Quite attractive inside, very tempting selection of cakes and a range of drinks. Wifi provided which is useful. But, what is really scored on my memory about my recent visit here is the disgusting toilet, I thought I was going to pass out with the pungent urine stench when I opened the door: disgusting! Urine all over the floor..... The price of Costa's drinks keeps escalating, even a mini latte (smaller than a 'small') is £2.65 now, very expensive for a average-tasting small-sized coffee (the 'cost price' of the ingredients is about 20p!): better-tasting lattes usually available from independent coffee shops.
Served cold caramel latte. Almond cake was not fresh at all. You need a strong teeth to break that cake. Will not recommend This place at all. It’s so dirty place to sit and eat. Will never go there again my advise avoid this costa if you can.
It was really nice visit, specially love to try Chai Latte. Ohhhhh taste was really nice, it’s mean staff know better how to make. Customer service was good ????. The staff was really helpful. Place was really clean. As Costa located heart of barking. Just opposite side of barking station. So staff really friendly as they know what customer want. I highly recommend everyone.
After finishing my booking at Barking today afternoon, I found myself in need of a coffee, so went to Costa, a place where I go regularly, and expected something similar to my experience. But, I was disappointed, as apart from the “COSTA” sign everything was contrary to my expectations. Most of the chairs were old and dirty, costumer service was below the standards. One of the staff was cleaning her nose then touching the cups!!! The coffee was cold. I am not surprised why, unlike other COSTA shop, there were very few customers in this branch, which is next to the train station and should have encouraged many to come in.
Absolutely the slowest staff ever!! Had 8 minutes for my bus so ordered iced latte. Paid money. Staff member put milk and ice to the cup. I’ve been waiting and waiting for next 5 mins, one staff member was counting tea bags while people were queuing, another was cleaning messy coffee machine and third was on the till and running up and down behind the till pretending to do something. I left with no coffee and no money back. Absolutely don’t recommend.
