Costa Coffee in Charnwood

I ordered a latte that was cold, a hot chocolate that was so dark and strong with powder it was undrinkable. It was a cold day and the air-conditioning was on full bore there were dogs in the Isles staff were miserable. we just left

Great atmosphere very friendly the staff were excellent

Drinks were barely warm, syrup and clumps of chocolate powder at the bottom of the cup that hadn’t been mixed. Tried to charge us for 2 large drinks (drinks had already been made and handed to worker in a medium cup)

5 staff so slow, more attentive to drive through than customer in store. Too much talking

Only go sometimes as it's to expensive, especially the food coffee is always good but it is in general everywhere so will go a lot less small coffee is £4.30 and the food is worse you need a mortgage now for Costa

OK place for a coffee, has gone a little downhill.

Good place to meet up with friends.

We aren't from the area but fancied a drive out and thought we would stop for coffee. Funnily enough, me or my Dad have been to a Costa Drive Thru before but this one is well laid out with free parking for 2 hours. I cannot stress enough the politeness of the two young ladies who served us (25/8/24 14:30). We joked about McDonald's coffee and I was offered marshmallows and cream and chocolate sprinkles! I was over the moon. Thank you to the two servers, your excellent customer service and banter put a smile on both our faces. We will be back soon ☺️

Kayleigh was incredible with her service. She was dealing with a drive-thru order but insisted on assisting me to determine whether my order was vegan friendly. She was very sweet, kind and well spoken despite having a bad experience with a rude customer earlier. Big shout-out to Kayleigh!!!

Efficient staff, coffee and food exactly as you'd expect from a drive thru

Great place for all sorts of food and drinks

We got there an hour before they were meant to close asked for our coffee in cups to sit in the girl who served us said that would be fine but when we went to collect the coffee another girl put the coffee in takeaway cups and made us felt very unwelcome

Rubbish service don’t know what there doing just a load of drips really bring back the old staff there’s new ones are shocking

Really pleasant and helpful staff, always keen to please. Prefer Costa to all others.

The floor feels sticky and the chairs are stained. I hope the owner can improve it.

Friendly staff. Salted caramel frappe was good

Friendly staff, nice coffee and lots of parking places.

I visited this store on Friday 26 April the staff were very helpful and friendly and when I asked if they could bring my coffee to the table they were happy to help as i have to use a walking stick so I could not manage myself definitely will return

Best hot chocolate and chocolate muffin

Staff are always lovely, it is quite a busy place, also has seating outside.

Great visit, Covid precautions in place Track and Trace, Hand Sanitizer, two metre spacing 👍 Served by will great service, entertaining 🤭

Couldn’t see the food hygiene rating anywhere but I’m guessing it’s not great. Generally unclean looking. The queue was really big. It was really cold in there and the loo is fairly grim. Just seems like the workers don’t care. Needs a manager.

Love their cafe late so delicious

Visited this Costa on a Sunday evening near to closing time. The two ladies that served me, Molly and Kitty, were a delight! Some of the best customer service I’ve ever received! They were incredibly friendly and kind and it truly made my day! I will definitely be back for their phenomenal service and the great drinks!

The guys working here on Friday 10th November around 1pm are fantastic. Brilliant customer service, made their jobs look easy and so nice to have people who are so pleasant, friendly and helpful whilst serving customers- thank you 🤩

Was a good place for a coffee, now just a dump! Tables are often left with dirty cups, plates and messy. The floor is filthy, I know they get busy but shocking what it is like sometimes. Agree with the comment about the flys on the cakes, not good when staff have a cold either and breathing over all of them. Took ages for the coffee to be made, then did not taste great but did not want to mention anything, as the staff were not that friendly. Rip off prices now, can buy more cake in Aldi, for the price of a cake slice there. Wish they would open a Starbucks that was handy......, would see a lot of customers leave. Was that cold in there, I wish I had took a woolly hat with me. Not good overhearing staff saying they want to leave, as it is a rubbish place to work, must be why there was no care over making the coffee.

