costa Coffee in Stevenage

Always, always. Adore Costas!!!

Was not busy when i was there. Staff were very friendly.

The worst costa i have ever been too, workers standing around talking instead of serving the long queue. I asked for a flat white to takeaway, I ended up with coffee water flat white. No taste of coffee, Absolutely disgusting and a waste of my money. If I could give it a half a star or zero star I would. Sort your shop out.

I just wanted to say what an absolute pleasure it is to be sat in Costa this morning (forgot my office keys so had to kill half an hour) The staff here are so friendly, they seem to know everyone by name and make the time to chat and pass pleasantries with everyone who walks through the door. I am super impressed. Please visit if you are passing you will not be disappointed.

Friendly staff and a clean café

My late was really bland, all I can test was water with few drops of milk, just wasted my money 😞

Lovely staff,perfect coffee, nice friendly atmosphere

Need more seats, smells of hot milk. Service slow.

Decent enough coffee, but beware the pushy old ladies that are "entitled" to your table when you have barely stood up to put your coat on.

white americano it was awful full water. coffee. two drops of cold milk They always need to know the level of water put into the coffee. I see this as Costa Coffe's general problem.

Been a few times now and always had a fairly good experience here. It's always busy here and sometimes it can be a long wait for food and drinks but the staff are very helpful and pleasant. The atmosphere here is always busy The service is always good also. All in all a fairly decent coffee shop to visit.

Sorry to say the sandwiches were rotten. Very poor value

This is a great Costa in the lovely Stevenage Old Town. The drinks are always made perfectly, the staff are so friendly and always make you feel welcomed. The cafe is clean and tidy. They also have some outdoor tables which are nice to use in warmer weather.

Tables were dirty service was slow

Friendly staff. All very helpful and chatty. After the refurb I miss the tall seats by the window and it's a lot more noisy because of all the hard surfaces. Still a good place to meet people with nice benches outside.

Lovley place to have a break for a coffee, experienced staff that treat you Kindly. Toilets are not so clean but these is up to clients too...

Staff member told me that the shop was busy. There were 10 customers including me. 6 seated amongst dirty messy tables and 3 queuing. This was our go-to coffee place. Costa now needs to up it's game: there are new cafes on the high street where staff will bring food and drink to the table and keep things clean. Sadly not my first poor Costa experience over recent weeks.

I don't like the new system of having to order on machine with card or having to do Drive through for cash . Chicken was a bit overdone .

Good customer service and staff always smiling.

the service isn't the worst but there is much better in the center of Stevenage. in the center of Stevenage the girls pour a full cup of coffee and here they don't. guys pour less coffee here.

Vio manager is very lovely. . I didn't know what I wanted she was really patient. When served she had a big smile. And her other staff was fast. Thank you for the birthday cake as well

Carrot cake was nice, blueberry muffin was okaish. Coffee was average. Overall not a very bad experience.

Service was terrible. Staff were more interested in chatting to, and giving free drinks, to their friends.

Grubby and tired like many Costa these days.

My go-to Costa, great staff, great coffee..

Staff aren’t great - seems to be understaffed all the time

Cafe latte could have tasted better

I went to Costa at the suggestion of the friend that I was meeting. I didn't know what to order, not wanting tea or coffee. In the end we settled on a red berry drink that was blitzed up with ice. It was OK but £4 was a lot for a small cup of it. On the bright side, the chap behind the bar was a great help in finding at least something on their menu that I was prepared to drink. To be honest, the place would probably better suit coffee drinkers, being a coffee shop. I forgot to take a picture, sorry. I imagine that, of you are in the game of going to coffee shops, you know the sort of thing that they are like. This one will probably meet with your expectations - and the toilet that I used was good too.

