Nice enough place and good coffee, check your change if paying by cash, I was short changed by 50p for my coffee got it back no problem when I told the person serving. Advise you pay by card.

I adore the mango bubble frappe. The staff in the Avonmeads branch are so polite and friendly.

Our drinks were made by a very friendly, but extremely busy employee, whose arms were moving around like a blurry octopus, trying to keep up with all the ordersIn the background, stood a guy holding a tablet doing absolutely nothing. I asked busy barista why the other guy wasn't helping his colleagues out and was told that he was from head office and he was there to monitor how much work the other staff were doingNobody likes to work whilst other people watch them, especially as the stalker guy was likely getting paid more to stand and watch his overworked colleagues…and tippy tap tap occasionally on his TABLET OF EXTREME POWERDrinks were fine-my latte in a mug request was accommodated without fuss and the cinnamon bun tasted pretty good, but then I'm on a diet so all food tastes better at the momentThis Costa is pretty loud, and today there was annoying music playing which didn't helpAfter finishing our drinks and food we left, and I noticed creepy conspicuous head office stalker guy had moved to a different position, but thankfully he was still tappy tap tapping on his TABLET OF EXTREME POWER every now and again. The poor guy probably needs a few weeks off to recover from all that tapping

The lady that served me on the drive through this morning at about 7:20am was lovely, very helpful and cheerful ?Food was as expected from Costa, but the lady really went the extra mile.

Great hot chocolate.

Very busy and hard to get a seat sometimes, but still a nice place!

Not quite sure that the servers were ‘switched on’ as asked me some strange questions while I was ordering (like did I want to order anything else before I’d even ordered anything). Bit chilly too.
I go there on a regular basis through convenience. Apart from two staff members who always appear pleasant and friendly, most of them seem to have an attitude, miserable and barely say hello. When I worked with the general public, I was always told to look cheerful and put on an act. I don't know if it's a generation thing, but respect goes a long way in life.

Had my car in for MOT. Googled nearest coffee place. Walked 15 minutes to this Costa as it said on the website open for dine in, delivery and take away. Got there and it’s drive-thru only. The actual cafe is closed. Obviously don’t have my car. What a waste of time. Could save people a lot of time and hassle by stating if the dine in facilities and / or drive thru is operating.

Drive-thru was shut so we went in to order. Had to wait 20 minutes for drinks as the cashier didn't pass on our receipt to the girl doing hot drinks who was literally carrying the entire team on her back- honestly kudos to her, she didn't stop! The food and drinks were great otherwise :)

The place is almost always closed due to faulty card machines or being understaffed. Just today I was not served from the takeaway/Drive through because I was not a car when the door sign explicitly said have service from the takeaway. There was only 1 van waiting behind me so it was not even a case of too many order plus staff was very rude
Always friendly and efficient!
