The place was nice .. though I didn't like their toast that much.. it's a bit pricey. The size and taste was not worth it. But my friends and I will definitely come back more often for that #LondonFeels. Lol
The menu on this app is not updated at the said place. I hope they update it.
The people are nice.
Sometimes they ran out of sandwiches..i love their sandwiches...i hope they serve pasta and breakfast.
I hope they open earlier than 8am.

Okay this is kinda late but idc.
So my friend and I met up last Dec. to review for our incoming quarterly exams and have decided that it'd be much better if we do it in a coffee shop in bgc. After roaming the place, we finally found Costa Coffee along 32nd Street in One World Place. The location is really nice, and looks exclusive since it isn't crowded unlike the other coffee shops in Aura or Market-Market.
Upon entering the said shop, we're shocked that we only found three customers and it's so quiet. Really a perfect place to review or study. Everything looks so comfy especially the seats and couches.
The crews and cashiers are all kind, very welcoming and approaching, too. They always have that 'smile' on their faces that every customers want. They are so friendly and very accommodating. The coffee and cakes taste so good, too. We bought Red Velvet and Blueberry Cheesecake and honestly I didn't find any distinct difference from that of other brands but still they taste good. That matters the most afterall. The coffee is good, too. Everything is worth the price.
One thing is for sure, I'll be coming back to this coffee shop again.

Great ambience, and great coffee in BGC. It's perfect for people who want to work on weekends/ holidays. They have WiFi, although it gets spotty sometimes.
Their food aren't as good as their coffee, though. In millennial terms, "Saks lang, pwede na." Maybe grab lunch at one of the restaurants around its vicinity before heading to Costa. 😊
I was able to sip a coffee and try their sandwich because of a workshop earlier. I'm not a fan of sandwiches but I really like their simple ham on a toasted bread serving.
The entrance is very welcoming and the section where the workshop was held was cozy.
This Costa Coffee branch is a quiet, fancy, and spacious coffee shop, not to mention that the staff are friendly too! At first I found it strange calling me "miss," then it reminded me that it's a British chain.
My Americano coffee (115 PHP) was nicely brewed, and so strong that it kept me awake on a rainy day. I also got myself tuna with seasalt and italian vinegar on ciabatta (135 PHP) that tasted SO GOOD.
I will definitely be back.
This is one attractive coffee shop with its British interiors and spacious place among the many coffee shop here in BGC. I have always wanted to go to London, that's why this place strike at my heart. Since it was a Sunday, the place was filled but nevertheless I found a perfect spot in the corner. I ordered their Iced White Chocolate which is a lot sweeter than I expected. I wasn't even able to taste a bit of coffee in it. Or I just might thought wrong that it was coffee based. But still it tasted okay.
First time to try Costa Coffee. I love the ambiance. I ordered flat white and capuccino for my client. Not so great, it was ok. I was able to drink it right away since it's warm. I also like their to-go cups very easy to hold and it's thick. Will def try again perhaps in other branches.
I liked the interiors of Costa Coffee. It very cosmopolitan and British-themed since the brand came from the U.K.
It's not as noisy as other coffee shops. For this particular store, we were there at around 5pm on a Friday afternoon and the place wasn't full.
We ordered Flat White and Mocha for our beverages. Just make sure to advise the barista to make your coffee extra hot.
For snacks, we had the ham and sandwich ciabatta, they toasted the sandwich which I prefer. And we also had the salted chocolate brownie which was not too sweet and I liked it.
Costa BGC will now be one of my favorite places. First, it is very far from the BGC noise. I mean, it is located at 32nd Street and not everyone has explored that area (I hope it will stay that way. HAHAHA.) Second, of course, the fast wi-fi connection so I can really work peacefully. 3rd, their playlist! Hahahaha!!!
Anyway, I would recommend their Flat White and Iced Latte (sweetened).

