Costa, Spinning Gate

Scruffy and filthy… coffee more expensive than the caffs in market etc

Love to chill and have an English Breakfast tea in here but the food doesn't match the quality of the drinks. The muffins are quite dry at times and I personally find the 'Toasted sandwiches' a bit tasteless. Staff are always friendly and courteous and if you want a great tasting coffee, this is the place.

Clean, comfortable and lovely staff Daneille especially, I am usally a nervous order but she was so kind. I can confirm the new straws are more durable, I'll no longer need two for my drink.

Thank you for the amazing and caring staff member. I needed some non-sweet drink and decided to try new tea. Being pregnant felt too hot. Asked to cool it down and receive the awesome service. Appreciate it a lot ??

Just left this Costa and will not be returning. Worst service I have ever received at a Costa. Super slow service, seems like chatting with coworkers is more important. Very poor organisation of duties. Employees DO NOT pay attention to what is on the receipts prior to making coffee. I asked for an extra hot hazelnut latte. If I didn’t mention that it’s a hazelnut to the lady making my coffee I would have received just a latte. She just glanced over the receipt without acually reading it. Sadly I did not check if she made it extra hot as requested. I left the store realising the coffee is just warm and not hot. She missed 2 important requests: Hazelnut and extra hot. When you go to a coffee shop you are expecting to get a coffee just the way you like it. Not the case at this store You receive a basic coffee with any special requests ignored. On top of that service is super slow so it will be a wait. Will never visit this costa again

I'm a regular customer & have been for last 5 years. The food is good - I'm partial to ham & cheese toasties - service is always efficient, & the place has a nice atmosphere. Likewise it's always very clean, & the male loo is spotless.

Top service here in Leigh! Came here over three days on a course and the lady serving us remembered our coffee orders every time and provided it with a warm, friendly welcoming. Very impressive and greatly appreciated.

Blows my mind why a coffee shop isn’t open earlier in the morning when people are on their way to work. You are situated right next to a bus stop with people constantly coming in and out.

This would make a perfect drama tv program. Appart from over priced for luke warm coffee. And waiting for your drink is worse than waiting for a mc donalds. A queuing system they can see you getting frustrated waiting 10 minutes + for your drink. Then the staff blatantly stare at you then start wisperimg in each others ears. Then look around and stare at you again. And continue to have there conversation on.

Dark, dank atmosphere, and absolutely disgusting toilets. I spoke to a member of staff who brushed me away like I'd spat on her ( only asked her if there was a cleaner on duty as it smelled like dirty urinal in there, and floor was wet!). Didn't stay for the planned coffee and cake, as if the toilets are like that, how clean is the rest if the place? Mop bucket in clear view and right next to a table? Really?, Will never go in there again! Disgusting and flippant attitude sealed it for me!

No complaints at all, but the only observation is that the quality of the coffee varies slightly at some outlets. Example at the Lowry there is a slight difference between Costa and Cuppa coffee. Both coffees were OK.

Quite a lousy Costa. Week coffee more like coloured hot water had it replaced but no better. And for the price it should be great coffee there supposed to be Baristas. Online orders seem to take priority over customers waiting in line, shop is short staffed as tables are always minging and stacked with used trays you wipe you feet when leaving this store its that bad. The other Costas at the Parsonage are a world better even Next's Costa has more atmosphere than this place. One to avoid. If your desperate for a drink try in the market hall.

Absolutely appalling service from a stroppy member of staff. I tried to break the ice by asking if she was having a bad morning and she pulled a face and nodded. A male member of staff talking openly in front of customers about an unhappy customer he'd served. Only the more senior batista came out with any credit. I returned in the afternoon and it was no better. Still a surly attitude, and within 2 seconds of saying I didnt want chocolate on my coffee, it was on there. Didnt ask for it to be remade in case she flipped. The least pleasant Costa experience I've ever had

Nice drinks and cakes. I do like that they now do M & S food. I felt we waited longer than I would like to and I was unsure why as there seemed to be lots of staff at the counter.

Not bad. Still hilariously overpriced when u can go n buy a pack of lattes/choc sachets for under 3 quid at Asda and a packet of mr Kipling tarts for 2 quid whilst Costa charge like almost a fiver for 1 tart slightly bigger than 1 out of a packet, but me other half loves the place and she insiated on paying so......

The temperature was way too hot and apparently they weren't allowed to use air conditioning as a result the milk was off and I drank part of it before realising that it was curdled and turned to a porridge state and was unsightly and horrid. But this is a reflection of bad area management and not store management...

The outlet was obviously under staffed. We managed to find a table that wasn't piled up with dirty cups and plates, but the table was filthy. I had to go and ask one of the two members of staff for a cloth to clean the table. We are regular Costa Customers, but have never had such a bad experience. We will NEVER use the Leigh Spinning Jenny outlet again.

I have recently discovered the almond hazelnut protein latte.... Lush...... I always go here when I do my weekly shop. It is always busy so it can take a few minutes to get served but it is definitely worth it

Nice place but service is always super slow. Staff need to either be retrained or changed. Always plenty of staff on but they just prefer talking or faffing about than doing any work

Well maintained store and very friendly service. When we visited it was very busy and we did queue for approx 20 mins for our drinks. I didn't mind this as could see they were busy but others who were waiting were frustrated.

Service was really poor. Quite a few visible staff but not a lot of working. Waited over 10 mins from ordering to receiving the 2 drinks I ordered. The staff member making the drinks seemed to pick up on my impatience and deliberately slowed down further. The drive thru on the retail park has exceptional service and speed.

I spent 25 minutes waiting to be served - there were only 3 people in front of me in the queue, but staff seemed to be held up preparing orders for collection. No vegan cakes on offer (I was hoping there would be some of the new rocky road available). What I did order was as good as expected (toast with jam and soya flat white with an extra shot).
