Costa Coffee in Hillingdon

One word. Slow! Huge lines and slow service. They need to ramp up the number of staff at an airport location.

Here with a 13 hour layover at terminal 5 all the restaurants closed to take a cab to a nearby Cafe is nearly 50 us dollars so here we wait drinking coffee and coco wait for breakfast at the terminal restaurants which open around 5 and 6 am

Nice whilst waiting. Poor employees seem to be soo extremely stressed. 😕

Terrible coffee, barista that made my flat white had two attempts to make my order with it still coming out as some milky latte style coffee. Horrid

Nice taste. But there is need to be update atmosphere according to weather. Thanks

Very careless and rude staff member overnight: the young lady hit my foot passing by with her trolley, never apologised, later hit my elbow with her trolley, never even noticed! Wow!

Where do you find the useful idiots you employ at this location who while having 4 tills tell customers that they must line in two ques. There is no sign but very rude sales staff which does what ever the hell they want. Had to go to Nero to get a coffee without nuts heads talking some nonsense.

Opens at 04:30am. Life saver! Friendly staff.

The employees who check the back bags work very slowly, and the customer service has bad behavior and so road.

Great coffee and good choice of foods. Open 24 hours

Worst ham & cheese toastie ever. Dry and tasteless. Give this place a miss!

Worst cortado I ever had, they remade it and got second one even worse than the last one.

There were flies in the food display cabinet, the Asian staff who was serving me was unfriendly and impatient even when there was no que, I was tired from my flight and needed a coffee but I wasn't sure about the cup sizes and he wasn't happy when I asked him to show me the difference. 27 Aug 2023, evening.

Dirtiest airport cafe I have ever seen (in the world)! I saw many little flies walking, wandering or playing🤢🤮 on their cake. Coffee is ok and service is great. But you can run a cafe like this!

My waiter was Francesco, who was super friendly and kind.

ABSOLUTELY THE WORST COSTA PLACE IN THE WORLD. ORDERED LARGE LATTE EXTRA SHOOT AND GIVE ME LATTE AND CAKE 😡🤷🏻‍♂️ 15MIN LATER NOTHING!!!!! IF YOU CAN'T WORK OUT HOW TO SERVE CUSTOMER DON'T DO IT!!!!!

Friendly service and quick preparation of our order! All smiles from the staff ☺️

Slow, rude service and the worst coffee I have had in the UK.

Lo mejor el chocolate caliente con nubes.

Really nice, lots of space and if you get tea to have in they serve you a pot of tea. There’s a view of the fountains outside from some tables as well.

It’s just like any other. Enjoyed the drink and food, then I looked up at the prep area and all over you see dust dangling off the beams over the counters. How are they getting away with that.

This cafe is a disgrace . Terrible example to anyone arriving or leaving the UK

The nearest coffee outlet to the international arrivals exit at Terminal 5, so it is very busy, but you can usually find a seat as the turnover is high. Costa has the best coffee, in my opinion, plus their food is better than most other similar outlets. Try the Muffins they are a highlight for me!

Seats are totally disgusting and costs more then a Starbucks as in airport. What a disgrace, welcome to the UK.

Tables and chairs are disgusting and embarrassing way to greet foreigners and welcome back family. Shame on you Costa and Heathrow Airport for allowing such low standards.

Slowest Costa ever. No sense of urgency, given this is an airport that's not customer oriented

A rather deflating experience by staff that were uncommitted to their roles. Multiple communication issues, team members who placed social distraction above customer service, failure to appreciate people in the queue are time limited due to the airport environment. Alas our order was both incomplete and wrong, Costa seems to be fine outside of Heathrow but they appear to have hired the first person that came through the door rather than the best person. Sorry to say but that’s the reality.

It’s Costa coffee, so you know what you are getting. Only reason for the 5 stars is the extremely cheerful and friendly member of staff who helped us. She brightened a pretty full and very early morning!

Me and me daughter have just been served by lovely Lukes. All the team seem friendly and helpful

Costa is costa, but u fortunately this is one of the slowest I’ve ever visited, and I can say that as I visit this costa quite often when travelling. If perhaps the staff could reserve a little of the effort they put in to having a laugh with each other and put that in to serving the massive queue it would improve dramatically.

This place is filthy - there was a rat running around!! Costa Heathrow T5

Save your money and spend it somewhere else. Went in and got two coffee and two sandwiches, got billed 70 £. Was sure he said 17, but he was creative and gave no reciept. An e-mail to Costa has not been replied to, so I guess they accept this way og making business. I recommend you spend your money elsewhere.

GREEDY place.. 50 pence for a tiny bit of cream!

Surely the scummiest Costa in the world? Who honestly wants to sit on these seats?

Seats are completely worn to pieces with rotting food and mould inside the seats from spilt drinks. It impossible to clean inside a foam seat so obviously very dirty and unhygienic. Not a good look for visiting coats in the UK at the airport. Definitely an extremely bad advertisement and probably costing the company far more than the cost of new materials.

