Queued for ages only to be told by staff member who had a bit of attitude that they could only accept cash. Here’s a tip for you…put a sign on the door that says that or tell people who have been queuing for 15 minutes.

Absolutely terrible rude service. Lady wasn’t listening, kept ignoring and interrupting me. Gave me the wrong toastie and made a huge scene in front of everyone saying that I’d taken the wrong toastie when she handed it to me in the first place. and was very rude about it (yelling) how disgraceful, extremely embarrassing being yelled at in front of all of the other customers. asked her 3 times for vanilla in my coffe and kept talking over me and didn’t end up with vanilla afterwards. Certain member of staff needs to be retrained immediately. Need to rethink certain staff members definitely. never coming back.

Visited today, coffee wasn’t made very well coffee and hot chocolates super watery, stock was low and it was first thing in the morning no breakfast sandwiches out or pastries. I was offered marshmallows for the kids hot chocolates and they were completely gone only good for the bin pictured below. Never had a service like this in any costed around surrounding areas

The staff are lovely, the coffee excellent, BUT the place needs to be cleaned properly and cleaned regularly. The woodwork looked as if its never been polished and the floors were filthy. A let down when you're spending hard earned good money.

Driving out of Llanelli early morning, stopped off at the Costa Coffee in Parc Pemberton Retail Park for a takeaway Cafe Latte. Lots of free parking (even though we were only there for 5 minutes or so), with no traffic issues - (well it was the morning when Wales were playing Rugby, so that probably had an effect), getting into / out of the site. Everything you'd expect from a Costa Coffee. Bright friendly service.

A pleasant and airy costa located close to a variety of shops and ample free parking at the Pemberton retail park. This Costa sells the usual branded fare but with a smile and a warm and friendly service. An ideal pitstop during a day of shopping.

Friendly and welcoming staff, efficiently served coffee and properly steamed milk. Too many baristas make frothy and giant bubbled milk, when the trick is to have smooth milk like white emulsion pain. This coffee was served the proper way and with a smile.

My wife and I popped in at the end of the lunch hour for light refreshments. It was extremely busy so we were expecting a delay. It didn't happen, everything was very efficiently dealt with.

Esto es para Costa con Odeon en Llanelli no te saldría. Normalmente tienen un gran servicio pero hoy! Servido por un joven muy alto con pelo oscuro grueso azul. con una camiseta. Yo hubiera tomado su nombre pero muy grosero como él mantuvo su espalda encendida todo el tiempo me hizo mi latte hablando con la chica. Poner el café en la barra, ni siquiera una sonrisa! Café con leche era tan ligera como una pluma, cuando miré todas espuma no líquido terrible. Director me hicieron una nueva. horrible! Ni siquiera una disculpa.

I called here with friends on a Saturday afternoon. Three of us had tea and one person had a juice. Although the tea is on the expensive side at £2 yo do get more than one cup with the teapot Costa provides. It was relatively quiet for a Saturday and there were plenty of tables to sit at. The tables were clean and staff were friendly. I would call here again when in the area.

Vine aquí para un aperitivo con mi abuela. Bastante tranquilo, aunque era miércoles, y el personal era amable. El café era como se esperaba. La comida fue traído a nuestra mesa, tuve la sandwichera de queso y tomate y era mejor que el de M&S.; Ya que no estaba ocupado, quizás debería haber sido uno de los miembros de mesas de personal liquidación ya que eran numerosas las bandejas y tazas de un empujón en los divisores mesas vacías y pared. Incluyendo todas las mesas de dentro, que van desde mesas y sillas para sofás, también hay un montón de asientos fuera, lo cual es perfecto para el ocasional tiempo soleado en Llanelli no te saldría. En general, el café es siempre maravilloso aquí, la típica cafetería.

I asked for Chai, It was horrible the new staff has obviously not trained properly. She didn't know what colour it should be it was white when she first poured it even though I had asked for it stronger when I stopped her and asked for stronger she grumbled. I then asked for cup to be full at which she replied she wasn't allowed. At which other staff over ruled and filled it. As she poured I saw lumps of chai mix from the bottom in completely not mixed. I tried to swirl it but never got the drink I wanted it was so weak. Horrible and wouldn't go back going to go to cafe Nero or coffee 1

Nice surroundings, if you can get a table. Staff are pleasant and manager is attentive and friendly. However, I don't understand why the coffee always turns out different every time? How can a latte taste so different one day to the next? I thought there was an art to making coffee and being a barista but many, especially here seem so different in the ways they produce the coffee. For exams, a fiat white (according to the website) should have a decent amount of foamed milk on top but this only happens now and again. A latte should also have foam but sometimes it's like water and has a bitter taste. There's just no consistency unfortunately and that puts me off going there so often anymore. If the baristas are all taught to make a certain coffee / drink in a specific way, how is it they don't follow that? Is it just a case of, it's busy, let's get these customers served ASAP?.....

