Visited the Costa at Hinckley, and it was very busy. Ordered three toasted sandwiches for three people, also ordered deluxe hot chocolate and two coffees.

Coffee is good, and the Staff aren't that Friendly, so everything slow and something stunk really Bad. Prefer Costa Shop in the Crescent where everything is quite quick and they appreciate the Customers, especially you is coming all the Time.

Still the same old, same old ?, but the shop seems very cool ? not very comfortable if the weather is wet and windy, as it's been lately.

Staff a bit too busy to clean up around. Toilets were closed.Coffee was good, can't fault it.However, by paying them premium prices I expect better service.

Was not too busy today, plus they had at least 3 staff working.

Great coffee, friendly staff and good location.

oday at 14.10 we visited the Costa coffee place in Castle st Hinckley on the door was a hand written note stating temporary opening hours, which we read and it stated Sunday 10am until 3pm, so we knew we had enough time for our lunch. I purchased 2 x sandwich packs, 2 x carrot & walnut cake and 2 x medium cappuccino. I was told the coffee would come in takeaway cups, but I was flabbergasted when my sandwiches were just passed to me, no tray, then after paying £3.25 for the pieces of cake it was served to me in a per bag. I asked if I could have plates and forks for the cakes, I was told it’s takeaway only after 2pm, I pointed to others in the restaurant who had plates and crock cups, but was told they came in before 2pm. The lady that served me asked another member of staff if she could give me a fork and the staff member went off to find some, she came back with a packet of plastic forks and by this time I was seated and she came across and placed 1 plastic fork on my paper bag. 1 fork for two people. They then proceeded to close off the area and most of the staff were scurrying around tidying up. It was the most unpleasant situation and we were made to feel very unwanted. The cappuccino was awful but we dared not complain. We had used our gift vouchers for this and we felt completely disappointed. The sign on the door should have stated takeaways only after 2pm. It was dreadful service. I expect to be treated and served at 14.10 the same as someone being served at opening time.

The manager was miserable and rude to both staff and customers, other than that the rest of the staff are lovely and helpful
The staff were friendly and the service was good but it is a Costa - not sure what else to expect so cannot say anything more positive.

They haven't sold any cold/ iced drinks for over 3 weeks now and it looks like it's because the staff can't be bothered. Don't even put a notice on the door to say so either. I waited in a queue for over 10 minutes to be told. Staff are miserable and service is ridiculously slow. I used to come here all the time but I won't be coming back

Not the best visit here. Tables dirty, flys around where we were sitting, just not a pleasant experience

Could not have toast or toasted tea cake due to broken toaster.

Use to be my regular Costa for a Sunday morning breakfast. But having return after the various COVID lockdowns server has seriously gone down hill. It's a bit if a lottery as to whether they have any bread for toast or if the toaster is working! Some staff are miserable and struggle to force a smile. Coffee quality is patchy depending which barista makes it. Looking for some where else for my Sunday morning treat.
