Costa Coffee in Milton Keynes

Costa : am I surprised? Never been lucky on any of them, so far. Burnt toasted tea cake. Was charged for two coffees; had to go and queue AGAIN for refund. Loads of dirty trays on tables. Staff friendly enough, however, Costa might take care of some additional training. Atmosphere, well that is difficult to assess. Right next to main hospital reception - unpredictable.

Great coffee and staff friendly.

It's dirty! It's even more surprising that this point is in a hospital. Apparently this is the English standard.

Great latte & delicious lemon muffin enjoyed both

Absolute shambles. More interested in the times they work.. decided to melt ice early because they are shutting in 30 mins.. not sure if it’s a franchise or not but they should be ashamed of the people they employ.

Zero gluten free options, long queues and the drinks in the fridge are warm. Costa do better.

Costa's at Milton Keynes University hospital is a great place to take a refreshment and food break in the busy out patients area of the hospital. A nice place to get away from the hospital routines of patients coming and going to various departments within the hospital. Costa's staff are friendly and the coffees and teas are a welcome to those who want a rest or are waiting for their appointments. During the weekdays it gets at times very busy, but after 5pm it tends to get a quieter feel until 8pm when Costa's closes for the day. They sell food such as sandwiches and cakes and bottles of soft drinks. They sell toasted sandwiches too that can be heated for you to enjoy. It can get busy in the mornings and around lunchtime with queues ordering and waiting for drinks or hot food.

This has to be the worst Costa in MK. The lady that works on the till here is SO loud. You can be on the far side of the cafe and still hear every word she says, and she is quite abrupt too. Makes for an unpleasant atmosphere in a hospital.

Very good Costa, always pretty busy but the staff are very helpful and friendly.

Costa coffee ☕️ makes me feel good and positive! 👍 😌 It's something really magical about sitting down "in your own company" 😉 and having a moment to yourself. Costa experience is priceless, obviously if not "crazy" busy😉 Love yourself!🥰

Well it's at MK hospital. But it's clean and quick. With nice snacks. So it's good

The young lady had a piping hot caramel latte ready and waiting ..

Full Costa store in busy hospital. Excellent.

Low quality food for a extortionist price, £5.80 for a pre-made simple sandwhich. No discount to nhs or blue light staff. Can get a full breakfast in a local cafe for that. Save your money or support the local businesses.

The lady taking the orders is a proper character, made me smile 😃

The issue with the place is that the upper management aka COMPASS GROUP have no interest in fixing anything or providing the right amount of staff, it's all about profit from what I've seen. The staff become very stressed and overwhelmed by the workload and end up leaving as a result. Only to be replaced by untrained workers who need training all over again.

Good atmosphere. Service was very good, polite, happy, friendly staff. Clean and plenty of space to sit at. Coffee was hot, muffins were delicious.

Went in for a coffee was greeted by a very abrupt rude small lady, think her name was Chris, a bit of customer service training may go a long way here

Nice and cozy. Light and soothing ambience keeps you calm and enjoy food and conversation.

Great service great coffee and sandwiches really good atmosphere after attending outpatient appointment

Clean and tidy shop. Food and drinks consistently good as always. Friendly staff

Little idea how to interact with customers

Dreadful experience after they took my money they informed me sitting area closing immediately despite not closing time. Staff not the least bit bothered that it would be proper customer service to let customers know prior to taking there money

Nice Costa, good drinks and food, very polite staff.

Staff excellent food /coffee very good selection

Considering this is inside a hospital it's really nice. The staff definitely make the atmosphere here, they are all helpful and seem to enjoy being there. A very friendly place to be.

Great coffee and a pleasant atmosphere.

Dreadful “customer service”. Staff seem so disorganised and have no manners or ability to interact with customers. They spend most of the time caterwauling among themselves about the inane details of their lives. The fridge is rarely stocked up with barely any selection of items to choose from compared other Costa coffee shops. Takes an inordinate amount of time to get a simple coffee. Horrible place to have to come to but limited options at MK hospital as a regular outpatient.

Looked after well by the staff.

Was closing after we got there because of no staff. No customer service skills at all. And pricey

Worst costa! When you got 2 kids serving without any idea who to make the hot drinks!

Cakes were not as fresh as other costa places, tasted as if they over stayed and got dry. Was disappointed with the cakes. Other than that happy with the cleanliness.

Food was ok, coffee was ok. Staff were lovely. It's a chain coffee shop.

Typical Costa, good drinks and food, polite staff. Only let down by the confusion on opening hours, one search says they close at 4pm, another says 7.30pm, but the sign on the entrance to the coffee shop says 6pm. They put all the seats on the tables at 4.30pm, so that customers have no where to sit after purchasing their food and drinks.

Good drinks and service but sometimes inconsistent food availability and opening hours seem to change quite a lot.

The food was good. Pigs in blankets panini was really nice. Coffee was also good but not very warm by the time I got home. Service was great, friendly helpful staff at the hospital one. A bit pricey.

Nice little Cost located conveniently within the hospital, the flat white I had was made perfectly 🙂

Floors are dirty, tables hardly ever clean, woman at the till is so loud and rude that she overwhelms the atmosphere of the place... The audiology department is around the corner. Go and get them tested as your deafening your colleagues and the customers.

A nice clean cafe with friendly staff.

