What graham t likes about Costa Coffee:
This was my first time visiting Costa in Dorchester for a friends get-together. The staff were friendly, cheerful, and attentive. The restaurant was clean and organized, and the atmosphere was pleasant. The food and drinks were well-prepared and served hot. I will definitely return to Costa again in the future. View all feedback. What Samantha Hassler doesn't like about Costa Coffee:
What happened to the pastries at this restaurant? I hope they're not all from the same supplier. I paid £2.40 for an overcooked pain au chocolat. And the chocolate twists? They were terrible! They used to be a nice treat, but now it feels like we're being ripped off for low quality, overcooked pastries. Only fools would pay those prices. Greggs offers larger and better pastries at a much lower price. Stick to getting... View all feedback.

I ordered a takeaway salted caramel frappe. The person making my drink seemed stressed as she was training a new staff member. When I got back to my car to drin...

Nice Costa which has recently been updated. It does always seem short staffed though which can make it a tricky task for the baristas.

Nestled on the pedestrian-friendly Corn Hill in Dorchester, Costa Coffee presents a dichotomy of experiences. While some patrons rave about the friendly and attentive staff, pleasant ambiance, and well-prepared food and drinks, others recount unfortunate encounters with uncleanliness, particularly in the restrooms, and inattentive service. Customers have voiced disappointment over staff indifference and communication mishaps, leading to frustrating visits. Despite these inconsistencies, many appreciate the spacious seating areas and the quality of the coffee itself. As such, visitors may find themselves divided on whether to return or explore alternative coffee spots.

About the same number of staff as customers so a pity we needed to clear a table ourselves when staff seemed very happy chatting together. Nice coffee though.
