Good manner doesn't cost. Kind regards K.G”

“Got a cappuccino for take away on a absolutely freezing old morning and it was really warming and tasty. Kept my hands warm too. Service was fast as they weren’t very busy as it was very early morning. Staff were smiling and friendly, nice and talkative as well which makes you feel a bit more comfortable Cappuccino tasted very nice and smooth. The standard Costa coffee taste that I’ve come to know and love. Will be returning again.”

“Cafe Costa is one of the options to sit and drink coffee, while shopping in the Artia shopping center. Their coffee is delicious, the process of ordering and preparing the coffee is fast. If there is a free table by the window, you can seat and watch the shops Atria. There is free Wi-Fi for customers to use. The place is very pleasant to sit.”

“I had a very good stop at this Costa in the Harlequin. The café is clean, bright, and nicely laid out, with enough seating to actually sit down and relax, even when it’s a bit busy. The staff were friendly and efficient. My order was taken quickly and prepared just the way I asked. Service felt smooth and well organised, which is exactly what I want from a coffee stop in a shopping centre. The coffee was hot, consistent, and enjoyable, and there’s a good range of snacks and cakes to choose from if you want something extra. Overall, it was a simple but very pleasant visit — good coffee, good service, and a comfortable place to take a break while shopping. I’d happily come back.”

“Really nice little coffee shop for some down time or needing to get work done! The drinks here are really tasty and have a wide variety of food to accompany them. The atmosphere is normally quite quiet until lunch time where it can get very busy! The staff are friendly and will make the drink how you like it! 5 stars all around!”

“Argyle "on tour". Our first away match in The Championship for 13yrs!! And what a fitting place to start in this pub. We were made very welcome and with a mixture of home and away fans and good friendly banter it was all enhanced by TV screens watching " The Arsenal " ( not a favourite team for the locals !! ) and England women. London Pride was the order of the day and the Landlord invited us to eat our fish and chips bought across the road, in the pub. Nice touch Boss !! Just less than a mile from Watford Junction station it was perfectly placed after our 0700 train from Plymouth. And we got a creditable draw against the home team.....excellent day all round!!”

“From the moment we walked in Jay greeted us with great warmth and friendliness! Exceptional customer service from both Nikki and Jay. Food was immaculate, thanks to the chef and the staff for the pleasant hospitality. We will be returning as this was our first visit special shout out to Nikki making us feel so welcome. Great asset to the team!”

“I had the pleasure of visiting Costa Coffee recently, and I must say, the experience was awesome. largely thanks to Geeta, the staff member who assisted me. From the moment I stepped in, she greeted me with a warm smile and made me feel incredibly welcome. She was not only professional but also attentive, ensuring I had everything I needed and recommending a new drink that turned out to be absolutely delicious and now it’s my favourite too.All the staff have friendly attitude and it’s clear that they all genuinely cares about providing top-notch customer service.Its truly made my visit memorable…Highly recommend!”

This place has a selection of hot and cold drinks to choose from There is a wide variety of cakes and hot and cold sandwiches to choose from. As there is a lot of seating available I never have any difficulty getting a table to sit at. Price wise I would say it is in line with eating at most coffee shops”

“We needed a coffee break from our shopping trip to Watford and noticed a Costa. I must say that My family and I received the most wonderful customer service by Mo Nusly and Roxana. They were both very hardworking and delivered our drinks and food with a smile. We had a few requests and they attended to our every need. They made the coffees to perfection. They have made my day and hope to visit again soon.”

“Stayed 2 nights in twin room. Rooms lovely and clean tea, coffee, kettle etc. Good location to train and bus station easy walking distance and flat. If your going to Harry Potter studios great location to drive or catch bus. Food in pub was fine, and good value for money. Staff are amazing especially Briony. Would stay again.”

“Had a great experience at the Wetherspoon in Watford. The ambience was really nice — welcoming and relaxed, perfect for a casual outing. The food was good and reasonably priced, living up to the Wetherspoon standard. The place was clean throughout, and the washrooms were surprisingly well maintained, which isn’t always the case in busy pubs. Overall, the place is aesthetically pleasing and well looked after. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!”