A popular Costa in the hospital. Shame it keeps closing at 3pm right as ita visiting hours due to lack of staff .

So I popped in on of chance . A lady and daughter was in there it wasn’t that busy how’s o noticed the daughter was having a seizure, I got help with a nurse cleared tables of hot drinks and put the girl on floor finally first response took a while whilst I stayed with mum and daughter . I was disappointing that none of the staff who worked there did not help in fact I cleaned all drinks moved chairs as the mum was very upset . Another nurse came and helped . I just feel that the was all going on they could have made some sort of deal from this instead of just watching . I hope the girl is now safe xx

Had coffee and cinnamon bun, couldn't eat the bun was so dry, don't know how old it was. Threw it away

Great to have this in the hospital, so you can gather your thoughts if you need to or just for some sustenance whilst your waiting. Only 4 stars as choice was limited, no croissants at 1030 in the morning😬 Otherwise helpful and friendly staff.

Costa where it's needed most...

Thank God for this Costa after living in the hospital for a few weeks because of my dad this was my little retreat.

Slow service , and pricey . £7.80 it cost for 2 small hot chocolates .

Went in for coffee after an appointment. Coffee was fine, but tables not cleared or cleaned after customers had left. We found an empty table & cleaned it ourselved of cake debris. Plus one group of 3 were extremely noisy & it drove us out.

I love this shop it has amazing drinks amazing cakes and items would recommend this shop is amazing!

A welcome break while at hospital Cup of coffee and a sausage bap

It was coffee what else to you expect from Costa!

Had a coffee here while waiting for my partner to have treatment in the eye clinic. Coffee was free as I used my points! Lovely cappuccino as usual

The coffee shop is very clean the staff are friendly and helpful

All good, quite quick despite a full queue. Clean and tables cleared.

Great place to have at the hospital. Lovely staff

It's Costa so you always get a good coffee. It loses a star for having the tiniest menus behind the counter, so if you don't have 20/20 vision you have to know what you want in advance

Nice relaxing atmosphere staff very friendly

Supposed to close at 6 but got kicked out 5 minutes before when trying to pay for a sandwich which would have taken 1 minute to pay for. Very rude, not a nice thing staying without dinner when going through family emergency, specially when they were still within working hours

Really nice coffee, I had one of the specials. The only thing is a bit pricey

Lovely people great service would like to add I could not find my card to pay so they let me eat and wait for some one bring my money Thank you so very much

Great coffee shop with lots of different drinks to cater for all tastes.

Excellent service. Very friendly staff.

Lovely coffee, not overcrowded and efficient.

Great hot chocolates (order 4x) which were loved by all. The staff were very polite and friendly, with a sunny smile that could cheer up any ones day 😊

Lovely setting in a hospital and friendly staff and other customers.

Every single lady working in this costa really are friendly and kind! I have been in hospital a month and use costa daily their kindness helps me get through each day.

Chloe was amazing. I really enjoyed my Mac and cheese pasta along with Chai Latte.

Costa coffe inside the hospital, you can have a coffee while waiting for anything

It has what you say and refreshing and good coffee and if you want something sweet you find Costa coffee

Standard Costa however can be very loud and hard to find a table. Wait times aren't great but there is little choice around.

A good location for hospital visits nice warm surroundings service was a bit slow when I was there but I have had worse

Nice little coffee shop within the Milton Keynes hospital

Brilliant service & fast service. Also do the best millionaire shortbread in the world :D

Celebrate coffee cup is a nice latte coffee really nice

Nice place to relax , yet though because is within the hospital grounds tends to be noisy. Nice sandwiches and decaff latte .

Love there mango & passionfruit cooler so tasty well worth the money

Lovely fresh and clean environment with friendly and helpful staff

You can rely on Costa for a good coffee and cake

It's in mk hospital so handy for a drink.

Well distanced tables, dine in allowed

Not enough done to clear seating. To many people hanging waiting for nothing... nothing being eaten or drank.

Inside Milton Keynes Hospital very expensive £2.10 For a standard coffee, £1.99 for a bottle of Cokec. Total rip off

MKUH, Coffee while waiting for wife to have CT Scan coffe good, banana 40pence no comment

Thank you for serving good quality coffees, hot beverages, cakes & snacks.

As much as I like the coffee and snacks I can get the same quality much cheaper elsewhere

Nice and clean but really expensive!

Cant stand the place and the staff are rude, Was not there so why ask me what it was like ???????

Service was good. Well organised. A few seats available to sit in if you wish too.

Lovely staff, great selection of food and a friendly service.

Friendly staff and good products, really does what you expect it to do

Great coffee after an x-ray. Nice surprise

Friendly staff, good service behind the counter. I sat in for over 30mins didn't see any member of staff wipe the tables down. I asked if the tables were clean staff said yes, went to sit down I noticed paper on the table it was obviously not wiped, therefore I was mislead! Disappointing considering Covid is still here!!

Only coffee shy open to sit in at the moment. Slow service

Friendly staff. Safety measures in place.

Great staff, as clean as possible

Convenient drive thru; not the quickest but worth it! 5 stars for the half price offer on food!

Really organised and friendly staff, good job girls, keep it up 👍

Staff member was a bit abrupt but it's cool

Go to greggs the same crosant you will buy from Costa is 85 p in greggs!

Never had a good coffee in here!

Good customer service with adequate measures in place for Covid.