الطاولات تحتاج تنظيف بعد مغادرة العميل القهوه جميلة لكن ليست الافضل الخدمة بطيئة بعض الشئ والعاملين متعاونين ومحترمين

DISGUSTING SEATS - RIPPED AND STAINED !!! What on earth is COSTA doing ? God knows what kind of impression this must give to overseas visitors to our flagship airport. Really not impressed, they are an embarrassment to Costa and a huge embarrassment to Heathrow. Shame on Costa for not spending money to improve

They should start setting traps for mice. Going inside the cabinets too.

I had US dollars, and I bought 12 pounds worth of stuff I only had 100 US dollars and when the girl at the checkout changed it she gave me back 58 pounds... he charged me 30 dollars just for changing the currency. and when I asked her why the money she kept was so much, she told me that this is how the store does it. unacceptable that they keep so much money for changing the currency

Wir haben uns dort nur 2 Packungen Sandwitch mitgenommen. 2 zum Preis von 1 .. Danke für den Tipp vom Personal Geschmacklich wirklich gut ..

Rat visible . Very dirty place. Such unhygienic conditions at arrival Heathrow terminal 5 is unexpected.

There is a rat running around... Why

Not the quickest service but it’s consistent & convenient - open 24 hours

Great place to have a coffee waiting for a flight but I think they might have a mouse problem.

Ok had a large hot chocolate and millionaires slice whilst waiting for flight arrival at terminal 5

Nice staff, good food but nothing extraordinary

Dirty, run down, mice running around on the floor. This looks like a third world country but perhaps that’s what terminal 5 is these days?!

Always a good place to sit whilst waiting for international arrivals! Fabulous service. Queues can be long depending on time

Costa coffee is pretty reliable with their quality of beverages, cakes and so on, but ... considering the amount of customers they have daily at terminal 5, and the money that is going through the tills, the time for an upgrade is grossly overdue. The seats are ripped and very stained, in fact i didn't dare sit on them in my white trousers. Come on Costa, treat your customers to a pleasant experience. You are the first impression of Britain a lot of travellers have.

How dirty is this place? Sitting here with a cuppa waiting for my husbands flight to arrive. I seem to have lots of company in the form of rodents. I told a member of staff he acknowledged it by thanks for letting me know. I suppose it’s not a big deal.

I had my coffee and I was chilling and all of sudden I saw a mouse running up and down, when a guy sut to the table where the mouse was, I saw it going to the kitchen. Actually there is also a video ,Google Heathrow mouse and you will see what I mean. It's rediculous I asked one of the staf and he said yes I know there is a mouse and he was laughing. How come a coffee shop with a famous branch located in thr airport ignoring this and not taking any measurements?

Agréable avant de prendre l'avion ou en arrivant. Au niveau inférieur

My drink was a expired piece of s. t worst drink got a exchange but it still had the expired dutty sauce in it manky 🤮🤢

Heathrow T5 Costa needs to be shut down seats and tables are filthy

Yesterday I had the worst coffee at this Costa. I like Costa in general and am a regular customer so I know how their latte should look and taste like. What I received was a white americano. When I complained the staff said that this is how latte should be. When I challenged again all they did instead of making a new coffee was removing some coffee and adding a bit of hot milk and froth on top. It was boiling hot, the milk was burnt it was undrinkable. I binned it and left. I also fancied a cinnamon bun for the road but then saw it was full of flies as per picture taken.

Extremely slow. Considering we are in the airport, they should be way faster… very disappointed.

This is a really nice cafe, the coffee is excellent. Unfortunately the Chocolate Twist was as dry as bones.

Absolutely lovely staff at this really important Costa. The staff make it what it is. Unfortunately some of the infrastructure needs refurbishment. With a customer footfall rate as high as this place gets, the management ought to realise the need for constant replacement of the parts of the seating that wear out, get torn, or get coffee dropped on. It's not rocket science. You are letting your staff down.

The experience with the staff was extremely poor. The young man on the team is Ill tempered. That was surprisingly shocking for me since I’ve visited many branches of costa. Appalled to have met with him.

Wait there on a comfy sofa/chair while waiting. Same price as high Street Costa, same high quality coffee.

I'm here now. Frankly this place is so unclean and dirty I cannot understand why its open. The seating is stained and dirty and I had to ask a member of staff to clean one of the filthy ,marked tables. Had I first seen the filthy place I wouldn't have come here I feel very unhappy about this experience. No one would have filthy torn seating at home like this. Shame on You Costa!!

Staff are very friendly and helpful, drinks are standard but dear lord the place needs a spruce up. It looks like they rescued half the furniture from a fire at the local primary school. The other half have stains so ingrained you could conduct Rorschach tests using them. Seems all the money's been spent on the overhead light show which thrilled a nearby child for a few seconds. Come on Costa, let your staff work in a dignified environment.

