Had a few good cappuccinos of late at different Costas so maybe they've improved the blend and/or I'm getting used to the Soya milk, but the one made today by Amber was the best I've had in years!

The folks working there were very polite and the service was great, it's just that my flat white wasn't great. With that in mind, I came here an hour before close so maybe they were all coffee'd out by the time I got there.

I go to Costa all the time as it is convenient and nice to get out the house with the baby. Sadly, Costa has gone very downhill. The staff are friendly but do not provide the service you need to make a good experience, which you would expect when you are paying high prices. Everytime I have been (not just this Costa), they do not offer to help carry your hot drinks and food to your table, even though I was carrying a baby and lots of bags. Another lady had the same problem trying to get out the door with her pushchair and dropped her drink on the floor. The automatic doors have never worked here. In other coffee shops, they offer to bring the tray to a table, which makes such a difference. The staff forgot one of my items, so then I to get the baby back out the Highchair, carry her over, get the item I had paid that the staff had forgotten and leave my belongings unattended. The cafe was clean and tidy, but there is no air con, so sitting in on a hot summer’s day is uncomfortable. Additionally, they were unable to make ice drinks today. I would recommend that Costa review their customer service and ask employees to help those with young children, prams and mobility issues. However, this isn’t just this Costa.

I usually enjoy a visit to Costa. I nearly left when I heard they were only using takeaway cups. We had coffee and cake but the cakes were in bags so a bit of a mess trying to eat. Apparently the dishwasher was broken. We heard the staff talking about us after they got my drink wrong. And the place was a bit of a mess! Not good!

As every Costa I've ever visited, reluctantly every time, every bit as poor as Starbucks. Too big a chain so lacks personality & warmth, awful coffee blend with yucky after-taste, dirty, staff more interested in who's sleeping with who ( I know who is, 15m away from them!) and frequented by many who wouldn't know a good cup of coffee from tea! Awful experience!

I was there on Saturday morning the 12th of March 2022 And the staff were brilliant 👍 well done to all of them 👏 👍. However I have been there on other occasions and there's a manageress who is there sometimes who has No or very little P.R and needs to be removed as Manageress Or told to change her attitude towards the public. Apart from her the staff are really nice and friendly and kind So I wish that the Head Office of That store would have a word with this Manageress So that things would get better inperticulor The area Manageress called (( Samantha )) who is obviously not reading these posts or totally ignoring them. It's Wednesday the 20th of April and had a really nice coffee ☕ this morning and the Manageress was really nice and friendly So thankyou it was so nice to see a nice friendly store again 😊 Thankyou Mr S Matthews Costa at Channing retail Centre in Eastleigh Hampshire

Really sad to say it was such a bad experience but it was! We had a lovely day out at Go Ape and unfortunately this was totally tainted by the lunch experience. Let's be fair drinks and lunch in Costa should be of an expected corporate standard. The chocolate babyccino was cold, we didn't get asked if we wanted chocolate sprinkles, and no flake- I had to ask for these. The toast ordered I had to ask for twice ( the store had 4 visible staff and were only a quarter full. ) On the second time of asking the toast was made and I waved my number but it got taken to another table- I was ignored. They did not realise this and the person was not honest enough to own up. I then had to alert this and asked for more toast- I also asked for a refund out of courtesy- it wasn't the money it's only £1,60 but the principle. I was reluctantly given a refund and then stood there to wait for the toast. No one acknowledged me and so I asked for my son's toast. I got told 'I had a refund' (by this time everyone was eating their food and mine was cold). I explained that a customer doesn't usually have to ask for goodwill when there are so many errors. The toast was brought to me and Charlie pointed out in a rude and obstreperous way that this wouldn't happen again- "you can't have a refund and the product". I explained the experience and how disappointed I was that she was being so cronfrontational and rude. I came here to round off a nice day and instead felt upset and frustrated at my 'hospitality' experience being ruined. Actually to have received a refund on my whole order would have been a start but still wouldn't have taken away the lost time and bad feelings on what was a special day until that point. Sorry to say that I will never return here. There was only one member of staff who seemed switched on- the rest clearly couldn't be bothered to be there on a sunny day and were taking it out on customers. Hasten to add it wasn't just me who had a similar experience. Really sad indeed :( I wish it hadn't affected the way I feel today but it's put a real downer on the day.... Hope Charlie and get staff read this and reflect on how this made us feel. It might not be much for them but for us it's ruined our family day.

First time using his branch. Walk in and greeted by 7ft high perspex. Can't see the menu through the glare. I order a ICED Latte, they give me a mug of steaming hot latte. Can only imagine they didn't hear my order through the 4cm thick 7ft high perspex. Woman behind counter was a bit arrogant. Didn't even drink it left the full mug and walked out. Wouldn't go back there again.

Seems to be a pattern of bad reviews, you think Costa would look into to this, staff were rude couldn't be bothered attitude I asked for a coconut latte used with a mild coffee at one shot as I was offered previously at the Whiteley store near Fareham in actual fact I was offered the milder coffee when I didn't even ask so when I asked for this at Eastleigh they looked at me as if I was stupid saying they only have one type of coffee, didn't even ask if I wanted the drink with the vitamin added as it is advertised so I went without only when I was charged did I realise they hadn't bothered adding it will not be returning to this store even though it is local, I'll go to cafe Nero instead.

Got screeched at by a staff member called caroline for going in the wrong way, yet the workers go in the wrong way themselves? Also, why have the back door open and a billboard with small greyscale, kind of scrappy signs on it rather than just a clear coloured sign on the door? Who would really think to look down at a small scrappy stand rather than straight ahead at the door? Also rude was how this lady chose to speak to me but then the customers ahead of me halfway through dealing with me, leaving me standing there awkwardly. Any other time I would have left. Think a bit of common sense and courtesy wouldn't go amiss. 11/4/21 - Huge queue of customers so nothing new there. Had about three women serving and a guy with glasses, who walked in through the blocked off-entrance way(!) When it was my turn to order I was left standing there awkwardly for about 10-15 minutes without being acknowledged, whilst the queue just got bigger and bigger, with staff being more concerned over uber eats orders than the customers in front of them. Unsurprisingly, got given the wrong order. Also hate how there's no where to sit outside, leaving you sat on the wall by the main road if you came by foot.

Terrible service, when they brought us coffee the whole cup was sticky and spilled. When I asked to refill the coffee in another cup, the employee simply took it and poured it into another cup! The same thing happened with another drink that I ordered, when I asked to at least wipe the cup, the employee began to be indignant and shout at me, asking 'what else should I do?' Extremely bad service, but the food is good so next time I will come less often

My husband and I booked for lunch, he had The Home run burger and sticky toffee pudding for dessert, and I had the crispy chicken sandwich and apple and berry crumble for dessert. The girls behind the bar were well presented, friendly and cheerful. We ordered our drinks and food together, it arrived in no time at all, it was plated nicely and the food was piping hot and absolutely delicious. The chips and onion rings were hot and crispy, not greasy at all. The desserts were also piping hot, and totally scrumptious. Sheila was our server today, she so warm and welcoming, really friendly but also professional in her approach. A credit to the company. We can’t wait to return.
