Staff are super friendly! Atmosphere is nice although slightly crowded but at midday what can you expect? Staff are easy to talk to and can even recommend drinks honestly! I don’t have much more to say but it’s a shame that Costa is quite expensive.

I had a fantastic experience at Costa in Enfield Town recently. Annie and Dus were absolutely amazing, especially considering how busy it was when we arrived. They handled everything with professionalism and efficiency, all while maintaining a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. It was clear they were running the show and doing it brilliantly! Thank you both for making our visit so enjoyable. Highly recommend this branch for great service and excellent coffee!
