Ordered my summer fav coffee frappe. Was asked if I wanted cream to which I replied 'absolutally'. I took the drink back to my table and started to spoon off the top to savour BUT..it was vile synthetic tasting muck. I then re-queued and spoke with the manager, explainin that I ws offered cream and in Costa Launceston it is always lovely proper cream. He was dismissive saying that the reciped is vegan cream (what???) and that the onky reason Launceston geve me dairy cramwas that I go there regularly. I stated that I have never had a choice there, it was always dairy cream. He jsut stood there staring at me. He only offered a refund or a replacement minus 'Cream' as I walking away saying that I was going to write a review on Trust Pilot !! Never again! He then was clearly berating me to the older woman who served me originally. Launceston Branch here I come.

Enjoyed the swift service and proactive staff who toasted my cajun chicken wrap to perfection. Really tasty. Barista also very quick to administer hot milk for my Americano. The layout is OK, some cosy pockets but tables mostly beside the wall so a fair amount of people pass by. Area at the back smelled a bit as the toilet is very nearby, hence no one on that table. But good for a quick pit stop.

Coffees in Tavistock! Had 3 x Costa coffees in the last fortnight. The young man does a great job, hot, tastes as it should! However, he needs to teach his skills to some of the other staff! Consistency with that sort of product really shouldn't be a problem. Say it how it is me! 🤔😁

My sister and I visited this cafe today and ww were appalled at the antics of one member of staff,this being a dark haired female. This member of staff constantly had her fingers on her mouth in her hair and on her face,she then went on to serve customers without washing her hands.What has happened to food safety hygiene rules,we won’t be coming in again.

I wish there was other coffee shops to go to because Jesus Christ! Shop so dirty I wanted to leave the second I got to the door hadn’t even walked through the door and I could sense the laziness. Walked in every table piled up like mountains with trays of dirty cups and plates THREE baristas behind the counter but ZERO doing anything productive! YOU DO THE MATHS I ask for a drink that they cannot make yet I have had it countless times with ease and no trouble not once in drakes circus costa I love it it’s the best Costa this one is shocking only one member of staff actually helping and tiding up after plenty of time with nothing to do there was also staff with incorrect uniform on and messy hair The surfaces behind the counter are vile so dirty the coffee machine always ALWAYS looks like it’s been begging to be cleaned for months. It’s hot and not a nice experience to be in here at all All staff always moody and rude and unhelpful every time I really hate coming in here

Ask for a drink and was told they didn’t want to make as they were closing in 40 mins it was a takeaway drink as well was told this by a moody young lady who didn’t smile once and whenever I visit I am usually ignored or served terrible coffee and I’ve just come to expect bad service or terrible incorrectly made beverages!! Getting pretty sick of this at this point wouldnt reccomend this Costa branch it hasn’t been the same since about 2017 or 2018!!!!!!! I love the people and the drinks in plymouth costas so lovely every time and they put up with so much more bother from Customers still but manage to remain polite and so so friendly all the time! Don’t bother going to this one support a small business instead so they don’t all shut!!!!

Now when you pay a visit to Costa Coffee the Coffee itself is fairly uniform……..very tasty and hot.

Probably the only thing missing was an old log fire and mine host. Well worth a visit if in the Town.

Ony a disgraceful 2 edible products here, actually don't have added sugar, Also 2 of the smoothies are free from this toxic substance. Everything else has added sugar. Coffee is very good quality italian coffee. Staff always very well trained. They do try and Forse their religious views on their customers especially in December, by not giving the option of a non religious cup. Very poor dairy, gluten or vegan, for food, but there certainly are milk alternatives available, so there are drinks for everyone, but very poor food.

It sells coffee and all that, I only go in there because my Mrs likes going in. I went the other day with the wife and kids, and much to my dismay the outdoor seating open... which then meant my wife wanted to stay and drink our coffees in the wind, with my two boys going ape and disrupting everyone else's peace. As it turns out, it was windy as a mother trucker, so everyone was more concerned with holding on to their paper cups than being disrupted by my boys and their interesting table manners. I'm sure I'll be dragged along again at some point.

Reduced seating. Went in for a light lunch. I was told to sit next to a toilet. costa don’t put lobbies between the toilet and the dining area. This means as you leave the toilet you and your odours and aerosols leave the toilet with you. Disgusting and I don’t want to sit next to a toilet. I asked to move and was told there was only seating for 4 available so asked to sit there. Got a frosty reception from staff member at this request . She then sat us in proximity to the gents toilet. Why Costa feel it necessary to put toilets opening directly into restaurant seating areas is beyond me. It’s unnecessary and I won’t be visiting this costa again. Apart from frosty face, the rest was as to be expected. I will support local cafes next time I go to Tavistock for lunch. costa don’t know how to look after the local customers evidently. Really interesting the effort that restaurants go to to clean and disinfect. This is something they should always have done . It is called good hygiene. Interesting that they are all hell bent on being seen to do it to control COVID. What about their responsibility to control bacteria for all the other years they have traded.

Ordered a jasmine tea and paid. Sat down and realised I had the wrong tea so my partner went up to swap it and was informed they no longer sell it and to ignore the board. They didn't offer a refund or apology, just took money for something they didn't sell and never said anything about it. A bit shameful because it's such a small thing but really dishonest.

Young girl rolling her eyes after I requested soy milk. If she doesn't understand basic customer service, I suggest she go into another line of work. The others weren't any better. Service with no smiles and no interactions with their customers whatsoever. Management need to train them up to the usual coffee franchise standard. Only this branch of Costa has this issue and that's comparing to other outlets as well as abroad.

Generally Costa Coffee branches are good but this one is very poor by comparison with others I have tried. After ordering I waited a good ten minutes for my coffee, after which I asked my server where it was, they had completely forgotten my order. A very bland and lifeless latte was hurriedly concocted, it would have been nicer perhaps if it was actually hot but sadly it wasn't. The dirty floor and sticky tables weren't very inviting either. Fortunately there are other far superior coffee establishments in Tavistock so I won't be visiting this one again.

It's a Costa - nothing to rave about unless you are desperate for your (average) coffee hit or overpriced 3 week old cake that is mass produced. That said if you go out the back and sit outside there is a lovely garden and you can hear the water from a large stream going by. So if you need a 20minute break and want a lovely setting - its not too bad.

We recently visited the Mary Tavy Inn with my parents to celebrate their 65th Wedding Anniversary. The food was great, the service was excellent. There was an anniversary card waiting for my parents on the table when we arrived which was a nice touch. The waitress was really friendly and took photos of us all together. My mum and I have coeliac disease and it was a real pleasure to have so many gluten free choices on the menu.

Highly recommend this traditional family run pub. The Landlady is the hardest working person I have ever met and always with a smile on her face. She made us so welcome as did the locals. Lots of locals (good sign) and excellent menu. Not too fussy - just good traditional pub food. I had the sausages & mash with onion gravy with freshly cooked vegetables. Great desserts. We stayed overnight on a Devon Coast to Coast bike ride. My room in the main building was clean, fresh sheets and a bath!!! Essential on a bike riding trip! Views from the pub are stunning when the sun is shining. There is a caravan park out the back. There is cottage accommodation as well which is basic. I encourage you to visit and support them.
