A large, modern Starbucks location in Burnley, it is a good walk from the town centre so if you are…read moreheading here, I'd recommend either using a car or getting a bus to Burnley Barracks station and it's a short walk from there. The store has a drive-thru, but you can still walk in and place your order which is handy if you fancy a takeout drink during the UK's ongoing lockdown. They don't accept mobile orders which is a shame, as it was recently expanded to include many more stores including some franchises, so it's a shame this one missed out. It is a franchise store, so prices are a little higher than normal, my drink ended up costing £0.15 more than at a corporate owned store, although compared to other franchises it did cost more again. I ordered a Venti iced Gingerbread Latte, I was just happy to get one seeing as though the majority stores have moved on from the festive red cups, my drink was good and I was pleased they were accepting reusable cups, considering many stores have ditched accepting them again following the UK's third national lockdown. The staff seemed really friendly and happy to help, the interior was also really nice, so it could be a nice place to sit inside with a drink when government legislation allows, there is also limited outdoor seating on a rare nice day, I wouldn't particularly want to sit there as it is part of an Esso/EG Petrol Station, but they have tried to make it as nice as they can. 4* - Overpriced for sure and I was just relieved to have an earned reward so I didn't have to pay the full £4.60 for my drink, but I was happy with my overall experience, the store is nice, the drinks are nice and the service was good too.

Continentals is a great little cafe come restaurant on Kierby Walk in Burnley. Perhaps not…read moresurprisingly considering the name, it sells continental food with a great Mediterranean flavour and theme to many of the dishes. The seating area is quite small and it does get busy at lunchtimes but the food is delicious and reasonably priced, making it a great alternative to the chain fast food restaurants in Burnley. Continentals also offers food for takeaway and you can telephone your order to ensure it's ready for a speedy collection during your lunch break. If you enjoy fresh salads, perfectly grilled meats and have a love of olives then Continentals won't disappoint!

This Costa Coffee location is one of two in Burnley town centre, the location seemed to be a little…read morestrange to me, being on the Ground Floor of the Tesco Extra store, right next to the lifts, obviously, this can be handy to pop in before or after your shopping. Having this store does come at the expense of having a Tesco Cafe, I do prefer the latter as they usually offer a greater range of hot food compared to a standard coffee shop, I would have thought a Tesco Cafe which serves Costa Coffee (similar to most of their locations), would have made more sense. There is a small seating area here, it pretty much looks and feels like a regular Costa store. I did find service to be a little slow, the staff were in the back when I arrived and there was nothing to get a barista's attention, and I always feel uncomfortable having to shout to get them to hear me when the staff are in the back room. I did find the coffee to lack flavour, and the selection of food also seemed depleted, despite not being busy at all in the middle of the day. 2* - Useful while shopping in Tesco, but this location could be so much better if you do have time to take the short walk into the town centre, there is a larger Costa as well as many better alternatives.

Costa coffee is in tesco. They sell normal bog standard coffee like any other big coffee chain. Ok…read morefor on the go after you've done your weekly shop.

Bridges café is a lovely little café at the back of Burnley town centre, next to The Bridge pub…read more There is an eat in area which looks pleasant enough although I have only ever used the take away shop which is separated from the seating area. Café Bridges sells a good range of lunchtime food including sandwiches, baked potatoes, pasties, salads etc. The food is always fresh and tasty and they do some lovely combinations of sandwich fillings. Although it's popular and there are often queues, service tends to be quick and is always friendly. The prices are a little on the high side but it's worth it for food that is of a higher quality and fresher than many prepacked sandwiches you may find elsewhere.

Staff friendly. The costa rewards programme isn't the best but a must have if you do visit. Also your card can be registered to your iPhone or Android making capturing the points and seeing the balance an easy task. I bought a large and a small latte along with a toasted teacake, all good quality and gained 25 rewards points (meaning 25p cash back onto the card in effect)...