It's a shame I will not be coming here ever again, your staff here are amazing! But unfortunately due to Costa supporting the Israeli occupation i can no longer buy a coffee knowing my money funds the murders of thousands of children!

Nice coffee and cakes ok. Let down by the filthy interior. Sweep the floors..clean tables and clean windows/ doors.

The worst Costa in the area! Always closed earlier because of staff shortage! They should either sort out their staff issue, or change the management and stop hire unreliable people! So annoying and so frustrating as it wasn't the first time and definitely not the last one of closing earlier than their normal opening time.

Didn't ask what size I wanted and just served large drinks and charged for it (quite a sneaky move) Friendly enough staff but when they ran out of cream for my Hazel Maple Latte, they could've opened another can and just didn't. Despite being quite a new cafe, there are stains on seats which isn't very welcoming. A/C was also on full blast on quite a cold and rainy day. We sat in but in hindsight, might've been better off going through the Drive-thru

We waited 5 minutes until someone acknowledged us. Even washing a jar is more important than say hi. We ordered hot chocolate and cake. Hot chocolate was too sweet and cake was very dry. would not recommend to eat cake here. The atmosphere is ok.

Staff are lovely and friendly, coffee is great but whenever I go to Costa I can never ever get anything from the glass drawer because flies are ALWAYS getting all over the food that’s in there. I don’t get why Costa as a whole can’t just put a screen behind the drawer so flies don’t just touch all the food. Really disappointing and quite gross to look at to be honest.

Awful coffee, mostly all milk!!!

Overpriced as per usual and food is reheated frozen rubbish not fresh

Great to pop in for a coffee in the drive through. Helps accessibility by staying in the car and more convenient. No need to get my wheelchair out to enjoy a Costa coffee!

Very expensive compared with other coffee shops

Staff are always pleasant and try hard to please. Cakes and sweet treats are expensive for what you get but save BEANS on the App and get a drink free to help costs. Some seating and cushions could do with a good clean as they are showing stains.

Nice, friendly staff, in a nice, lovely cafe.

Friendly staff, nice interior in restaurant. Chill atmosphere.

Love Costa coffee it's my favourite coffee. They have a good range of toastie type food , and nice cakes. I loved the Christmas range of drinks and treats. It is a little expensive for 2 adults and 2 kids for drinks and food was over £20. I have the loyalty card so do you get a free drink.

This branch has recently improved in comparison to few months ago.

Impeccably clean. Tables cleared really quickly. Engaging staff with a very warm welcome. Definitely will return.

Ambience, cleanliness and efficient staff

Verbally abused by a young woman in the window wow customer service was not amazing coffee the lad made was great 😀👍

Nice place, but at times rather bu

Really friendly staff, great vibe and clean coffee shop.

Always a great cup of coffee. My secret pleasure.

Friendly staff great banter , quality service

First time using costa coffee in Loughborough. The place was busy which is usual for Costa however the food wasn't up to scratch. The toasties was undercooked so bit disappointed considering I paid £4.95 per toastie.

Staff are always friendly. Waiting times are higher than other outlets. If the service is fast my order has been incorrect.

I went in today for 2 hot chocolates and couldn’t believe what I seen 4 members of staff sitting on the floor taking food out of the fridges and putting it on the floor think they were checking dates as the food was on the floor staff were moving it with their feet that is such a health concern as the staff are in and out of the premises I couldn’t believe the manager was telling them what to do I’ve eaten there before and I’m not happy about it I will be reporting it to their head office and will be contacting Health and safety I thought Costa was a great place but sadly it’s not the people who work there should be ashamed of themselves disgusting behaviour how would they think it was ok to do that 😡😡😡

A comfortable place for a coffee and cake.

Lovely atmosphere in this coffee shop, whether coming into the shop or using the drive-thru. Often pop through drive-thru on my way to work All the staff are friendly, and special mention to Arabella - she’s lovely x

Really friendly staff, great atmosphere, comfy chairs, great drink and food, what's not to like!

