Some nice staff, the service is rather slow though and the opening times are extremely unreliable. I’ve come by 3/4 times and it’s been closed early for various reasons.

That’s a huge joke. Almost every day it’s closed earlier so we coming to buy a coffee and we kissing a closed doors. Don’t go there. Is a waste of time 👎🏼

I meet a friend here every couple of weeks after work for a catch up. Tonight while I am waiting to order the lovely lady behind the counter made my usual coffee before I had even placed an order and paid as she saw me in the line waiting. I am a creature of habit and always order the same drink, and she recognised me. Just so delighted this happened, amazing customer service right there!

We used this Costa when shopping at this retail park. The staff are so slow and laborious it's a must go to for us,each time, to see if they can put in a slower performance than the time before. Never in any coffee outlet have I witnessed 4 staff behind a counter be that slow? The adage " pay peanuts,get monkeys" doesn't come close!!

Waited ages in line...... with what looked like slow couldn't be bothered staff on duty to be told they dont have the new white chocolate whipped ice latte coz there machine not working. Like what's the point in advising new stuff if u can't have it ... stupid then then walk out to see other people drinking iced whipped drinks out side like if u couldnt be bother to make it just say .. abit like macdonalds cream machine .

The staff here is the most arrogant and careless staff. They never get the order right, are always too busy talking to each other. This is the 6th time I have ordered a drink from this branch and have asked for NO cream and every single time they ignore the request and add lots of cream. They always talk about you and giggle and work so incredibly slowly I wonder if they have a manager who cares but the service is just appalling. Below standard at best

I’m not one to leave reviews at all but what the hell is up with the slow service down to poor management micro managing one person to a queue of 10 while other mill around in the background. Two times in a row now I’ve been also and have ran out of oat milk. Absolutely piss poor.

Love this costa and don’t like to complain but this morning I just felt so sorry for the poor girl behind the counter. She was left on her own with the queue never less than 7 deep. You could see she was doing everything she could to keep going and this review is nothing to do with her service, if anything she was a 6*. This is to do with the way the place is run and not looking after their staff wellbeing. Please look into this

Went in to sit down for a coffee and a bite to eat … such disappointing service - everything was served as if it was a take away - was expecting our drinks in a proper cup with a plate for the panini and muffin we purchased - not even given a tray to carry purchases on …: not what I expect of a Costa visit!!!

Coffee not filled up, took ages to be served and get the drink. Empty tables, but all empty ones were full of leftover cups. No staff clearing tables or places to put after finishing your drink. Multiple people had to clear other people's stuff just to sit down.

We arrived just after 2pm. There were no panninis, and little choices for cakes and pastries. The only hot food on offer was ham and cheese toasties which were thrown together in a takeaway pouch despite the fact we were dining in. Very disappointed as we had enjoyed previous visits. Half an hour later,all the display shelves were fully re-stocked. Such a pity the staff failed to keep an eye on their stock

I recently visited Costa with my twin baby girls. The service was great and the staff member that served me even offered to bring my drink over for me as she could see I had my hands full. Not long after I finished my drink I was presented with another on the house! It was so thoughtful of her - she remarked that she knew I would be thirsty from feeding my twins. I left feeling refreshed not only from my drinks but from the kindness shown to me and encouragement to breastfeed.

Visited this place yesterday and duty manager was happy to set up a tab to pay at the end as I had client meetings. The next morning went to the counter politely asked if I can do the same, curtly told this was not possible and it should not have been done the day before.... I'm baffled... Popped in to Gregg's next door who were happy to accommodate... Madness

I use this branch every weekday morning, my order is normally around 8 drinks for my staff in the office and now having been in there so many times most of the staff now my order off by heart. Sharlotte and her fellow staff members are always extremely helpful and even when they are so clearly flat out busy we always receive fantastic service and always with a smile and show exactly how teamwork is done. I have used other branch's in Ashford and this is by far the best.

Went in for a refuel, cold out so hot chocolate won. Tried the chocolate orange version, tasted nothing like a chocolate orange. £3.60 wasted but was still hot I suppose. Most of the seating was blocked off so had a choice of 1 table. Staff were friendly and talkative.

As per usual we go to Costa to get our coffee fix. Sunday 6 Nov 2022 @ 15:30. The Toblerone inspired latte was on the menu which comes with cream and sprinkles. We were told the cream was no longer available so I asked if that meant we would get a discount given that we weren't sold the drink as it should be made. We were told that wasn't an option. So just a coffee with some syrup and a mini Toblerone for the full price despite missing ingredients! Most appalling customer service from such a big brand.

Christmas Has Peaked. That's the motto. Not much of a peak on the cream! And far from peak service! SHARLOTTE was rude and condescending and seemed to take pride in the poor quality of the drinks and food she slapped down. Ignored my order and just said "that's all I heard", with half of what I said missing. Coffee grains in the coffee. Rudest Costa in Kent, by far!

I'm not a fan of costalot coffee, so I added one star to this review to account for any bias. I didn't have to wait long. I asked for a large flat white, but they don't do those in large. So I got a large latte at £3.40 Moments later two latte were placed near the serving orifice. It turns out one was mine. I expected them to let me know but maybe they don't do that anymore. I sat at one sticky table, but it wobbled. So I moved to a second sticky and wobbly table. The tables had been cleaned, but it's the one wet wrag and sticky spray. The latte was lava hot. Yes, I burnt my tongue too. Lava hot drinks and wobbly tables, amazing idea. Just mix in a few kids and syrupy creamy drinks too. At the price I expected one of those cheap biscuits, but no. I don't have a loyalty card, but card holders can get a free coffee after spending £27.20 on 8 coffee's. Buy a cup for £15 and that's reduced to 4 coffee's for £13.70. Top tip, buy a cup, in tkmax next door, empty costalot into it, and save pounds! It's nice to see big coffee chains protecting the environment, and entertaining to see hapless people buy the merchandise to reduce running costs and pay additional profit on top. If you really want to help the environment, order to 'eat in' and walk away with the cup. You can always bring it back. Not as good as any of the independent cafes found around Ashford. I'm only in here waiting for my wife who shops as a full-time hobby. I think she would like this cup.

Really good coffee shop. Plenty of seating. Pleasant and helpful staff. I love Costa hot chocolate and especially their festive ones. This year they have an after eight mint hot chocolate and muffin and a Terry's chocolate orange hot chocolate and muffin. The muffins are really good A☆ My only criticism is the hot chocolates need more orange/mint syrup in them, they only have a faint hint of flavour to them.
