Costa Coffee is another coffee chain pretty much like Starbucks, but based in the UK. There is nothing special about it, especially this location. The staff are always nice, friendly, and knowledgeable about the products they serve, but that's where the positive parts of this establishment end. The seating area is extremely cramped - you can't slide your seat out without hitting someone else in their seat at another table. The coffee is, well, just coffee. The only difference is you pay a fiver for a large cup of it. Same goes for the nibbles they have there - a chocolate chip cookie will set you back a few euro. Everything seems to be a bit over priced and all shoved into a small area - forget getting a buggy or wheelchair in this place. I would also like to note the big sign they have on the wall to me is a bit offensive. It says coffee brewed 'for the UK'. We are not in the UK, we are in Ireland. Maybe it's just me, but how hard would it have been to make one that says Ireland? read more