Really chatty and friendly staff, lovely creamy latte, great having a drive thru close by use here most weeks and always good

Needs a good clean , every table has used cups and rubbish on it , coffee was slow and chocolate was tepid even though asked for extra hot all this and 5 girls busily chatting behind the counter 👍

Excellent service, friendly staff, great coffee.

Great team delivering great coffee. Can't ask for better than that!! 👍

Friendly service. Good coffee. Seems a very popular place.

Service a bit slowish but coffee lovely 🤗 Very surprised that NOTHING is made fresh on site like pastries and croissants.

Coffee cup dirty so requested new clean cup, staff member just rubbed top of cup with fingers - insisted on new cup, reluctantly gave me new cup.

Standard costa coffee breakfast

Nice and clean atmosphere, quite busy on a Friday morning and a bit sluggish to get through the queue if you need to be anywhere but service is friendly.

Jess and Molly are always lovely, have a little laugh with you and always happy to help

Little pricey and the hot chocolate was more like muddy water very little taste don't think will use again

Polite staff, all happy to help, struggle a little when busy but always pleasant

Very good experience. Coffee is wonderful as always. Very clean and welcoming atmosphere. Staff was friendly and working hard. Great location and drive through

had great customer service experience from a lady with long dark hair and really friendly voice in the drive-thru :)

Great service... not impressed by the state of the toilets though.

Friendly welcoming service. Now reopened, drive through opens later than the in-store.

Came in for breakfast, great service provided by Rebecca, made sure we got the breakfast deal even though I hadn’t asked for it 😊

Good coffee better than the machines in the garages etc.

Friendly staff. Nice place to sit and have a coffee and a chat.

Costa coffee...what's more to say! 😁

Lovely staff...always really friendly! Not forgetting fab coffee

Had a great latte today as usual. Lovely friendly staff as well.

Very clean and accessible for disabled. Good and friendly staff!

Good coffee at reasonable price

Very friendly and helpful staff. We had 2 Lattes. Very nice. Only thing to critise was that tables didn't get cleared quick enough, maybe due to lack of staff. Need someone out front keeping tables cleared.

White hot chocolate is delicious

Staff are really friendly. After a long shift on the ambulance I really appreciated the free upgrade to a medium latte despite paying for a small. Thank you very much😊

Great coffee and toasted sarnie!

Great place to get your coffee and baps. Friendly staff, great service. Thanks Costa

Always fantastic friendly staff quality coffee

Typical little Costa coffee joint clean friendly environment lovely staff

Love a good old Costa, Cheerful staff and clean calm atmosphere 👌

Great customer service sat 2 Jan 2022

Convenient cafe on the same retail park with Aldi. Nice walking distance from all of the Grange park estate.

Dirty tables staff showing very little interest

Good Costa. Also got a Greggs and Aldi on the same retail site.

Staff are always friendly, place is always busy but the staff manage to keep up with the quality even with the quick pace of customers. Always very clean and tidy staff are very quick to tidy up and wipe everything down. Kid friendly. Been going here for years with family for a quick coffee and catch up and never had an issue. Keep up the good work guys xx

Drive through is soooooooo slow. Staff are friendly

Good parking nice coffee and the staff seem friendly enough yes pretty good.

Very disappointed on my latest visit- they had no vegan savoury options... paninis, toasties, no bacon bap ect. The coffee is always nice, especially the latte specials (oat and almond options). But very frustrating I can never seem to eat there. They said they hadn't had any deliveries of the vegan options. Also had to queue for quite a while. On weekends it would be good to have more staff when busy.

Lovely staff make you feel very welcome.

Up to their great normal standard

It is what it is popped in for a drink and a rest from the rain on a recent road trip. Not much on the shelves due to lorry driver shortages.

Usual average coffee n food. Staff very friendly n helpful

Very friendly staff, helpful and friendly, coffee good and seating area kept clean,thanks👍

A great Costa right next to a large Aldi. Far enough out of Loughborough for it not to be busy, but not too far that it's a trek to get there. Great service every time, and there's even a drive thru if that appeals to you.
