When you ask for something to be made, or if there is no items on the shelves an you ask if they have any. There simply rude abrupt and it seems to be a task or challenge in the Alloa store, to make this item up for you, Your always met with a sour face with the two older women,I actually presume one off the older lady’s to be the manager, all I can say, she has some face on it!! She’s absolutely disgustingly rude,she definitely is only there hanging on to retire. But her behaviour is atrocious The atmosphere in the store is dreadful and half past 12 there is no fresh baguettes on the shelf’s so I asked if there could be one made I was simply told no they can not at this time, There no one person in the que, I will be making an offical complaint about the women, next time am in store, I will sure be sure to take note of her name, She has to go

Was given 2 normal sausage rolls, when I asked for vegan ones clearly. Not happy as I don’t eat pork, and haven’t for the last few years. Considering I almost ate it, I’m not happy at all

Greggs might not be troubling the Michelin Guide any time soon, but for cheap, convenient, tasty food they're as good as anyone else. Go there for breakfast and coffee on my days off. £2.35 for a breakfast roll and coffee is as cheap as you're going to get and it's always hot and tasty. Staff in Alloa are very friendly and always have good chat. Previous reviewer complained about cold food and refusal to re-heat it: I work in a food environment, similar to Greggs and there are reasons for this: They're simply not allowed to. Food like this either has to be kept above a certain temperature in a hot unit, or placed for display and allowed to cool at room temperature. The reason that places like Greggs no longer have hot units is because of the controversial "Pasty Tax" introduced by the government in 2012. If they kept food hot, they'd have to add 20% to the price, so they don't, to keep prices down. In my experience with Greggs in Alloa, the staff always tell you if something isn't hot and will tell you what is, if you ask them. Really can't fault the service here, or the price.

I had a slice of pizza today which was stone cold and they refused to re-heat it. To top it off, they did not even have salt and pepper, only sugar. What a miserable place to eat. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Quite disappointing for me and my friend with additional support need today. I asked for a normal mug as we usually do in Costa as it's easier and safer for my friend to enjoy her coffee. The young guy was very welcoming and pleasant said that the dishwasher was broken and they only had takeaway cups available, he did however ask another staff member who was doing something at the back wall. I heard the other staff member say quite blatantly "no, because if we do it for one then everyone else will expect it" We had a valid reason to request a mug yet this woman couldn't have cared less. So thank you CostaTillicoultry for not being willing to accommodate someone with additional support needs to enjoy coffee & lunch. Not a very inclusive attitude, hence we won't be back :(

Waited 45 minutes for our food, two ingredients listed on the menu are missing on each of our breakfasts - we weren’t told that they will be missing items, we weren’t given extras to compensate for the missing items, one of my sausages was a different colour inside than the other one - assuming it was undercooked as it was more pink, and there was not enough cutlery to use either. One man cooking everyone’s food on a Sunday Morning is not okay. The staff would have known about the delays and could have told us at ordering that there is long waits, so we could have got something else to eat and not waste our time. And also inform us about the missing items and maybe compensate for those too

Absolutely amazing owner and wonderful service. Went out of his way to feed us and cooked a beautiful curry. Highly recommended.