The hot chocolate was horriable

Buen sitio para desayunar y tomar algo rapido buena atencion al cliente

Good customer care. Wonderful coffee

The staff were very happy and helpful

Plenty of seating inside and some outside. Lovely staff very helpful

Very untidy - busy, but tables not cleated, so customers unable to sit down. Outside seating - pavement covered in cigarette butts

The only coffee shop in Stevenage I always feel valued and welcome at! Quality staff with the usual good quality coffee! I drive for uber so the parking in front is also very convenient

Quick service even in busy hours

As always just cannot go wrong at this costa coffee shop. Great service, good atmosphere and coffee really good. On my regular list. 👍😊

5th November 2022 update Service still very slow, almost 12 people queuing all the time with 5 waiting after my placing orders, even though they had 2 making coffee, 1 on the till. Floors still dirty, in some places sticky, as are the tables. Toilets not clean. Can getting extremely loud during busy times. Coffee standards dropped, as Christmas drink was warm, weak tasting and badly made. Cakes, only saving grace but had to ask for my cake order because it was not done till after the coffee. Had to ask for cutlery and napkins. Service, presentation and standards seriously dropped, lack of communication from till to coffee making then orders wrong or not completed. Will avoid for sometime.

It's a nice place, needs a makeover. The staff are always so polite, the food and coffee is good but the smokers out the front as you walk in, they put me off.

Lovely costa, lovely staff, but what is up with the freezing air conditioning? Today it's warm enough not to wear a jacket but it's freezing cold in here! My Fiance also said he came in a few weeks back and moved seat 3 times to try and escape the frezing air conditioning!

Good staff, but not enough. Tables weren't cleared or cleaned. Dingy atmosphere inside the restaurant. Nice in the summer to site outside on the council benches if there is space - the only positive. Sorry to be so critical.

Great location, super-easy parking right outside. The perfect place to sit and people watch over an iced coffee or for a light lunch. Excellent quality food, prepared quickly. Pleasant staff. A clean and spacious interior. An always reliably good cafe experience.

Normally I'm grabbing a coffee to go here but today we sat in for coffee and cake. Table felt a bit sticky and when I picked up the tray I could not believe how dirty the table was! Needs more than a wipe, a sanding clean would probably be more appropriate!

The staff are so lovely and friendly, love coming to this branch of Costa

Not enough attention paid to clearing/cleaning tables

Nice little coffee shop in the heart of the old town. Free parking outside if your lucky, staff are nice and nice atmosphere

Great coffee but don't try the iced cappuccino!

Lovely place for a coffee and snack

Great outlet would recommend very friendly staff

Had a pot of tea here. You could wipe the dust off the teapot and leave a clean line. Won't be visiting again, totally gross. How didn't they notice!!! Yuck.

Really nice coffee and experience in general. Me and my girlfriend were served by Daniela who answered all our questions, gave us great recommendations and all with a smile! When my girlfriend went to the toilet I asked Daniela, after a small time observing our relationship, if she thought we had a future. Daniela then proceeded to provide me with some of the most earth shattering, ground breaking and enlightening advice I’ve ever received. I proposed to my girlfriend (NOW fiancé) later that day! Daniela is going to officiate our ceremony next June <3 We owe our happiness and future to Daniela and Old Stevanage Costa, thank you!

Consistent low staff leading to long waiting times. Just walked out after a 15 minute wait in the queue. Again.

I enjoy coming here as the staff are always lovely and ready to help any way they can. It's always a pleasant visit.

Early morning visit 7.30ish. Fast efficient and friendly.

I have just been in costa in stevenage old town and witnessed one of the staff(Portuguese lady) show amazing customer service and compassion to a blind lady in such a way as to be discreet and honest compassion from gently touching her hand to let her know she was giving her change back to guiding her to her table all without a fuss, this lady is always pleasant and make a fuss of people dogs when we have coffee here... She is a great example of humanity and makes having a costa a pleasure

Great place to relax and have a lovely coffee ☕️

One of the largest and most comfortable Costa's I've been in. Staff are friendly and the coffee is good. Not the easiest place to park near to.

Always very pleasant staff in old town Costa. Today in particular I witness the young lad serving ( I believe his name is Stu) helping a visually impaired lady. He served her at the counter, then took her hand and led her to a table and then served her drinks. Was lovely to see. Such a pleasant lad:-)

Met with friend. Clean.Polite service.

