I’ve Had to go back around the drive through multiple times in the past because of the barister Chloe never making my drinks right, always seems in a rush , never full to the top always lacking taste and too frothy when I often order a latte coffee which should be slightly frothy. Major inconvenience for me having to come back around when I pay enough money to have my drink made right the first time. Train staff to be better!

BEWARE!!!! Just learnt that parking fines have been issued to me and a friend for being at Costa for just over an hour. No signage visible on site to state time limits to park. I am disgusted, and also reading reviews on here that this has happened to many other customers. Costa - disgraceful conduct at this site, sort it out. !!!!

Well as a regular customer of Costa in birch grove Swansea ! I was appalled by the manner of some (not all of the drive through staff) when I attended on the 26/12/24 @ 3.30pm ! Really not helpful and definitely could work on their customer service skills!

BEWARE!!!! £170 PARKING FINES even if you are a paying customer! Costa couldn’t care less about this and are happy for their customers to be fined. Service, food and atmosphere not worth risk of £170 fine. Have been a regular customer of Costa but will now AVOID!

This place is absolutely disgusting! Costa should be ashamed with themselves with what they’re putting my disabled partner through. 3 letters from bailiffs for £170 EACH due to ‘unpaid parking charges’ for parking there for a hour. No prior parking notices, no warnings, nothing in the post or on the car to indicate she’d received a ticket until bailiffs chasing her around. Just a way for Costa to scam money off of vulnerable people. Been loyal customers to Costa for decades, will be boycotting from now on.

Be warned there is an absolute muppet of a barrister called Jack working here that serves scolding hot drinks for children - I know because a babychino for my child was so hot, the top of the cup crippled in my grasp and went all over me. Absolute moron serving drinks that hot which are meant for small children!

It's as expected for a Costa, very busy (not an atmosphere I personally like) and lots of passing trade. Enjoyable sat outside in the sun with a caramel frap but for someone that doesn't regularly call into Costa, I felt a little rushed to order and overwhelmed by the menus, didn't quite get what I wanted. Was an ok experience overall and would possibly call again on passing. Service was great, I thought the setup was efficient.

Unfortunately, there were only 4 in front of me, but the wait was aweful. Five members of staff working so why did it take over 25 mins? I experienced extremely slow service. Managed to just get served for the bfast deal ended at 11am. But then the bacon in the roll was burnt, one coffee cold while waiting for the toastie. So our quick visit turned into a very long visit. Others were wondering where their other half had gone as they were so long waiting. Even children were getting fustrated for their drinks after their football match. Others gave up. The drive-in cars were waiting someway up the carpark. Over 7 waiting...engines running. Many tried to turn around . Will certainly rethink about visiting this Costa again on a weekend! An improvement in service or more staff is definitely required.

There is a time limit of 1 hour 30 mins in the car park even if you're a paying customer. Despite spending £12.00 in store I have now received a £100 parking fine as I stayed for just under 2 hours. Email sent to Costa Coffee, but they will not assist so I'm left to deal with the delightful Parking Eye, who will no doubt reject my appeal and start sending threatening letters. What an absolutely horrendous way to treat your customers.

I had a quick stopover while travelling from Swansea in the evening, order two large black teas with milk, regular and large teas cost the same. This Costa Coffee is off the roundabout next to the M4 motorway and is easy to get to. Ideal for a coffee break if you don't want to stop at the Services. Parking spaces available with a drive thru although it can be a bit tight.

Usually I have a good service at this costa with friendly staff and good service. Today however I ordered 4 drinks, one of them with oat milk due to allergies. The lady messed up two drinks in our order, giving us 2 caramel frappes instead of 2 chocolate fudge ones. I know mistakes happen so I said I ordered 2 fudge frappes, one with oat milk. The woman serving us then gained a poor attitude, proceeding to glare at me and other customers and slamming the drinks into a bin. She then proceeded to remake the drinks. When she redid the drinks and completed the order she slammed the drinks down onto the counter and proceeded to have an appalling attitude. All because we asked nicely if she would redo our order. We didnt do anything to deserve such poor customer service. Hate to say I will not continue my frequent visits to the birchgrove again.

It's what you expect from Costa. However there is nothing you can rate with regards to equipment the parent company makes the business use, I found I was often being charged twice using Google Pay contact less. The bank confirmed it is a known issue with all Costa's and seemingly only Costa. It's not the staff's, they have always been flawless. It's a Costa HQ issue so make sure you pay cash until Costa HQ announce they get payments fixed.

Service inside always very slow. Drive through is quicker, if not much of a queue. Even when relatively few customers inside it's always very slow with one person serving at the till and making the drinks. Quality of food and drinks is fine, consistent with other Costa outlets (although we were given the wrong drink on our last visit which contained dairy, after ordering a dairy-free drink). I would recommend using the app to order ahead for pick up if you are passing and in a hurry.

Good ship, biggest problem you have ar this costa is that if the drive through is busy it takes an age to get served and then get your coffee. Not the fault of the staff but there were 4 batista on site and they all struggled to talk to you without being interrupted by the drive through. If I was to recommend anything would be to have member of staff dedicated to shop customers.

Disappointed Return Visit I first reviewed this place seven years ago and, unfortunately, my recent return was a let-down. Food: The food is passable but overpriced. In a city like Swansea, which now has a growing number of excellent, authentic Chinese restaurants, this one doesn't stand out. The lack of Chinese clientele is telling. £6 for a single mug of green tea is absurd—especially when most authentic Chinese establishments offer unlimited tea as a standard, palate-cleansing courtesy. While they do offer a wider range of vegetarian options than many Chinese restaurants, that edge has dulled over time. There are now better vegetarian choices in the city, offering more flavour and better value. Ambiance: If you're after a showy, stereotypical setting, you'll likely enjoy it. The entrance is plastered with adverts and reviews, suggesting it's pitched more as an attraction than a serious dining experience. Think of it like a theme park—if that’s your thing, you’ll get what you came for. Personally, I found it cringeworthy. Service: Service was slow and unprofessional given the price point. For the money, there are other places in Swansea offering more attentive service and a more relaxed, genuine atmosphere.

We had an excellent stay at Morgan's. Amy and Ben gave us such a warm welcome, and we were thrilled to receive a complimentary upgrade to the stunning Henry Belle suite—full of beautiful period features and grand, elegant décor. The bar had a lovely, relaxed ambience—perfect for a pre-show drink before heading to the Grand. Breakfast was another highlight, with an impressive selection of fresh produce alongside a delicious full cooked option. We’ll definitely be back!
