Costa Coffee in Basingstoke and Deane - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Very quiet cafe. Two nice lovely ladies working.

Have just visited this spot, staff are fantastic. Have just watched Jack deal with an older gentleman extremely compassionately and with real grace, during a really busy period. If you read this Jack, be proud of yourself! Little kindnesses go so far. Superior customer service!

Went to this Costa yesterday 12/08/2024 It was an awful experience, there was 3 members of staff working, 2 of them were working on the tills and making drinks, the other was just wondering around the store, not sure what he was actually doing. The queue was out the door and the staff were so slow at getting people served and at making the drinks. I have been to many Costas all over the UK and I am a Costa card holder. But I will never visit this branch again as the service was appalling. As a disabled customer who walks with a walking stick I really struggled to stand in the queue but needed a drink to take my medication so had no choice. The staff were all laughing and messing around behind the counter and they could see that myself and another man were struggling standing up in the queue but it made no difference to there behaviour. I appreciate it was a really hot day and everyone was hot but that's not an excuse for poor customer service. Costa sort it out and retrain these people!!!!!

Convenient position in the shopping centre Plenty of seats. A typical coffee shop. I do not like them trying to encourage buying more shots knowing them not to be good for you

I went to order cold drinks with my siblings today and queue was long I did wait and I wasn’t sure what drink to buy as it was the first time and I was taking time to order the rights drink as I had to translate into french. But there was no need as I’ve been served by mamado that speak french well and recommend some nice drinks that I was looking for. Nice drinks with a great service. I’ll definitely comeback on my next visit.

I order the macchiato coffee but is not coffee. It is awful!

Lucy from Basingstoke Festival Place (Ground Floor) was such a lovely lady! The person behind me pushed in front and got served before me and Lucy, who was at the phone and realised what had happened, had reassurede me that I would get served straight away and she gave me a lovely discount for the inconvenience. Thank you so much Lucy!

The staff is very very rude! So disappointing as the coffe is good

Great service, and superb coffee

No one respect no one, people are talking and behaving like is their place, the barista try to understand on that loud atmosphere what you want to order😡

Always on point with my coffee here!

Stoliki brudne, brak śmietników.

Regular haunt Very friendly and efficient staff

Long queues. Drinks can vary in temperatures you can have the same drink hot one day and Luke warm another.

Got two coffees and got shouted at by Olivia at the till as she messed up the order as I actually ordered one coffee and one hot chocolate, whilst waiting I observed all staff members using the same knife to cut all toasties without cleaning or at very least wiping it down so whether your Vegan/Veggie or have allergies it's a game of roulette! Bit iffy bare in mind Pret killed someone with nut allergy in the past!!

Good Costa, friendly staff, food and coffee to Costa's usual high standards.

Great service with a smile in here

Busy cafe, drinks alot more expensive than normal

A good place for a latte and a slice of cake

Nothing special but functional and clean

Lovely coffee, options to sit out

Yummy food and drinks and quick service as always :)

Staff were lovely, but the cake was a bit tired.

Excellent service, lovely food and they do de-caf tea

Standard Costa, good coffee, if over priced, and OK food.

Not very clean and also drinks very expensive

I went to costa yesterday, felt I was ignored. Two ladies at the counter seems to chatting with third person. Didn’t apologise nor welcomed customer. I literally had to stand there in front of them waiting to be served. Didn’t like the service.

Excellent food and fast efficient service.

😢 The staff at the time of my visit seemed to be well-staffed, however, I noticed that no one was cleaning the tables. There was a young lady with blonde hair who seemed to be engaged in a conversation with someone. It appeared to me that they knew each other, rather than her working at the moment.

Tried new Frappe. Was undrinkable and warm. Staff not helpful. Cafe was hot and dirty. A disgrace to Costa.

A bit mucky inside at times. Wood paneling needs dusting!!

Quick friendly and clean. Offered to warm my pastry which was a nice touch

Great staff very friendl good service management always remembers my drink.

Richard needs retraining on customer service. Being on the phone while taking my order doesn’t scream good customer service.

Regular visitor to this restaurant. Always friendly and welcoming whenever I visit with my colleague before work. The manager is always upbeat and the regular team always make us feel welcome.

One member of staff in a mood and slamming about, not good for the atmosphere

Good coffee. Fast service. Very busy as usual for a Saturday morning.

The food is great and so is everyone else working in the cafe except the big black dude that rushes people through their orders and assumes that you picked up the wrong item. He took my wife’s and my sisters orders and butchered them. The place is good, the big dude just needs to tone down his attitude a little.

Service very slow, despite not being busy. Good coffee.

Staff very rude and poor customer service. Dirty tables and cutlery

They refused to take £50 pound note the lady at till has said they don’t take 50 pound notes i don’t understand why they don’t want take if you decide that you dond accept them you should put note on wall or they just done that to me

Such slow service after waiting for 15 minutes in the queue without bring served me and my husband left. No priority in getting customers getting their orders. What a shamble. Bunch of slow workers

Staff are so lovely, thoughtful and helpful always a pleasure

It's Costa, what's not to like :)

Myself and my friend went into costa in festival place Basingstoke this morning. The place was disgusting with counter tops covered in coffee powder and the coffee machine with filthy. Only one member of staff having to serve everyone. The counter tops have not been cleaned in a while as it was everywhere. I certainly will not be going back.

