Costa Coffee in Barnet - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I visited your Costa on the A28 on outskirts of Canterbury today. I chose 2 toasties and went to order 2 coffees and 2 cakes. I stood at counter and watched and listened to what was a very unprofessional man who was obviously the manager or acting manager [not an a lister for sure] pouring milk into jugs while a woman co worker relayed him a message as she was on phone possibly from another branch of Costa. He was very abrupt and dismissive to her and who ever was on phone. While this 5 minute call was taking place at no stage did either of them actually make eye contact or say "We will be with you shortly" I decided that I would not wait any longer and left the toasties on the counter and headed towards the door expecting one of them to atleast give me an apologetic look or a sorry even if they did it without pronouncing it. I then said " Excuse me" The man looked up I said "Your service was very poor" He said " I am making the coffee's and she is on phone to another shop" I turned to the door and went out. I would not mind but there was no one else waiting. The company I work for purchase around £2000 in Costa vouchers a month in Swale area. As I give them out to members of staff on a daily basis. As I am an area manager. But I am tempted to advise them to find a different franchise to get vouchers from. I am so shocked by the managers stance on keeping customers waiting. I could not even make him feel even a little awkward. I have never complained like this before but I feel I need to on this occasion. All of your staff at other establishments have gone beyond there job descriptions and are exemplary. Keep up the good work Martin

The manager always happy and friendly i come because of her. I dont remember her name but she is reaally good

Just lovely, all the staff they are amazing, I love Emmaaa

Fantastic ,all good, Ema she s lovele nice and amazing

All very super star , Emma it’s the best

Emmanuela provides the best service every single morning when I buy my coffee. She puts a smile on my face every day ☺️

Good coffee, medium size is huge, no extra cost for soy milk, but the wifi doesn’t work and doesn’t seem like they have done anything about it for a long time judging by other reviews. Unfortunate because they advertise wifi and that’s the only reason I came here in the first place.

That’s amazing shop , all clean and professional service, thanks you for your service

All very good, all professional the staff are the best from all the costa coffee Thank you

All very professional the staff it's amazing and special the management thanks 🙏

The staff it’s very polite and really helpful, the manager it’s very hambel and hurt working, thanks for everything!!!

The coffee on this place it’s absolutely amazing, the manager it’s just lovely, thank you

Costa in Burnt Oak is spacious and always busy and lively. Nice staff, a good selection of food and big, bright windows

Larger than average Costa with plenty of seating, WiFi and the usual Costa fayre.

Nice atmosphere and was a good place to stop and wait for my car to be repaired at Magic Auto repair by Burnt Oak station.

Best if you have no other option

The other acting manager who serves on Tuesday is brilliant, I hope the company promotes The cafe manager, could customer service skills. I have witnessed her shouting and arguing at customers. It is so uncivilised.

I was today at Costa coffee Edgware Broadwalk ,the staff there they're very professional and polite, except one of their staff that she is very rude and disrespectful ,with most of the clients and she is black pony tail longhair ,I think she is Romanian national,I hope the management will take action against their staff 😞

The girl called maria she do the worst ever coffee she doesn’t have any clue about how to make coffee if there was a (0) review i would be gave it for sure.

The coffee that I ordered doesn't taste nice when asked to change it was refused. Bad customer service and very reluctant to understand from customer requirements. Someone need to look into this matter. This is at Burnt Oak costa coffee staff has an attitude and doesn't care about customers.

One member of staff she was nasty to me only because i told her to change the bad coffee she made, i will think twice before i come here

ALBERTA the store manager here is the core problem, she is terribly rude. Horrible woman good people should stay away from her

Spacious seating inside and some outside too.

I left the store disappointed because I ordered a Terry's Orange® Hot Chocolate and the employee made a normal hot chocolate with another topping and when I asked if it was what I ordered she said they were all the same. If they were all the same, the company wouldn't launch them, I always go to Costa cafe stores and I may not know how to make the drinks, but there really is a difference in flavor, the employee didn't even add the correct topping. A very negative point for the company because I am always in the Burnt Oak region and I probably won't return to this store again.

Really nice for the area to have decent coffee shops.

The staff were friendly and I manage to work whole day without any interruption :) Thank you.

Nice place. Excellent customer service! A pleasure to go there and have am americano! 😂

The Grils are Very polite and friendly This Costa is my favourite Shop.

