Clean. Reliable. Does the job.

The "lights out missionary" of food. Spotless kitchen, decent grub. Won't blow your mind, won't disappoint.

Friendly staff, but coffee luck varies.

Costa is the quintessential coffee stop, but this branch is a bit of a mixed bag. Nataliia and Krystl found the staff to be just delightful, with Yousuf and Sadiya winning hearts with their speedy service. However, one visit can land you in a coffee catastrophe. Dorothea encountered a barista who seemed ready to serve up yesterday’s leftovers, and Alyssa’s experience was so bad she felt the need to share her coffee intolerance struggles. Not to mention, Faduma had a run-in with a barista that made the experience feel more like a bad sitcom episode than a friendly coffee shop.

If you need a caffeine fix and don’t mind a gamble on service quality, this Costa might be worth considering. Just don’t expect consistency.
