COSTA COFFEE

Costa Coffee is like that friend who’s always around but never really shines in the spotlight. You know what you’re getting with a chain, and this one's not changing the game anytime soon. The coffee is decent enough, but if you’re expecting something that’ll knock your socks off, you might want to set your expectations a tad lower. The vibe is calm, but let’s face it, calm can sometimes be synonymous with boring. So, if you're just looking for a quick caffeine fix to keep you awake through the week, Costa will do the job.

However, don’t expect the staff to remember your name or your order after the first sip. It’s a place to fuel up, not to fall in love. Sure, it has a hygienic rating of 4/5, but that’s not exactly the hallmark of greatness. Just another day in the life of an average coffee shop.