Food and drink was made well just how I asked

Very spacious, clean, good AC system and of course good stuff whom all seems to be very friendly. Just like it should

I ordered a coffee today. I was the first in line and I was the last to be served. After I asked if the coffee was ready, seeing that the staff was serving those behind me. I asked if the coffee was ready and I received the worst coffee I've ever had drink one and at the end the lady looks at me in disgust.

Spacious Costa with fast staff.

Capucino delicios Ambianta placuta

Not my favourite Costa as they tend to either make the coffee wayyyyy to hot or to cold never spot on like other branches. But never the less the coffee avaliable is top notch. Food rated 1 star as like all costs...... it costa feking bomb for a little sliver not a slice of anything and it's not worth the price. But this place is well maintained and staff are friendly.

Store manager Alberta is the worst and rude person ever. She make the horrible cold coffee which is not costa taste at all. Never ever visit burnt oak branch.

Very rude and arrogant store manager alberta something. She made the worst coffee and argue all the time with all the costumers. She should learn some manners to talk to customers. She was very rude and i’am coming back here again

Didn't have any food but usual great coffee, fast freindly service

Be careful with milk from Costa .it may have a surprise home .

Staff was rude and unhelpful refused to taking Scottish money even through it was sterling and legal tender lucky had a card

the coffee its good , people are nice with me.

Always had a friendly experience with staff throughout covid and every time we came here. It's an amazing place to chill out and escape from the busy bustle of London. With two large windowed sides it's also a great place for people watching to pass the time 😁👀

I reslly like the cozy ambience in Costa matching the drizzle weather outside. I'm late for work and underground line got suspended due to fire. Need to change my route to a long way. From 30mins to 90mins via bus. Needed some comfort food to lessen the stress level. I already went in wenzels but didnt buy anything. I remember this costa branch near my bus stop and popped in quick. Ordered cortado and jammy shortbread whilst waiting for my bus.

Coffee was bitter and undrinkable

Manager very rude told me to get out because I wanted my free drink Very rude establishment . Never will I visit again

Stuff manager wants to argue and are very rude telling me to go somewhere else over free drinks built up on my app they don’t want to honour it , as they are franchises . The boss allows this behaviour to carry on I spend over annual £2419. For 3 years this is what I get. Already I had arguments because I asked why prices have increased. Manager and staff are not behaving in a costa environment very aggressive and always wanting to argue and management arguing back not diffusing making staff feel as they can do it too is what I Experienced today . I suggest you don’t visit here and ask questions. Or you will experience negative experience .

Saw staff member make fun of a customer.

Nice customer service Best coffee maker what I ever experience, manager the best one Thanks u guys

Parking is an issue and it can get very busy at times.

Bad service. The girl European manager got no manners. And the way she talk to a certain customer special Asians are rude. Feels like she's always above to them. I was suprise that Costa a big company will hire people like that ..

Oat milk was missing and other vegetables milk options as well, as least when I went to visit the shop Staff was great but cleaning could be MUCH more improved and the kind of people using the space could also be improved, specially if they're not costumers

The staff are very rude on Sunday morning

Bought a strawberry frappe and I'll say though it tasted good, the cashier was rushing me to order. Although I find these shops confusing with all the different milks and prices and such so when asking questions she wasn't very accommodating. The vibe was abit off, everyone staring at you when you walk inside like its a private cafe lounge. The young lady who made my drink made it well🤩🤩. I wouldn't really use this Costa unless I had to. I prefer starbucks anyway.

Breakfast and caffe latte delicious

Asked for a medium cappuccino for take out so i asked the polish lady how long it might take you to make a coffee and she gets all angry yelling because she dont know how long it takes to make a coffee 😹 poor understanding of english, rude no clue about customer service. Shame

As someone who worked for 3 years as a barista I can say this coffee shop really dissapointed me.The blonde girl was rude for no reason. I know how hard is to work in customer service that’s why everywhere I go I will be extra nice and respect everyone but this girl was rude and angry with everything. Drinks? Very bad made.

Lovely little shop with some super friendly staff too. Drinks are always made super quickly and the shop itself is pretty clean too