Need a coffee? The independent coffee house you would usually frequent is an hour away or it’s not open? In Terminal 5 arrivals, where can you get your coffee fix? Costa Coffee, step forwards. I could use this review as a board to put these chain cafes down. I won’t. They serve a purpose. Service isn’t warm and personable. Coffee isn’t bursting with flavour. but at least it is consistent. I’m missing Birmingham’s independent artisan coffee shops already :(

Big spacious and good coffee, also clean and large seating area.

Heathrow T5 ground floor - 4th Oct 13:00 There were two very helpful women and I really appreciate their kindness.

Costa product and food are good as usual, the servers behind the counter were very helpful, the only thing is the state of the seats and tables, they were very dirty and torn, it only takes a visit from the area manager to find out 😱

Asked for iced coffee was given a cup with instead coffee cold milk and about 20 ice cubes floating on the top. Worst coffee ever and over priced I would have taken it back but there were too many people in front of me . Thank you Costa Coffee

Amazing service!!! I had a problem and they were extremely helpful. I'll always buy food from there when I'm in the airport from now on. Thank you for helping me out, some day I'll pass it on. The coffee warmed my heart.

Expected the shop to be open as it says 24h/24, but the employee told me it was closed ( 2h15 am) so I guess it s because of the pandemic but please change the times on the page. Also, I saw a rat running through the place so I probably wouldn't have gotten my coffee there anyway...

Have to wait long to be served as there is less staff

The coffee was creamy and looked well but today the taste was a little bit sour :l

They don't know have to make coffee!!!

A little quiet than usual.. But still good service 👍

I had a long layover and Costa saved me ...fresh baked goods and awesome coffee.

Very busy nearly always a queue but it's the chairs in the seating area, a lot of them are either badly stained or have rips or just grubby , I realise this is nearly a 24hr establishment so they should have plenty of time to clean up

Very poor service, they spent 10 minutes sorting out one couple, service very slow inexpensive staff

Kaffee sehr lecker. Snacks sind frisch.

I really loved it.. anywhere they are. In terminal 5, heathrow, it's in the arrival gate so you can see right away. You can grab water, sandwich and other foods as the fridge are just there and line up for the coffee... amazing service- very fast anf effective because of team work. They have bigger space and wifi free. Tall glass too.

Probably the worste costa i’ve been to. Poor coffee and poor staff.

Ottima catena di bar negli aerei porti di Londra e punto di incontro per taxi privati nell’aereoporto di Gatwich sud

Quick service Friendly staff Vegan 🌱 options, the cookie is delicious 😋 Ordered my usual small soy latte Comfy chairs Charging points Plenty of seating and space for luggage

Leckerer Kaffee und andere Spezialitäten

Great coffee and amazing service, Especially Barista name Jordi ☺️☺️👍🏽

It was 4am but the staff seemed to find it either too much to do, or there was a good reason but they weren't telling me why they couldn't make filter coffee for another hour (I'd already had one at about 2am). All the same, service aside, I was happy that there was something open at Heathrow Terminal 5 landside.

Always a good cup of coffee little bit expensive but worth it

Great place to wait and have a coffee. Service is good and friendly and the coffee is the best

Nice place to spend time while waiting for an arrival

Distinctly Average Coffee, Limited Savory Snacks

One star just because they do soja capuccino... Coffee bitter, no vegan options...

Coffee size is good, but the price!! Geez!!! Are we millionaires? Give the working man a break!!

Café Costa at Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport is great for meeting other people when traveling to London, it is just outside the terminus 5 favoring eye contact. In addition, it has many options on the menu to make a good snack or have a good coffee. The service is cordial and very efficient.

I love a Costa. I think there is also one airside...it was 6am amd I wasnt fully awake. Food and drink quality is standard. Always happy to use Costa. Particularly after a long flight. Recommend the raspberry slice

Coffee addicts paradise... choices .....

Good coffee but probably the slowest service of any Costa I use. Every time I go there (and that's a lot) the staff seem confused about the ordering system and it's just confusion every time. You will get what you want, but be prepared for the wait.

Die einzige Filiale die nachts an diesem Airport geöffnet hat. Alle anderen Geschäfte sind nachts geschlossen. Leider ist diese Filiale im Erdgeschoss wo es unbeheizt ist. Ansonsten kann man dort kostenlos das Smartphone aufladen. Vielleicht kann es eine nützliche Info sein

Great spot to grab coffee before leaving the terminal

They have nicely renovated this Costa

When I told you I was allergic to milk, you should have listened and made sure your equipment was milk free. Making my soya hazelnut flatwhite wasn't hard... Thanks for giving me a night to remember.

café quelconque, croissant caoutchouc sans aucun goût et prix élevé

Poor service and long queues after refab
