Run down, like most Costas these days to be honest; DIrty worn out chairs. The window was filthy, so was not pleasant to look outside. Coffee was bland. Had to clean my own table. There were plates and mugs scattered everywhere for a while until a waitress came around. Was very depressing sitting there so it wasn't long until I left. The only nice thing was that staff was attentive and friendly.

I’m not sure if the delivery guy was the same person who delivered one of my other orders (which was also missing food), but one of the main items were missing again, and, once more, I was still charged. Please fix this because it’s getting tiring.

A great outlet at a very convenient location in Reading town centre. Food and drinks are of good quality and service fast. The female barista at the till was with a clinical attitude - no smile, stern look, and not so welcoming style!

This is a lovely, and big Cafe with plenty of seating both inside and out. There are enough power sockets, so that people such as myself, can do some laptop work. There are plenty of choice of food and drink, however all the food is finger food no meals. The good thing is that Costa will make the drink in your own takeaway mug if requested, as i have done on several visits here. This branch is located three quarters the way up broad street and is a 2 mins walk from the oracle shopping centre and still in the hart of reading town centre

Unfortunately the person serving me used the meat knife to cut my vegetarian food, which I didn't realise until I found ham stuck to it half way through. Was very disappointed as I am strictly vegetarian and felt that I had eaten contaminated food.

I visited before 9am and was surprised at how busy it was. There was a mix of people in the store, some sitting in and others just passing through. There was only 1 person working but he kept up with the orders so no one had to wait long. There is plenty of seating and the toilets at the back of the store are kept clean. This is a well kept Costa with friendly staff in the centre of Reading.

Toilets are disgusting, a common theme for COSTA. Really dislike the fact the people making and serving are responsible for cleaning the toilet. Surely COSTA could have a mobile cleaning team moving from one COSTA to the next in a small area then go back round again?

People actually walked out open-mouthed. The table wasn’t wiped down and another woman went and sat at the diaper table. Never mind c*vid this poor woman has diaper germs all over her coffee. 0 stars

Busy. Staff unattentive. Didn't get the drink I asked for, staff simply not listening to customers or each other. On this occasion they lacked leadership, and direction. Lots of dirty crockery building up on tables where people wanted to sit, so made piles on the tabled in order to sit down and use the tables. There are better stores of Costa, butter Market and the station are far superior branches.

As I sit here eating my stone cold food I wonder why I bothered. 1st the order tracker is nonsense. It still says my food is cooking and I’m sat at home having eaten what I could. 2nd I collected my food. I’m glad I didn’t wait for the tracker as my food was stone cold when I got it home and I live 2 minutes away. 3rd I counted 6 staff members in there yet it took them almost 50 minutes to cook a burger. Really this just any chicken joint just like the 20 others on that street.

I hadn't been here for a long time and since it was on my way, we sat down for a coffee break. Our order was a total of 3 items, a brownie and two coffees and two waiters brought them all. Even so, the coffee plate was dirty when it was brought and the waiter served it without caring about it and left the table. It was sad to spend money that we didn't earn easily to get such service.
