THIS IS WHAT FROME NEEDED!! For some years the town council has stopped any bigger names coming into Frome, the rent has been horrendous for a reason, to put them off. But its about time the council woke up and smelt the coffee, because although Frome is full of little cafe's, solicitors and Hairdressers. Real coffee shops are rare.
If you want the American speciality coffee's then this is the place to go, although La Strada in Cheap st, is still a good place to go. (not that I've been there).
Costa is our little treat once a week to visit on a Sunday, when its not too thick with people, got the right atmosphere & not too laid back. The only downside to the cafe is its very dark. With a very long buidling that goes along way out the back, in the middle of other shops, there is only the big window at the front for any natural light, out the back is lighted, but its still very dark, and when its busy its not big enough!
Even on a Sunday, we've had to come back when its busy, no where to sit.
Costa never was a cheap place to drink. They offer cold drinks as well and now its heading towards christmas, they have got some lovely christmas drinks on offer as well.
Try it, you wont be disappointed. A taste of America, in Frome! read more
