Costa Coffee in North Dorset - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

No idea how this chain is still in business. Apparently a frap is a lukewarm watery drink with some cream on top - for a fiver!

not going again..compared to the other costa’s this one is the worse. staff aren’t kind either

Quiet and relaxing coffee with a cornflake cake as an Easter treat 😁

Flatwithe the best coffee in the world. I recommend

I'm a regular at this, my local Costa. Staff are excellent. The gals are friendly and professional - most importantly they know how to make lovely coffee. Problems - not because of the store's staff :- sometimes deliveries to the store are not in schedule 🤦leading to low stocks of cakes, sandwiches etc .... Some comments have noted *dirty tables* whatever. Sometimes the 2 on duty (occasionally even 1) can be overwhelmed for a few minutes with customers. However ask them to clear/clean your table and it will be done ASAP. Plus as soon as the short rush is over normal cleaning etc is done. The store and toilet ARE wheelchair (accessable).

Nice place clean and well laid out .Staff nice friendly and helpful ex choice of snocks and hot food .There is a rest room as well .

Really polite servers, exemplary service. I had a very well made coffee ☕ which i enjoyed very much 😁

Amazing service, Emily is an absolute star 🌟 you need more staff like her - efficient, knowledgeable, helpful & extremely polite 😊

Despite being the first customers of the day we did not even get a ‘good morning’ greeting. I prompted one by saying it myself. Upon first appearance waiting for the shutters to rise, the outside area was filthy. Unswept with dirt and leaves. Every table had its ashtrays full of butts and ash. When we got inside the workstation was covered with coffee grains and mess. A terrible mess.

I was really disappointed at Costa in Gillingham, I ordered a vanilla, hazelnut latte and was questioned if I actually wanted both these syrups in one latte, Yes I do! We ordered some lemon cake, which was very dry, when we spoke to the girls behind the counter they told us that lemon cake should be dry and dense, no it shouldn't.

Seems to be a new turn over in staff, this has made for a real pleasant Costa so sit and enjoy coffee. Staff always friendly and the place is always clean and tidy.

Called in to kill some time prior to a meeting, the place was nice & clean, the armchairs were a bit low down, actually pretty uncomfortable so I moved to a conventional chair and table. Two extremely pleasant, happy and friendly ladies working behind the counter, it’s the staff that make a place. Good experience. Recommend.

Excellent coconut latte, Friendly staff.

Drove here from football pitches 10 minutes away. Got myself a cappuccino and was looking forward to drinking it in the cold on the sidelines. Half way Back it lept out my hands into the footwell without even a sip being had. Nothing to do with the Costa but felt that everyone should know about my horrific experience. Coffee smelled great though, and my wife enjoyed her hot chocolate immensely, and with a bit of a wry grin. Good atmosphere in the shop, very busy but the staff kept their nerve and were very polite.

Coffee great, but tables and floor needed cleaning

Le café est délicieux et il y a plusieurs options de collations tel que gâteaux, viennoiserie, gruau, etc.

Great service, food is always good 10 outta 10 on a bad day

Just love this relaxed, efficient friendly store..the food and drink is very good aswell !

I'm wondering why our Costa in Gillingham dorset is closing by 3.30pm... its been closing so early and I'm very disappointed as its so close to Christmas. You would think it would be open slightly later so close to Christmas 🎄. Disappointed 😞 😥

Usual Costa, somewhat over priced.

Coffee good, needs more staff and use the extra hands to tidy up

There was nothing gluten free for me to eat when i took my son in for lunch😔 The interior is looking a bit tired now and out table was very wobbly!

Really friendly staff, helpful yet efficient. Clean & tidy store / toilets

Coffee was nice, service could do with being a bit more friendlier, other than that okay.

Really decent, very clean and tidy, excellent service. The lady had worked through her break to serve a string of customers. A credit to the chain and Gillingham Town. Will come again. Decent

Been only 4 times and young lady remembered my order. Good service.

Don’t know why they bother opening! The hours are are a lot shorter, has hardly any food on display and now they’ve run out of chocolate powder!! A very disorganised place, maybe if staff kept their phones out the back they’d get more done, one lady was literally being paid to text!

Coffee was ok, good selection, staff were polite

Visiting the Christmas market today , my wife and I decided to visit Costa and being as we had the dog with us we sat outside. There is no other comment that can be made about the exterior sitting area but “filthy with smelly cigarette ends littering the floor, tables dirty with smelly dirty ashtrays , wet leaves , obviously the area had not been cleaned in days. This has put us off ever visiting Costa Gillingham ever again.

Great having this in our town. Such a friendly team of staff members. Can't wait to try the Christmas hot chocolates.

Nice and friendly with great service

Delicious chai latte, taken outside. Sadly spoiled by unwiped tables overflowing ashtrays and litter bins.

Dirty, morbid. Low class. A very depressing place, dark and dismal, awful place

A great little costa coffee shop

Standard Costa, good coffee. Plenty of seating.

Lovely and relaxed atmosphere. So good to be able to sit inside and enjoy a coffee .

Staff are lovely, cheerful and very helpful. Location is good and cozy

Curt staff (it was late in the day) but willing to help with the requested items

Clean and quiet Friendly barrista

the service is at a very high level and all precautions have been taken against infecting people.

Great coffee, spaced out seating. Friendly staff

Lovely staff member who served us. Very clean and welcoming.

Friendly staff. Small seating area inside and out front.

It's always good experience with this place

Friendly staff,great atmosphere and the coffee and cakes are so good!

always loads teenagers outside no matter the time. shouldnt they be in school

Amazing staff, the tall woman who works there on the till today is always a delight to see her, she has a fantastic bottom!

I like their coffee, staff helpful & friendly...also like their bacon & brie panini!

