The bread is really nice and there's a choice of different types of rolls and baguettes. Although the shop is quite far from the town centre it is really handy for passing trade and serves Raffles and nearby areas really well. The shop is always very busy and it is also handy for the school if you have forgotten your child's packed lunch. Their bacon rolls are top notch in the morning particularly after a night out.

Our train from Carlisle to Edinburgh was canceled and so we had some extra time while waiting for…read morethe next train. I spotted this Costa Coffee across the street while speaking with the staff at the train station and decided to stop by for some coffee and a bite to eat. They had coffee, pastries, and a handful of grab and go items of sandwiches, drinks and more. I got a hot white mocha and we also got two toasties. My mocha was just ok and did leave something to be desired. The toasties however were spectacular! Toasties are buttered on the outside, so it develops a crisp, golden exterior and pressed together so that bread and filling are perfectly married. I don't know if it was the warm, gooey cheese, the perfectly toasted bread or what, but yuuumm! This started a string of Costa visits throughout the rest of our stay in the UK. This location by far had the best toasties though :) Great spot to kill some time in between trains! Lots of nice, comfy seats available inside. You can also sit by the windows and take in the view of the Carlisle Citadel across the street while enjoying your cup of joe.

I ordered the delicious Toffee Spiced Latte, and also some chocolatey treat (I can't really remember what it was, I just remember it tasting fantastic!!). The staff that work in here were very friendly and polite, and went through all of the different options that I could add to my drink. If you're looking for somewhere to sit down and relax, this place is your best bet! They even have lots of comfy outdoor seating.

The interior is dated but well kept and clean, the prices are also in line with the local area. There was an annoying beeping sound every so often, I don't know what from but if you get annoyed easily by that sort of thing then avoid. It didn't bother me. I ordered a coke and scrambled egg. The coke was overpriced for just a standard bottle, but the scrambled egg was quite cheap. It was ok but nothing exceptional. And that's this café all over really, ok, but nothing special. I would come here again if there were no where else open, but I'm still searching for a truly great café in Carlisle.
