Sadly, I'm starting to find the coffee at Costa overly sweet. Service is a bit robotic, and there's no real atmosphere. The cream on the top of the drinks has been replaced with something called 'light whip', which is mega sweet! I'm really going to have to re-evaluate where I get my coffee from.

My bug bare.... when their heating food they put a couple of things in at the same time...therfore ive had to return to the till point to say its luke warm... this had happened on many occasions and its something that could be rectified with another warmer so more can be done in little time

Couldn't rate food as we only had hot chocolate 😋 which was lusciously scrumptious. Service went without a hitch, and they were very busy. Although they could do with more Gluten Free options in cakes and sandwiches 🥪 to cater for food allergens.

Unfriendly staff, almost rude, not interested in customer service, assumed I was having a take away which I wasn't, when I said I wanted to sit in she told me to do track and trace and show her the confirmation. I have been in many Costas and this was my worst experience, I will never use this coffee shop again. Usually I am completely satisfied with my visits to Costa.

Lovely hot latte, had bacon sausage & egg wrap as no bacon or sausage rolls left 😥, OK but too much wrap. Maureen had cheese & tomato toastie & coke she enjoyed it. I like this costa been few times before ,nice atmosphere and furniture lay out inside and staff always pleasant,only problem I will say is that both Maureen & myself both wear hearing aids and difficult to hear staff talking through their mask, even though I said we wore hearing aids and found it hard to hear them, they didn't speak up ! Though that is a problem in most places, it's harder to hear people's voices clearly with a mask on. Sorry one more point to add ,I have bad asthma but I always wear a shield as I find it hard to breathe through a mask, I have bought a few adaptions to help it stop misting up some better than others and find no problem wearing it as I feel I am protecting other people from my germs and protecting myself from others.i think if you can't wear a mask then you must wear a shield and I think the infection rate would definitely have been lower and less hospital admissions and less deaths ! THE RULE SHOULD HAVE BEEN IF YOU CANT WEAR A MASK YOU MUST WEAR A SHIELD, ANYONE WHO GENUINELY COULDN'T SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PRODUCE EVIDENCE ! PEOPLE MAY NOT KNOW YOU COULD PICK UP AN EXEMPTION TO NOT HAVING TO WEAR A MASK AT TESCO & OTHER ESTABLISHMENTS FOR FREE AND NOT HAVING TO SHOW ANY EVIDENCE OF WHY NOT. I KNOW PEOPLE WHO HAVE DONE THIS AND THERE IS NOT A THING WRONG WITH THEM, SO THEY ARE WALKING ABOUT POSSIBLY SPREADING COVID KILLING PEOPLE OR LEAVING THEM ILL WITH LONG COVID JUST BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT OR CANT BE BOTHERED WEARING A MASK ! MAKES ME ANGRY. IF WEARING A MASK SAVES ONE LIFE ITS WORTH IT.

Didn't have a good experience here. Went to have a cuppa here with my kids for the first time and my daughter found a tiny fly in her babychino. I went over to speak to one of the staff and they said to me: Well, that's not true cos I made the drink myself; it could have crawled from the floor into her cup. I was disappointed in his response to say the least and was too shocked to respond immediately. So when I was about to leave, I went over and said to him that all I wanted from him was to apologise, and it was only at that point, that he apologised. I'm not going back to this store, any time soon but will try other stores.

Necesitando un lugar para sentarse y relajarse un poco, este era el lugar más cercano a donde estaba comprando. El estacionamiento fue un problema, pero finalmente encontró un espacio y entró. El código QR estaba tardando una eternidad en funcionar, por lo que el personal tomó mis datos manualmente para Probar y proteger. ¡No tuve que esperar mucho para conseguir mi café a diferencia de otros justo después de que me sirvieron! El café y el muffin estaban muy sabrosos y los disfruté mientras leía mi libro. El baño estaba impecablemente limpio y el personal limpiaba todo muy bien cuando alguien se fue.

Very bad experience girl with long red hair was very rude and showed no compassion to elderly and disabled customers. In my opinion her training needs in customer care needs to be addressed. I will be contacting head office to discuss this matter further and will not be returning to this store and if this level of customer care is acceptable to your business I can't see Costa surviving.

Very clean and tidy but confusion over the app making it a bit stressful. Large sign with QR code and number at the door which I completed, as I always do, whilst waiting. I was asked by lady behind the counter to prove to her that I had done this and that it should be on my browser. I couldn't find it. She again said she needed proof so I said I would do it again, she said if I had already done it, it would be there. I wish I hadn't bothered going in. Things are stressful enough. Perhaps they should remove the QR sign on the window or have someone advise customers at the door as they do at the Straiton branch. Would have had a 4 star review otherwise.

This particular Costa branch is one of the few Costa's that I find fairly pleasurable to suit and enjoy my coffee. It can be busy at peek time's, although it's directly next to greggs due there's competition on the doorstep . I most enjoy sitting in the outdoor seating where smoking is permitted. There are usually ashtrays on the tables, if not they supply one, just ask inside at the til. I find majority of the times I've been in here the staff have been very friendly and more than helpful. Although I'm by far not a regular customer, I've probably not even visited it 10 times in its existence. So there's been the odd occasion ther staff have been unhelpful or rude, the staff have been different every time for me. The reason I've not visited here more time's is purely due to the location. It is not the most accessible place for me.