Had a Christmas spice cappuccino which was lovely.

I tried the Irish velvet hot chocolate, loved it.

Good hot chocolate nice place to catch up with friends

A little expensive but on for a treat. Lovely coffee

I'm not sure where Gillingham would be without its Costa. The staff are friendly and the service excellent. And of course the coffee is consistently good!

Clean place, friendly staff, great coffee!

a great coffee shop and the staff are so friendly and helpful. Please change your no dog policy so we can come inside when it's cold and wet

Usual good service at popular Costa

Lovely coffee and served by friendly staff

Shop quite messy no one clearing tables Complained about coffee as it tasted 'burnt' did get replacement but still not much better

Went in at 5:30 pm Wednesday and the the chick who done my drink dine it 100% perfect. A lot of the times I go in and ask for a wet late and still get a huge head of foam, spending time scooping it out is annoying. But today she did good.

Lovely skinny latte with a caramel shot. Was offered sugar free caramel! Made me almost feel it was healthy😋!

As a Costa coffee lover anyway my wife and I nearly always pay a visit to Costas in Gillingham. Service is good and the staff are very pleasant in such a calm and relaxing atmosphere! Always pay a visit there yourselves and chill out a bit!

Was served by lovely staff who were helpful when I managed to throw my drink all over the counter. Had a nice piece of cake and a nice drink. Prices were a bit expensive and I thought they didn't have a big of a selection as my usual coffee shop.

Każda kawa smakuje tak samo ceny trochę za wysokie z czystością czasem na bakier

Costa is the best!!! They have the perfect coffees, hot chocolates, other hot drinks and a good variety of cold drinks too! Also thats including their own specials when its christmas holidays and also at any random time! Costa also does lovely cakes and snacks and lunch foods which are always the tastiest!

Sorry but always have staff issues?? Always a que, always have to wait. God it's busy before and after school times!!!!!!! Get some young staff to clear tables in busy times, or main service is stopped while table's are cleared and cleaned????

Friendly hardworking staff. Great coffee

Great Costa branch. Plenty of seating. Nice and clesn.

Friendly young staff in the lovely village of Gillingham. Good place for your impromptu office! (Shame it's no longer a British company though...)

I love to pop into this Costa at Gillingham. we spend a lot of time here for a chat together with the Mrs. but the school kids ruin it in the summer as they all sit outside and swipe all the chairs, kids today have no respect tgey sit there and dont purchase anything from costa, its just handy for them as its at the end of the road where there school is situated 😩😩😩

Good friendly staff nice smoking area available and coffee made well.

There are several independent places in town serving better coffee. Never seen the attraction and don't like their coffee much, lacks body and depth.

Lovely relaxing atmosphere and yummy gingerbread muffin delicious 😋

Really friendly and approachable chatty staff all server with great coffee

the toilet needs a dam good clean it does not smell very fresh

Nice place in a great convenient location. Free wifi. Staff are very welcoming and place is kept nice and clean.

Very slow at clearing dirty tables

Only large coffee shop in town centre area of Gillingham, bar Waitrose.

Good service and very friendly staff

We are regular visitors here. Coffee is always great, the cakes are delicious and the staff lovely and friendly. Can't fault it.

Always a nice coffee from here. With the milk always being poured to the top and never made to hot. Great selection of overpriced cakes. Might go get myself a nice latte now.

Very busy and they need more staff. Old coffee cups and litter piled on many tables. Great coffee though so swings and roundabouts.

I visit Costa in Gillingham a lot when I go to see my family, there's a tall blonde barista who makes the best lattes. However the manager, doesn't have the best customer service, she acts like what ever you ask her is a massive inconvenience to her.

A great place to met family and friends in Gillingham. Always good coffee and the staff are great. There is parking near by and a short walk in to town etc

Good place for a morning cup of coffee

Always happy always helpful because I'm a regular they know exactly what I want to drink

Very expensive for not a great Hot Chocolate

As with all Costa cafes you know what to expect and what you are going to have to choose from. I visited to try another of their Christmas seasonal drinks. Well worth it. and if you are not counting the calories the muffins are delicious.

Definitely my favourite local Costa. There's plenty of seating, the staff are always polite and it's a nice atmosphere. One request though - more gluten free savoury products please. There's only so many brownies you can eat :)

Good service, good coffee, nice food, friendly staff!

We love our daily visit.... Louise is especially good very friendly and helpful

Ok, just not what I expected from Costa. As Baristas go, they deserve better training. My expensive coffee could have come from a filter pot. No crema whatsoever. As I'm just passing through I can only surmise the folks here have nothing else for comparison. Not one of my better coffee experiences.

Not the best Costa I have reviewed. I've tasted better filter coffee than the americano I was served, at half the price. Perhaps the machine pressures are not correct! A good demonstration of the effects of no competition. I was served by Chelsie who to her credit, served what she assumed (having been trained) to be a good cup of coffee. The owners/operator (Bournemouth Coffee co.) need to have a good look at what passes for coffee in this establishment. Skinny decaf latte primo, americano primo, 2 bags crisps, 2 innocent strawberry and 2 naked blue machine £16.65. They better hope I don't come to town when I can could present better at 75% cost.

my place of regrouping of thoughts. lovely coffee n snacks

Nice relaxed atmosphere. Friendly staff

Always a good experience. Staff are polite, and cafe is always clean and tidy.

Love my costa love my coffee staff nice espically one the boys and girl im there always goes out of her way make sure its just right and boy for how tidy he keeps the shop keep up good work u work dont go unnoticed

Lovely staff but prone to occasionally getting orders wrong

Great coffee shop, always clean and tidy. Helpful staff.

It's really good because you can get fizzy drinks.

Always polite and helpful. A good social place to sit and unwind wilst enjoying the best coffee around
