We called in here on our way home to Cambridgeshire for tea, cappuccino and lemon muffins. The decor was different to most Costas and it looked clean and fresh. The two girls serving were friendly and helpful and offered to take our tray to our table. Another customer volunteered to do it for them = thank you for your help, much appreciated. Then one of the girls brought the rest of our order over. Would call in here again if we are in the area.

Spent nearly £50 in food and drinks at the Buckingham Costa. The sausage was cold in the breakfast wrap. They forgot the iced coffee, tiffin and cornflake cake. At one point there was a queue at the til and there was no staff to be seen.

For the second week running they said the washing machine was broken and so it was plastic cups again ? Lots of chairs in the restaurant were filthy and hadn’t been cleaned for weeks. Staff were stood around talking. This Costa (town centre) used to be good but has gone downhill. We won’t be going back.

Great space to take a break in and just to have a chill. Staff friendly, and the coffee / food is great. Enjoy reading my newspaper, there.

The Barista coughed all over the screen whilst taking our order. Staggered to the sink and got himself some water and started to mop sweat off his brow and from his eyes. He started our ice tea without washing his hands by putting ice in a beaker. He got our cake from the counter then made the tea in another beaker without the ice from the first. The whole thing was slow, unhygienic and painful to watch. The tea truly terrible.

We ask for water and he gave us glass cups but we wanted to take out so we ask for plastic cups but he gave us no ice no lids and no straws and he told us that’s a waste of the environment and you’re too young to be knowing that. Why be selling plastic then and he was overall rude.

Took the family out for coffee and eats on Saturday afternoon. Arrived at 4.55 and the staff had locked the doors ( it’s supposed to close at 6.00 pm). Staff inside laughing and talking and when I knocked on the window they just ignored me. Wrote to Costa the next day to complain and they don’t even have the manners to respond. This has happened to me 3 times now at this store. Luckily Harrisandhoole and coffee No.1 are also in the town. They can have my business from now on.

Had visited today at 2pm on a Saturday afternoon hoping for late lunch and Christmas coffees to find the door locked very disappointed, will it be re opening soon, or shut for good? All was not lost as we went to Coffee #1 over the road which was excellent, super quick.service, hot delicious festive food and drinks, will use again and recommend ?

Today was just a quick visit as I was waiting for a taxi. It was raining so I wanted to sit outside under the awning. That way I could see the taxi when it arrived. Barrista Matt wiped down a chair for me so my trousers wouldn't get wet, very considerate of him. Barrista Gergo made me an excellent almond hazelnut protein latte. This is my favourite Costa product at present. It is delicious and healthy, made with almond milk. Thank you Matt and Gergo, I enjoyed meeting you both. I'll call in again next time I'm in Buckingham. Superb service. Thank you!

This has got to be the slowest Costa I have ever had the misfortune to drive/crawl through…It takes forever.. lack of staff or lack of something…
Long wait. Not enough staff did a good job considering the challenges "Vegan bacon bap" basically cardboard on an incinerated roll -10 totally inedible £3.00 wasted
