Costa Coffee

Popped into one of the six (yes 6) branches in Chelmsford. Organising the queue and spacing inside couldn’t be any better.

Then I noticed the state of my spoon.

Yeuch, you think that they’d be checking everything wouldn’t you?

As the founder of the Dibb's costa and starbucks social club I am very unhappy with your findings, and I hope you spoke to the costa manager about it?

If it was around 10am this morning I was in Costa in Chelmsford too ... but probably not the same one as there are so blimming many!

We were in the Barry one yesterday. Really well organised and it felt great to be doing something so normal again.

Hope you told them about the spoon, Ericsmum!

Chelmer retail park, but 11.30 ish. I've given up on the one near Dunelm after the "manageress" was rude to me a few weeks ago ! I'll have to work my way through the rest now and then go on to Starbucks !

I've sent the photo to their head office, see what they've got to say for themselves. It's not acceptable.

We have lost the main Starbucks opposite M&S and not keen on the one in the middle of High Chelmer. Back in March the Costa on the Riverside Retail Park closed and had a revamp so it might be worth giving that one a try.

Making sure you leave before the over two hour parking fine kicks in!

Think you might have under-estimated Ericsmum - I make it 11 branches!
