Costa coffee Rope Walk Bedford. This coffee venue needs a massive sign, NO ACCESS FOR WHEEL CHAIR USERS. You could go in, be served, then no room at all to maneuver to any seat. If you just wished to use the disabled toilet, there is no room to get through the seating area to it. If the entire cueue of people waiting to be served evacuated the area, you could gain access. Hmm. So i name this coffee establishment as Access Denied for anyone with mobility difficulties. I would prefer to give no stars at all. Ian Player.

Staff is friendly and nice. Drinks are good esp frappe in summer and hot chocolate in winter. My kids love Mango n passion fruit cooler in summer. I'm not a big fan of food served here esp the croissants which was really bad. If its fresh, then might be better. Staff is nice and friendly. Internet and toilets are available.

I visited on Friday 7th of June at 19:06 I believe they close at 19:00 soon as I grab the door a women shouted we closesd, so I asked can we use to toilet please as I was with my pregnant wife and she needed to use the toilet, and another staff member's little shot shouted NO GET OUT! I was shocked you guys need to train your staff and teach them some manners this is very poor from a brand like Costa.

Service was a bit slow but I think it was doing induction training for a new starter as she didn't know that milk should accompany a pot of tea! Cakes are OK but grossly overpriced, slices are cut way too small compared to other places. I had a struggle to get my free coffee that I was due, but persistence paid off eventually. It seems to depend on which staff are working that day.

Came to Costa for a hot chocolate, was served by Terry who was very polite, welcoming and smily however whilst being served, a colleague of his spoke to him extremely rude and had a nothing but a stinking attitude. Her attitude stunk more than my dog’s poo on my shoe and I wanted to tell her about her attitude however was swayed by my partner. She needs to attend some sort of customer service training. Thanks Terry for an outstanding service. Kudos to you but not your colleague

My support worker and I used the drive through to buy a latte each. When we parked up to drink them my support workers coffecwas so full it spilt everywhere and burnt both of us and went in my car . She went back in to ask for cloths to try and clean my car as the milk would start to smell as time passes and explained what happened. The only thing that was offered was a refund. There was no real urgency to help. We had to clean everything. The manager is supposed to be ringing my support worker. If I have to have my car...which is a mobility car for my disabilities....valeted that will be a lot of expense for me. I will lose my deposit if my car is not in good condition. I will never visit again. The standard of service and quality of coffee has been going downhill rapidly and this was the straw that broke the camels back.

Great customer service and have been here many times over the years. It’s not cheap but it’s costa so prices aren’t set by them… For me, they’ve always got orders correct (I have allergies so worry about wrong orders), and tables are generally clean. Plenty of (free) parking in the retail park too. There’s also a drive thru too which isn’t clearly labelled on Google maps but very visible when you visit.

Met a friend for coffee during lunch hour. Queue out the door on arrival. Then when inside not much selection in terms of sandwiches. Stock was replenished much later. We thought we would try Christmas menu. Waiting 10mins for drinks to be prepared. Ordered two Toblerone lattes. Really horrid taste that we couldn't bear to finish. Out of politeness I went up and ordered our usual drinks instead. Again I stood waiting 14mins just for my drinks to be prepared. By this time I've almost lost 35mins of time with my friend. It just made it such an uncomfortable experience. It would have been much quicker to go through the drive through. Standards at this particular Costa has really slipped. Not sure we will continue to meet at Costa in future which is sad as its always been my got to place.

I had the Costas Lemonade today and to be honest with you I don't think that there is a more refreshing drink on the market. It is lemonade squeezed into ice. It's naturally tasty and makes you feel totally hydrated in a way that no other drink does. No purchased drink I have consumed comes close and I can't recommend it enough.

Service great, but coffee flavour was bad. Costa ice late we couldn't drink - thats how bad that was... Lime and coconut loaf flavour wasn't nice at all. Very disappointed.

Busy, both inside & at the drive thru but even so, the wait time in the queue was too long. I don't remember having to wait so long on previous visits. Poor lad manning the drive thru window had to wend his way thru the whole seating area to collect food items for drive thru orders from the chilled cabinet, lengthening the wait for those customers. Time & motion study required, I'd say! No tables had been cleared so we were having to do that ourselves & I was given no serviettes, which was problematic when I lifted my iced mocha to discover that the lid wasn't firmly in place!! But my lunch was good...just a shame normal standards had slipped a little today!!
