Very grubby inside and out. Dirty floors that haven’t been swept for a month (by the looks), had a latte which was like hot milk, no taste of coffee and very pale looking. Paintwork outside looks tired and needs a makeover, very disappointing visit, far nicer coffee shops to go to, needs a good clean, repainting and a good barrister.

I use Costa worldwide, and some are cleaner than others. This one is in a good high st position to watch the Brid world go by, or sit further in, and work, with plenty of light above, on computer or iphone, or chat with friends. Just by the bus stops too!

Apart from the expensive prices, some workers should not be there, one day I left a tip in a jar they had, and the worker, upon hearing the coin and seeing my hand next to her, thought I had stolen some coin from the tip, she confronted me and accused of being a thief, and although the other people who were waiting for his order told him that he had not stolen, but had left a tip, he did not believe me and to top it all off, the next day I went, another of the workers was aware of the problem for days. back he did not return the changes to me as part of collecting what he had supposedly stolen from them. I find it painful and regrettable that I leave a tip and they treat me like this, on top of having cameras and being able to see how they were not right. Leaving aside the actions of those workers and the poor treatment they gave me for being a foreigner, the rest is fine.

Terrible weather meant that we went into Costa to escape the rain. This is a Costa like most others. Had hot chocolate. Was OK but could have been warmer. Short of staff so only serving drinks in throwaway cups rather than crockery. Not so nice, plus very bad for the environment. Mastercard cards accepted.

Not at all impressed. Admittedly, Costa is a lower end chain but this one was especially poor. The coffee tasted bad and the food was awful. The staffers (Saturday afternoon) were disinterested and occupied chattering to one another. Very very unpleasant.

NEED TO UP THEIR GAME! Bridport certainly doesn't lack coffee shops. Great range offering different styles, etc. Costa, however, seem content churning out their stewed bitter blend for top dollar. Across the road in the Ropemakers the coffee is 10x better. This branch lacks any atmosphere and is regularly full of screaming infants. Tuesday seems to be 'bring your child to Costa Day'.

Although staff were pleasant and polite. To be told oat milk doesn't froth😩, is no excuse. Costa used to the best coffee around which area or town you went to, now it's becoming the most expensive and most inconsistent., oat milk needs to shaken to mix each time it's used and not it's just poured straight out😡no wonder it doesn't froth.

Taking the old girl out for a coffee is sometimes no fun as she used to work in the industry so she knows her crema. She used to be involved in importation from some of the finest coffee bean producing regions. This was before the Suez Canal was fully functional so tricky times. However the smiling lady here and acceptance of her moaning won us over. Great froth,great smiles,great small market town and great motability access. Well done Bridport !

I don't mind Costa, but they vary so much. I tend to avoid the one in my home town as it's so messy, but sometimes you have to take what's there. I was driving home from the West Country and needed a coffee and comfort stop. In a small town like Bridport on Easter Monday the choice is limited. I didn't have toime to explore so went to the first open coffee shop I saw. If you frequent Costa you will now exactly what to expect. The formula never changes. Behind the counter where the coffee is made was predictably messy. It nearly always is, but the coffee was fine, and the lemon muffins very agreeable. It did what it needed to do. Coffee and a short rest

Had 2 hot chocolates which were good but pretty expensive for what they are. Was pretty annoying that the wifi was abruptly shut off more than 40 minutes before the cafe closed, and the guy at the counter basically started kicking people out by telling them it was takeaway only even though it was only 4:45pm and the store closed at 5:30pm.. The wifi should be on until the store closes, or at least if you’re going to cut it off then let the customers know beforehand.

The thing with Costa is you know what you're going to get: good coffee, good service and interesting nibbly bits if you feel peckish. This branch is no exception. What is slightly different, which makes it stand out, is the nature of the premises. It's an interesting layout within, especially if you're lucky enough to get one of the big comfy sofas by the windows at the front, where you can indulge yourself in people watching. There's a taxi stand across the road as well as nearby bus stops. A great place to drop anchor after exploring magical Bridport.

Honestly the worst Costa ever! The place is clearly run by poorly trained staff & they always seem understaffed - it seems like there is no proper management in place. Queued for 25 minutes the other day which is ridiculously long for a coffee shop. When I asked for an Iced Latte, I was quickly & bluntly interrupted but the chap serving me and was told “we can’t do iced drinks”. When I questioned why, I was then told “the blender is broken” What a poor excuse?! The last time I checked, you didn’t need a blender to make an iced coffee - it’s simply just shot of coffee and cold milk. If the staff had been trained properly then they’d of known that you do not need a blender to make this drink. This place is in serious need of better management, more staff and A LOT more training!

I've been here a lot, just because it's a Costa really. Like many vistas, I feel this one is a bit grubby. It's always rammed so maybe I'm the only one who feels this.

Since my last review on Costa Coffee, Copper Street, Brewery Square, Dorchester the management has changed. The Store Manager there at the moment isn’t nothing like the last one. She has been late several times wen she is supposed to be there on time, turns up wen she feels like it, relies on other members of staff to do her job for her, cuts staff hours, gets members of staff to train trainees wen she should be doing it. If, she’s not committed to do her job properly, she shouldn’t be the Store Manager. Bring in someone who interacts with the customers, friendly, and invites the customers back. Very disappointed in Costa this time round, the Area Manager should consider the next Store Manager.

Booked the night before, made very welcome on arrival. The selection of food was very good and we did not have long to wait for the meals to arrive which was good as we were very hungry. The meal was first rate and we all enjoyed the food and drinks. Would certainly recommend "The George" if you are visiting West Bay.
