Costa Coffee, Ashbourne

Disinterested staff, clean your own table, wait in line, terrible food, dirty, scruffy, badly in need of refurbishment, overpriced, a completely underwhelming experience. I’m not going anymore, there’s loads of alternatives in Ashbourne.

My wife I were warmly greeted by a very pleasant chatty young lady who had excellent customer service skills. We decided to visit Costa whilst enjoying a visit to Ashbourne for a coffee cake. I had a latte with an almond raspberry slice my wife had an americano with a piece of chocolate orange cake. The coffee was excellent, hot, smooth tasty. The cakes were very good, fresh a reasonable size. The cafe was clean including the toilets had a nice atmosphere. Would visit again if in Ashbourne.

Untidy. Not too.speedy at clearing tables and invariably if you dont clear them yourself there is nowhere tobsit comfortably.

Excellent service, Costa Ashbourne clearly hire coffee making maestros. Foood was impeccable as always. Always made to feel welcome

Once the cafes had reopened I decided to have a visit in Ashbourne for a coffee and a shop around to get out the house, I was very conscious to wear a mask where required and hand sanitise also, all the shops had one way systems and rules in place which where easy to follow. Upon my visit to Costa it was like someone had dropped 100 arrows on the floor going all directions like a game of snakes and ladders on a children's playground!!! I proceeded into the cafe, confused and then got shouted at for not following all the confusing arrows on the floor I honestly wih I had go a photo. The staff member behind the counter then had a go at me again for not standing in the correct place I was the only one in the cafe and I was 2m back from the counter) I then shouted my order across the room swiftly paid feeling uncomfortable and left. Such poor service and quite clearly no one had property thought about the process, its not rocket science to show a one way system with some plastic arrows.