Quick service from friendly staff

Good place to meet with a friend. Tables not too close. Can hear each other speak. A pot of tea and a coffee cost £5

Went in when visiting my family. Friendly service Nd

Great coffee and friendly staff

Quick, efficient and straightforward

Really not a fan. Costa coffee tastes terrible, its really noisy in the shop and with the Covid screens I find it really hard to make myself heard when ordering. Much better options out there, I would avoid.

Nice enough friendly coffee shop. Coffee sometimes not very hot or at all strong no matter how many extra shots.

Not the best experience and the table was absolutely filthy. When my daughter cleaned it with a sanitising cloth, it was filthy. Food on the floor etc too

Cosy clean busy, but a tad expensive £3 for a large cup of black coffee pricey

+points ...nice and spacious good coffee - points.... overpriced sandwiches and cakes Normal Costa.

Perfect coffee in a friendly atmosphere 👌🏼sometimes the staff are not enough for huge number of orders specifically in weekends

This Costa has recently been refurbished. Looks a lot better now . Staff are quick at doing the drinks and getting the queue down. The better one in Stevenage out of the three.

Only one size of coffee available with no explination.

Lovely hot chocolate with cream n marshmallows but needs to be slightly hotter

Met a friend I haven't seen in over a year. Great place to meet, relaxed atmosphere and lovely coffee

A relaxing and enjoyable place for coffee and a chat with friends

Always a pleasant experience at this Costa. Great service and delicious food and drink.

Very polite staff and nice coffee.

Not the friendliest service from the Romanian ladies, they should def learn some basic softskills. The toilet and tables inside were all very dirty and unattended. We asked for medium coffees, paid for medium coffes and got them small. When we told the ladies about the confusion they were very rude and rolled their eyes and started talking in their own language and make such a big deal about it like it was our fault. Really bad experience, put us off our coffees/cakes.

There three costas one in the new town in Stevenage one in the old town third in the roaring Meg retail park best times are 10am or 130pm 5pm onwards rest of the times it will be busy check on google search and type in costa Stevenage and you see how busy it mite be or not so busy live …. I recommend the services here and there hot chocolate and in the summer I recommend there extra cold milkshakes…

Very bad Costa coffee stevengate

It's Costa - what more can I say .

Pre ordered as in a hurry but only one drink prepared. No explanation at pick up point. When I finally asked where my other drink was I was told no coconut milk do you want something else? Made me late for work and the coffee they'd made was really bitter. No repeat business from me.....

Nice casual place for a coffee, it's a clean costa 👌🤣

Well ventilated. Latte was tasty!

Really enjoyed our visit recommend it

It's not Greek but it is coffee kinda false advertising I thought it'd be a Greek cafe but it's just a cafe

Very smiley peeps and quick, bitterest cappuccino ever.

Service incredibly slow, probably need more than 2 staff on at busier times

Ordered a large Mocha for collection, got home to find I had an expensive Latte! How on earth can you get that wrong? Of course no answer on the phone and my only recourse is to reacted and stand in a queue which defeats the object of me pre ordering in first place!

Lockdown status: usual Costa stuff but without the seats and toilets. Went from empty to queuing down the road in the space of 10 minutes when I was there on a Sunday.

Too good to go collection, socially distanced and felt clean and safe.

Long COVID queue was to be expected, but a little disorganised behind the counter, meaning the queuing took longer.

Poor customer service. Not wearing masks whilst preparing drinks during covid. Staff seen sniffing drinks to check if drink was correct. Not aware of stock. Making drinks poorly using little or no ingredients (syrups) when unavailable.

Service slow, but the whole area was clean. Staff have two speeds, dead slow and stop

Service was slick and they have all the measures to keep you safe. Service was prompt and it felt warmly and cosy.

Friendly staff and a clean/sanitised shopfront. Covid safe in my opinion

The staff were miserable and very slow didn't get orders correct, worst service ever

It was the first time we have been in since the lockdown ended. It seems well organized and they seemed to have a good range on offer. The barista and I struggled to hear each other through the partition but we got there in the end.

Service was superb. Quick and sharp.

Great service, quick delivery. not many tables and not in a rush to clear them otherwise would.of been 5 stars