Un personal de nota 10 mulțumesc recomand cafeaua este excepțională

Long awaited but worthy review: I will be stating both employee and customer perspective; The manager of this branch is a really horrible person to work with. She does not direct the staff, she scolds them and taunts them. This is the most disgraceful and illiterate way to manage the staff. Everyone would feel disrespected, some wont be confident in their training, and the rest would be following such horrible Footsteps with their colleagues. Everybody their uses the same ordering tone with the newcomers. The manager even does favoritism and ignores the trainees and keep them for cleaning most of the time. The one barista has already left cleaning the toilets which every barista is supposed to do. She orders the new joiners to do so with the same tone of manager, being her favorite. With this injistice, high level of poor management can be observed in this branch. With the pressure of memorizing and doing things right, oftentimes there are mistakes even in simple orders. Hence, There is a very high turnover of staff in this branch. She has the audacity to invite people for interview and reject them on the basis of already shared details over the phone interview. Staff cannot take their own initiative to perform a good customer service. She eats everything without buying, which is the rule for every employee, and expects the staff to buy. On the other hand, staff and customer both are shouted on. The manager is so proudy that she even scolds the customer when managing them. Customers laugh at her. Imagine the brand image which Costa is gaining. I have noted alot of customers who have stopped to come here with only a few loyal customers to see. She laughs on the face and disrespects both; employees and the customers. People passing by arent allowed to use the toilets, where every branch of costa has never stopped anyone to do so. Thank you for reading. Respect you money and peace, and stop visiting this branch. Best wishes

So this store suffers from poor management, most of the staff a pretty decent but management is often inflexible when making drinks that any other Costa would not bat an eyelid to make. The way they speak to you is very abrupt and way off being close friendly.

Too many people sitting in the best seats for hours, with an empty cup, using the internet on their laptops, and what do the staff do? NOTHING

Excellent. Lovely spacious setting. Friendly staff except the dark haired manager. Incredibly rude.

Always a great place to grab my morning coffee the team are great and friendly

Small tiny shop good friendly service

Great meeting place, easy parking.

Worst service ever!!! Asked a simple question if the carrot cake was suitable for vegetarian and got reply there's no animals in it.

Dreadful place. Not especially clean and fisticuffs between staff and customers don't encourage one to return!

Rude staff sunday morning black hair and lots of make up dont know her name she shouts and horrible attitude

Lovely Cappacino ! A perfect way to escape the rainy weather. ☺️

Yesterday I was served by a trainee barista on the till who couldn't understand that I need just normal Latte with no caramel ( I repited a few times, but no luck) Besides, she didn't ask if I want to use my rewards to pay before putting it through. I talked to a working barista on site ( her name is Emanuella if I remember it right) but she also did the service quite fair. Had to ask for sweets with the festive coffee twice as she wasn't planning to give it with the coffee. Very unsatisfied with the service. But the coffee itself was tasty.

Cozy place, staff was nice, tea was good.

lady got our order confused other than that the coffee as excellent

My wife loves their toasted cheese and tomato sandwiches and staff are always very helpful and friendly and great coffee

Friendly service staff are always smiling and very polite

They don even bother to read the notes when you order online!!! I got a coffee a muffin and a sandwich and I choose the option to toast at home and guess what they toast it for me even tho I don’t eat it not just later it will be spoiled,cold and hard!!! Ready the notes it’s not that hard!!!!!

Friendly staff, and great fast service.

A very good and delicious frappe

Quick service and ample seating in and out

Very nice and clean cafe. Staffs are polite and respectful. Nice and tasty drinks. Big shop which you can always find a seat. Would go there again and recommend.

Very welcoming and helpful staffs. Had a great and loving experience.

Great service lovely staff and the food and drinks are also good

Clean and spacious store.Not too crowded

Love Costa coffee - coconut milk latte with - sugar free vanilla ( an amazing dairy alternative drink) try ittt

Newly refurbished, clean with friendly staff, what else can you ask for when you go out with your wife for a coffee in weekend?

Usually good £3 bags, wel worth the money but depends who puts them together.

My wife asked to use the toilet ( she is pregnant 7 months). Emanuela store manager and Lana the other girl that was there insisted she can not use the restroom if we do not buy something...

The crew is very cooperative and helped us out to prepare the drinks without sugar considering doctor guidelines. Loved it !

Nice Staff, everything clean, and great service. 👍

The staff are very friendly and helpful, fulfilling your order quickly and efficiently.

Much appreciated and welcome relief when looking for good hot drinks and food stuff.

Nice spacious Costa to chill. Great when its not busy. I go to meet up with friends and work but not a huge fan of costa coffee in general

Lovely service and great product.

Fantastic place to have a coffee and chat lovely staff friendly

Staff are nice. Seats are arranged for social distancing.

Over busy. Good service and quality coffee/tea.

I came here to work (since its a Cafe with a plug and WiFi) but... the WiFi doesn't work. The staff just apologised and didn't help getting it fixed. Quite unreliable.

Very friendly and quick service. Very kind staff to our young people from a local NHS service

Din rau in tot mai rau la costa...