Standard costa coffee. Good choice and caters for allergies with the drinks (not the food). Very nice staff and lots of seating. Very busy most weekends!

Located in an excellent place within Basingstoke but, as it's a Costa, you're paying a lot of money for anything.

Service was fast and what we bought was slightly more than I'd have wanted but overall very good.

Costa is one of my favourite coffee shops. It is less pretensious than other big names. They serve great coffee with a variety of milk options followed by multiple pastry options. The staff are very welcoming. The hot chocolate is also famous. I confess that their prices have edged up but costs have risen.

Table could do with a wipe but nice staff and quick service

Irs Costa. Good coffee, hot fast, not the cheapest but good coffee and comfy seating...

Cheaper coffee is available elsewhere but you knew that before you decided to enter. Mind you the Mint aero chocolate is worth every penny

Very poor customer service in this Costa Branch. After waiting long in the queue, Find this lady on the till very rude and impolite. Won’t go there again. Later on realised there were other costa branch within the Festival place. What a poor service.

Good place to get lunch after the cinema! Had a really nice wiltshire ham & cheese toastie with caramel slice after.

Much nicer than Starbucks it would be even better if they made proper tea on a teapot with tea leaves.

Coffee that everyone loves.. kids can have baby Chino with marshmellows. Both in and outside sitting arrangements

My favourite of all the coffee shops.

Lovely mocha and blueberry muffin in pleasant surroundings

Busy store but staff work hard. Well stocked. Outside seating is indoors.

Always so busy long queue nor enof serving staff behind counter!!! Getting fed up with the long wait!

Awful. Long queues and poor service.

Can't remember going in there recently

Fantastyczne kawa, zawsze miła obsługa. Polecam

Good service, I'm in a wheelchair so they carried it out for me without me asking. The coffee tasted just like a Costa flat white (funny old thing).

We visit that place for mom and little one date 🙂 and our 5yo had just a cupcake and after that, few hour later up to next two nights he was really ill, including vomiting. Never ever will go there. Please ask for a date of the products before you buy anything.

Why do they let people sit ther for hours on end working on laptops when real customers cannot get a table.will not visit again

Does its job but seems to lack charm.

Food was excellent and service was very good. Will be recommending to all

Checked out this Costa today.Signage on the door states that they are aiming to keep their customers safe. Saw no wiping down of tables between customers inside or outside of the store.No masks being worn by customers entering or by the staff.The rail where people wait for their order wasn’t wiped down either. I did my own table and chair and another customer outside did her table and chair back.The shop was not busy,two members of staff were sitting at an inside table and two staff behind the counter.

Polite and friendly staff, and clean and tidy cafe

Good place to sit and people watch, good friendly staff coffee well its costa.

We sat inside and given disposable cups, wasn't impressed as I had a hot chocolate with squirty cream and was given with lid to drink it. Wasn't good with the cream

Clean, tidy and spacious,. Standard coffee experience.

Lovely latte and cake. Friendly staff.

It does what it says on the cup..😂 !

One of the best coffee experience.

Consistently good all round. Social and helpful. But of a community centre.

One of my favourite places.friendly staff .got to love a Bakewell tart

I love it here. My little haven before I shop in town. Richard and the rest of the staff are always so courteous and friendly they can’t help put a smile on your face, even when they are busy. A good selection of cakes and sandwiches and always make my coffee just how I like it.

Great instant friendly service.

It's a Costa... you can't go wrong

I still need China cups and plates paper is not the same 🤓

If you like Coffee your enjoy this place

Got my order wrong and staff not helpful at all without some discussion counter staff unknowlegeable

It was good, brought our drinks out to us as I was pushing my wife in her wheelchair which was very kind of them.

About she slowest service going. 20mins to get one coffee, and it wasn't even busy.

Wot u' avin??, rude till people, go elsewhere, theres a pret opposite or Caffè Nero down the mall

Staff are friendly tables clean

The best ice drink and cake that I have had

Very good me and my granddaughter had coffee and milkshake 😋so nice to sit and wach the world go by

When did a flat white become £2.80?!? Didn't even put sugar in it as requested, too scared to ask after in case that was another 20p! 😅

Very helpful staff and had a good choice of food and drinks. Did not have trays to carry food which did not help as I have a walking stick and can only carry one item of food. A bit difficult if you have more than one person you are ordering for.

A little bit of a que however the que went Down quickly. Social distancing worked out good and easy to follow freinldly staff. Table I had sat on had been sanitised. Staff were clearing tables and sanitising once customers had left. The coffee was great.

Staff are really rude here !! Been here so many times in costa Basingstoke festival place it was really disappointing and disgusting service ever specially the guy there never served in a friendly way he is always making faces while serving coffee me and my friend were dissatisfied and disappointed by the service there they really need to hire someone who is customer friendly and give good service to their regular customers as well as others they are really rude zero customer service at all !!! Please hire someone who’s good to their customer many thanks!!!

Great choice of food and drinks. Everyone is safe due to screens and sectioned off areas to wait

Should learn what a pupachino is

Always a good choice of food, and loving the new Coconut & Vanilla Latte!

Friendly staff and great service.

Nice coffee after opticians appointment on way back to my car.

Beautiful created hot chocolate and coffee
