Costa Coffee

GREAT HIDEOUT FROM RAIN! We nipped in here to escape the West of Scotland's version of monsoon conditions, without any trace of warmth in the rain/wind. That warmth kicked-in when we went through the door . The restaurant hadn't scrimped on the heating and the place was lovely warm. Whilst it was kinda busy, the very friendly and attentive staff were working any small queue really well. Delicious hot rolls and sausage, good sized coffees with a carmel shortcake chaser, and the day started to make sense again. Costa, you should be rightly proud of your Helensburgh staff. Well done!

Usual Costa fare, no complaints here, staff are busy, so service appears to be disengaged from the customers, and tables aren't promptly cleaned. I just find generally the interiors of most costa outlets look tired and dirty, especially those that have been open for a long time. That said at least it was open on a damp Sunday afternoon, which is more than some coffee shops in town, so extra star for that.

Friendly staff, open nice and early which was handy. I’ll reserve my 5/5 stars for really special stuff, but this Costa is as good as you could reasonably expect a Costa to be! I was a little disappointed that on the first day there was a choice of three types of breakfast roll, but upon returning two days later there was only the chipolata sausage rolls left, I’d had my eye on one that I thought said it came with apple chutney, but had to settle for ketchup, was still a lovely roll though! And the coffee is always good 👍🏻
