Costa - Sevenoaks
Costa
Description
Costa's charm lies in its quaint setting, despite some interior flaws like cold temperatures. The coffee may not be exceptional, but it serves as a standard pick-me-up. Service varies, with some visitors receiving a warm welcome and efficient staff, while others encounter lukewarm beverages and lackluster options. Overall, Costa can be hit or miss, making it a reliable, albeit not outstanding, choice for a casual meal or coffee break.

Coffee was okay (not very hot) when we finally got it, only 2 staff available on a Saturday so there was quite a wait. 4 people walked out!
Clearly an old pub which has been converted and could be quite quaint but as a pub it would have had multiple toilets now it has the standard Costa single unit which for getting on for 100 seats is very poor. Bored staff chatting to friends and no plate for my pre packed sandwich!
We came to Costa with family for coffee on my mother-in-law's birthday just after Christmas. Overall, I was unimpressed. It is a lovely old building but inside is cold (most of us remained in coats and it was still chilly) and rather grubby. Service was average and we were slightly put off by the young person behind the counter fiddling with his hair before handling food. The coffee itself was ok but not hot. I would not be keen to return.
I do not recommend this branch to anyone. Exceptionally dirty tables and disinterested staff. Coffee is fine however.
Visited with my daughter for a pre- Christmas lunch for the first time in a year. Whilst the coffee and sandwich were up to the usual Costa standards, the place was filthy. Dust covered the surfaces of shelves, bins were overflowing and the tables and chairs needed a good scrub. The staff were pleasant, but run off their feet. Really the place should be closed for a refit and redecoration to restore it to the pleasant cafe it once was.