Busy Costa on the day I visited. Luckily I found a corner space next to the window and spent an hour on the iPad whilst sipping a luxury hot chocolate. Now there has to be a skill in producing properly hot chocolate, but unfortunately they have not acquired it here.The "chocolate" was of the sugary powdered variety and was not properly stirred. I once had some proper hot chocolate which consisted of chocolate made on the premises and heated to a liquid. Added to this was boiling hot milk; now that was luxury. I have also had hot chocolate in Spain. It was so thick I used a spoon to eat it.Costa, please make proper hot chocolate.

Very long wait, my coffee and sandwich was fine but my wife's latte was sent back twice due to excessive coffee grounds in the glass.The three ladies working were either not quick enough or understaffed.Tables were uncleared for duration of visit, real shame as we used to use this branch regularly.

My partner and Me stopped off at the Costa Coffee in llanelli to grab a quick bite to takeaway. I had a take away tea and my partner had a christmassy coffee. He lids weren't securely fitted and the thin cups meant the cups were too hot to hold. When we asked for another cup or a sleeve to hold the cups like they provide in Starbucks we were told to grab some serviettes instead. On the way out my partner tripped over the small step on the way out, his piping hot coffee went all over his hand! Branding themselves as the UK ' s most customer friendly company Is far from the truth. They shouldn't be allowed to serve the drinks so hot so unless you're dining in please be advised on the temperature they are serving the drinks with little protection!!

Parking is excellent - right outside the coffee shop. I arrived at 3.55pm on a week day,15 minutes before my friends. The place was nearly empty. The staff were pleasant enough but oh! such slow service that I felt as though I was invisible.Ten minutes wait for a simple cup of coffee with only two customers in front - and no apology - was simply not good enough.When the next friend arrived there was only one customer in front of her but she still waited almost ten minutes. The next two friends to arrive had no queue in front of them but the staff still took more than five minutes to prepare their coffees.We were all laughing at how awfully slow the staff were but it's actually quite a serious management problem.Also the entrance door doesn't shut properly so don't sit near it or you'll freeze to death.'Disappointing' is the word I would use in this instance.Next time I visit Pemberton I shall go back to the coffee shop in Dunelm Mill - almost next door to Costa - where the staff are rather more customer-focused.

I come to Pontarddulais once a year while hubby visits a client and was excited to learn of the new espresso bar here. However, I was shocked at the prices!!! £4 for a latte and £3.90 for a flat white/cappuccino. Yikes! We were recently in Melbourne and Sydney and the most I paid for a latte there was £3, overlooking Sydney harbour. Mostly £2 generally and never had a bad one. Sadly, Coaltown’s flat white was way too strong and I didn’t enjoy 😝. I’ll bring my own next time. Shame, as I like the smell and ambience of a coffee shop.

Bues i i'r caffi yma ychydig o wythnosau yn ol, ar ol ymweld a'r parc gyda fy'n nheulu. Roedd y bwyd wedi cymryd amser hir i fod yn barod ond roedd y bryd yn blasus dros ben. Bydden wedi hoffi i'r staff fod ychydig yn fwy 'welcoming' a roedd y caffi ychydig yn fach ond os yn anwybyddu hyn, fe ges i amser da iawn a bwyd neis hefyd. I went to the cafe a couple of weeks ago after visited the park with my family. the food took longer than expected to arrive but the meal was very delicious. I would have loved for the staff to be a bit more welcoming as the cafe was a little small but if I was to ignore this I had had a lovely time and a lovely meal to go with it.

If you are looking for the perfect Wedding or party venue, look no further. From our first meeting, Jonathan put us at ease and was the perfect Wedding planner. Nothing was too much trouble. The room was beautifully decorated with plenty of space for guests to walk around. The staff were really kind, and nothing was too much trouble. The food was outstanding and perfectly timed. Thank you Jonathan for making our Wedding day so perfect! We wouldn't change a thing. We had so much fun, dancing and laughing the night away.
