Ordered a few drinks, not busy. Barista on till was friendly. I specifically asked for half the chocolate in a hot chocolate (to make it less rich) and the team on bar seemed to think there was an invisible sound proof wall between them and customers because when one barista asked about it the other said ‘it doesn’t matter, nobody cares’. I piped up asking them to make it as requested and clearly they realised they’d been heard. They were not cleaning jugs between drinks, just topping up more milk and reheating milk endlessly. They also still didn’t get the order right woth the other drinks. Overall a bad experience both customer service wise and quality of product.

I come here quite alot with my mum. We always grab a coffee and bit of cake after walking round the shops. The staff are fab! Hats off to them as the shop is always busy and they always seem rushed off their feet but always greet you with a warm welcome and a smile.

Wasnt offered a receipt. Teller was distracted by her kid running round. Perhaps it wasnt even rung up as no order slip was generated either. Took a while and second time I went up the new girl hadn't gotten a paper slip saying what my order was and so hadnt started. She was just told it was a chai latte and so began making a regular, when I ordered a large, had to point out the large cup to her. Used full fat milk not skinny, but I didn't want to upset her on her first day again so I said nothing this time. She was new, obviously, and asked how to make it and was snapped at by teller saying "its just milk and syrup, literally" . The girl didnt know how much syrup, and tried to add a coffee shot and I had to stop her. My chai latte was the cold side of luke warm and only tasted of milk, hardly any chai flavour at all. I went up and asked if the teller could maybe make it this time but she was chatting to her son as she worked, and a queue had formed. She snapped she would get to it when she had dealt with the crowd. All of whom came in after me. After waiting a while I went back up and a chai latte was sitting behind counter, ignored, and a milk pot was boiling over. I asked if it was mine and was told its coming next. I said maybe make mine before the whole queue as I was here first while shop was empty and was snapped at by the teller who said she had all these people to serve. She then made a fuss of her mum and her son as she gave them their iced drinks to go. She then went back to the queue but I didnt sit down this time. So she went over to the the chai latte that had been sitting all this time (it was the one I had handed back earlier, they just poured a bit out of the top then forgot about it or think I hadnt been watching) and topped it up with hot milk. It was weaker and colder than the first one. The teller had ignored my request that she make my drink this time (so the trainee might learn too) and said again she had lots of drinks to make first. I said I would take a refund and she told me she would get to me with that when she finished with the queue. I said my car was parked and meter ticking I would have to come back for a refund. I felt bad for the trainee because she needed help but I've had chai latte from that teller before and she knows how to make it and wasn't showing the trainee. When I got back to my car i remembered no receipt or order slip had been generated so I had no way to get a refund later. I think she might have accidentally rung up the order her kid was shouting that he and his gran wanted to take away when they left, but my change was right so I could be wrong on that. Time was 1020hrs at Musselburgh Costa. I got a bank text as I ordered. I arrived with no one in queue and left and sat down in my car outside and began writing this at 1050hrs, with no drink, no refund and choice of leaving or being made to wait for a quiet spell. £4.15 out of pocket and had to move my car and come back for other messages too. So a 1.5hr car parking message run became twice that.

Manky. Overflowing bucket. Floor was covered in crumbs. No where to sit as i dont sit at manky tables with folks germ laden used cups plates and tables. Thats right: no hygene on tabletops. This was a quiet day. 2 staff only there to cash in and take orders were blind to mess and overflowing dispense bucket. For reasons ( perhaps stench) they had door open which wont help as the smke coming from the outside table flows in.

Order had to be returned as drink was not made to order ,then when remade the drink it was cold,ended up leaving my drink as did My freind wasn't happy at all , complete waste of money as we had bought a bite to eat with our drinks but as they had been returned and then served Luke warm after correction of order we didn't even eat all our snacks as they were now cold ,poor service staff weren't freindly and was kept waiting for 5 minute's (even though only 1 person in front of me who had already been served) before being served 1 staff was making coffee and the girl was busy writing something n Told me to hang on for couple of minutes , I'm a regular of Costa coffee and i get first class service all the time from st Andrews square , this has got to be my worst experience ever with Costa ,in my opinion it gives Very poor representation of your company

Staff insisted on using QR code for track & trace before being served.This is not appropriate for customers with physical disabilities & learning disabilities who dont have a mobile phone or the ability to work the QR system. A pen & paper would be sufficient but this is not in line with their policy?? This caused a lot of embarrassment. DISCRIMINATION springs to mind.

Baristas act a bit like customers are occupational hazards. Not indicative of Costa but the guys who serve us badly need a customer service course because it clearly does not come naturally. May be just a bad day. Clearly efficiently work hard but surely and automatic. There's other mom & pop coffee shops in Mussleburgh with more invested and at stake.

Here ar 2pm on a tuesday and really disappointed. Staff mumble rather than speak so I struggled to hear or understand. They made me the wrong coffee and even the corrected order was executed poorly with really badly steamed milk. 2 inches of foam and no actual textured milk on a latte isnt ideal.. I ordered lemon drizzle cake which was stale. There were no clean tables, plenty of free tables but they all had used cups and plates on them. Such a shame as I was looking forward to the treat of a nice coffee and piece of cake.

Costa Musselburgh used to be the best store in Edinburgh but sadly over the last 6 months it has declined to such an extent it is unrecognisable. Poor quality coffee, slow and unfriendly service. Cleanliness is shocking. The new manager is a disgrace, no customer service at all. Very rude to the regulars. I queued for over 15 mins to get served then waited 14 minutes for my 2 drinks. Total disgrace, won't be back until the manager is replaced

Just been to Musselburgh Costa & very disappointed today -customer in front decided to enquire about re-useable cups etc which was fine but it meant that while 1 server told them they had a specific cup & was great etc & demonstrated a few models the other server stood & watched the discussion while 6 other customers waited to be served!!! Surely 1 server could have dealt with 1st customer & other could have started to serve queue??- i had to leave as couldn't listen anymore to the ins & outs of why a cup was being purchased etc & also time was of the essence passing by so my £15.00 order was not placed & as i left i heard a few other customers rather disgruntled too!!
