Dear Sir / Madam, I went into your Costa coffee shop in Welwyn Garden City yesterday. The service i received was unbelievably amazing. Hands down this is the best Costa shop I have visited. Both Emily and Ruby were so customer focused, friendly and so helpful. They both made my experience a delight. You normally get this type of service anywhere. I had to email you to say thanks.

Needs a bit of an update and they need more staff on. There is always a wait, longer than it should be but because 2 staff are trying to run a big shop in peak trading times - they are town centre after all

2 girls worked really hard with an ever expanding clientele. Nobody picking up the dirty stuff all over the place. Yet again I had to clear my own table. This place really does need some help abd a bloody good clean up. Coffee still the best in town otherwise wouldn't bother going here.

A welcome opportunity to rest and refresh halfway through a Saturday ramble through countryside around Welwyn Garden City. Unfortunately, service was a little slow - owing to the branch being woefully understaffed for such a popular cafe. However, those there did their best and a slightly longer pause was also a blessing in the circumstances. The coffee was reinvigorating and fuelled the rest of the ramble.

Costa's nice. The actual drinks are pretty good while queueing or ordering it's unlikely that you won't see the staff openly mock someone. Thought this was the starbucks cliche but it turns out that in Costa you're made to feel pretty bad if you don't know their menu by heart, which by the way, it's often not displayed. Figure that one out.

Tried new vegan ‘ham and cheese’ toastie - tasted absolutely vile so opened up sandwich to find minute amount of ‘ham’ stuck to one side of cheap bread while other side of bread was completely bare. Needed magnifying glass to spot the ‘cheese’, which was actually a couple of dots of bright yellow, glue like substance spotted on one side of the ham, which stuck to mouth like glue too!Absolutely disgusting - nothing like the product used in advertising photos - a complete waste of money.

Visited 23/11/19 afternoon- Extremely rude staff. No customer service at all. I was being rushed into making a choice. Went back to get something else, a different staff served me and received the same poor service. As I was so annoyed, I came back to get the names of the staff from one of the staff cleaning the tables and I was told that staff had badges (of which they don't) and turned her back on me. Three different members of staff that are rude is just extraordinary. Never received such shocking, dismissive, rude attitude from anyone in my whole life. Never ever coming back to this branch. Well deserved of a very bad rating due to very poor customer service from staff. It does not cost much to smile and to be polite.

We are Costa coffee fans and have been going to Welwyn Garden City shop for over ten years up to three times a day sometimes. The manager Peter and his team are fantastic with great service. The new upgrade however is much to be desired. Some chairs are so small I can't sit comfortably especially with the cheap wooden back rest. The previous furniture was much more comfortable. The new counters with food near the checkout look like a school canteen and the rest of the shop design also looks cheap unfortunately. Not sure why it was designed this way. Please restore the ambience of this shop being that it is in one of only two Garden Cities in the UK.

Our cold drinks arrived in smaller sizes than we'd paid for but we didn't have time to wait any longer or sort a refund so we basically gave our money away, the hot drinks were powdery and tasted weak, the staff didnt seem too bothered to be honest, not worth a trip back, Starbucks is close by so next time we'll go there instead

Siento decir esto, pero el café en Costa (espresso) es ahora tan mal que tuve que tomar una foto. Ahora en los últimos 2 años Costa había constantemente y no sólo significa WGC60 pero hoy el café era absolutamente repugnante. Ahora sé que la Costa no tienen una política de marca donde la rutina del café es facturado 3 veces al día, que deben medir 30 ml en 20 segundos para asegurar la toma perfecta, pero me sorprendería si este había sido facturado en días.

This place really needs a visit from the health inspector!Filthy, stained chairs and carpeting, disgusting dirty cups and cutlery (which staff do not like being asked to replace), uncleared, sticky tables, and a general smell of stale food/sour milk, which no doubt explains the flies buzzing round the food.

Stopped in with my daughter for a drink on a hot day. It was what you would expect from a Costa. Drinks were good and brownies delicious. Although on this occasion we had cold drinks and they were served in hot drink cups, although I only knew this because I've had them before. Costa is always a safe bet and you get what you expect. We live in the area and will go back regularly.

I came here with my Mum so we could have a cuppa & a chat before heading home.There was a cue & they were busy, but the staff were prompt, friendly & professional & I didn't have to wait long.While I was cueing, there was a large variety of treats to tempt you, and a fantastic variety at that.I ordered my Mum a small tea, and I had a large hot chocolate & a chocolate muffin (I promise I'm an adult!) I assumed it would be expensive, as I was fishing for another £10 note the lovely lady informed me it came to £6!And not only did my Mums 'small tea' come in a tea pot etc, she had enough for two cups. My hot chocolate was THE BEST I've tasted, and the cream was beautiful. The muffin was an amazing treat. We settled in the corner, and although cosy, the tables were just a tad too close together, we could here eachother conversations.But this is now my perfect place to have a coffee or treat. And it was fantastic to see the staff being so lovely to the children who passed through in there!

This Costa is ideally located in Welwyn Garden City if you are on a days out shopping, with plenty of space to sit. The coffee shop is nice and light and service is reasonable.The main gripe is that the coffee is far from cheap and if you want anything to eat it is an eye watering price.

I'm a regular at Costa Coffee - here on Howardsgate, in Stevenage Old Town and wherever I happen to be in London or elsewhere. The coffee is reliable and the baristas are well-trained to cope with even unusual concoctions.This Costa Coffee tends to be busy most days and, on warm days, you'll always have problems finding a seat outside on the pavement - perhaps just as well as this is where you'll find the smokers! Inside, there are comfortable seating areas, although it does get it a bit noisy sometimes and there aren't always newspapers on the racks. The coffee, however, is always good.

Not all coffee shops in Welwyn Garden have comfy chairs and places for a chat. To be fair, this Costa is 'variable'. It has outside space, a more functional space near the counter - but it does have chairs you can sink into and be private. We come here for that reason. The coffee, as with Costa generally, is 'double-shot' and quite strong. The tables are not always clear. The staff are, however, friendly and courteous. On balance, we choose this WGC shop if we want to talk, rather than just pop in and out.

For a change decided to give Costa Coffee in Welwyn Garden City a try. The “medio” cappuccino was huge, but did not have much taste to it. The Raspberry Ripple Fancy was nice. There was a magazine rack on the wall, but no magazines or newspapers to read. I arrived with a young child asleep in a push chair – for once (as it does not happen often) the cashier said she would bring the drinks and refreshments over to me – thank you so much.Situated at the bottom of Howardsgate Costa Coffee does look across the garden area in one direction and towards the Howard Center in another (Cafe is situated on a corner).All together quite average and typical of a coffee chain – will try and stick with independent cafes in the future.

Another place I'm a regular. Costas Welwyn Garden City is just outside the Howard Centre and a popular haunt with residents and town centre workers. A fair choice of paninis, sandwiches etc and plenty of cakes to choose from. On occasions its popularity means there is a queue out to the door but that's a matter of luck and timing.