I'm not a coffee drinker but since England is close to my heart I just had to try the newly opened Costa Coffee at BGC. Costa is UK's Starbucks. You'll see it in every service station (gas station) in town. It's just impossible to miss. It's everywhere. Upon entrance, the feature that struck me most was the very British interiors (literally). There was a couch imprinted with a flag of the Great Britain to the left of the main entrance and a replica of the red telephone booth in one corner. Its a good venue if you just want to sit and chat with your friends over some good coffee at anytime of the day. England is my 2nd home, where I get to sample pies and pastries particularly my favourite "flapjack" (in photo). It's like revel bars that come in larger square portions. In Manila it's not called a "flapjack", but the one I ordered tasted like a flapjack. Texture was close to the real flapjack too, just that the slice is a little thicker in England. While traveling all around UK I did try the latte at several services to keep me awake. Comparing it to CostaPH's latte, the one in Manila is a little more on the sweet side. But the brew was fine, definitely finer than the ones from Starbucks. Staff were smiling, spacious seating. Didn't get to check their restroom, but overall I'd give this place a 4. Will definitely take my English boyfriend here (not to Starbucks) when he visits Manila this October!
Thank you CostaPH for taking little bits of Great Britain to Manila!
Great ambiance, friendly staff and awesome coffees. Good place to try if you're tired of the usual CBTL or Starbucks. Always worth a walk when you're around BGC
The place is very nice and clean. I like the ambience. The staff was very nice and friendly. I love everything on their menu especially the hot green tea latte! Kudos! :)
The place is really nice. Its awesome. And the ambience is really great. It's my first time here and it did not disappoint. The place was very spacious.
Its a great place to have your alone time, spend time with your friends, study or just enjoy your coffee.
The baristas were really accomodating, friendly and attentive. They answer all my questions and even informed me of their recent promo. The experience was really nice and i will definitely go back to try their food and coffee.
Definitely one of my favorite cafe's in the metro! Their coffee is better than most of the over-rated coffee shops around. The place is nicely themed with English decors, chairs are cozy and very spacious. Food is also nice, warm, freshly-made sandwiches and cakes. Not to forget their great choice of music from famous English bands and singers. One thing though, I hope they extend their operating hours. We went there to grab our breakfast at around 8am but they're still closed! Also went there to spend a Friday night, but was informed that they'll close at 9pm. Why? #SAD
I finally had the chance to try another international coffee brand. One big difference is a hip and modern interior. I couldn't help but click to get more photos of the place.
Costa is a London brand which boasts also great coffee.i enjoyed Caramela coffee wth nice caramel touch) as well as two chocolate themed desserts- Dark Chocolate Cake and Peanut Butter Chocolate Swirl.
The place also serves fresher sandwiches than most coffee places. Those I'd like to have on my next trip.
My twin sister Loves flat white, and she thinks Costa has one of the best flat white coffees in town. I felt the opposite. i guess im not into flat white. The mocha on the otherhand is good just the way i like it. and yes the red velvet should be the best seller. The cookie too

I just love the interiors, very spacious and quiet. The couches are so comfy and cute to look at. The drink was okay as well as the background music. I could stay there for hours.
Finally a decent coffee shop that's not as chaotic as Starbucks. I can sit here alone all day and just enjoy my dessert and coffee with it's cozy ambiance and privacy. This is actually a perfect study nook or if you need to concentrate and focus on doing something. Their best seller is the Flat White Coffee. I like the strong espresso taste and doesn't taste milky even it has milk ( i actually drink my coffee black). Higher proportion of coffee to milk. Must try desserts: Dark Chocolate Cake and Red Velvet. Moist and not too sweet perfect with the Flat White Coffee
If you're looking for (relatively) cheap, cozy, and good coffee... Starbucks is not it.
Head over to Costa Coffee in BGC. Their London cheesecake and Red Velevet Cheesecake are seriously to die for! And the coffee? Its just really different. Its probably from the way it is roasted or grinded? I dunno. Just try it. Please.
This cafe is definitely one of my favorite coffee spots in BGC. This branch particularly is very spacious at the same time not very crowded. I think there were only 5 tables occupied during our whole stay (imagine we were there for 3 hours) so we were able to chitchat freely without disturbing the other tables. I tried their Double Chocolate Cookie frostino (sorry I forgot the exact name haha) because the staff told me it is one of their best sellers. True enough, it tasted really good and I can really appreciate the bitter taste of the caffeine. My friends ordered the Caramel Popcorn Latte frostino which they super enjoyed as well. It had popcorns on top and shredded ones at the bottom so you could taste them while sipping your coffee. The interiors were also screaming London every nook and cranny. This is definitely a great study spot for anyone who loves to stay at a coffee shop to study. :)
Probably one of the best discoveries for me for 2015. Huge coffee fan. I got so giddy of course after finding out that the newly opened Costa Coffee branch was a couple of steps away from our office building. What intrigued me was the fact that it originated from the UK. Their place is huge and cozy. I love that they have WiFi available so one can escape to this place when cramming (or concentrating) for work. Place is very conducive for meetings too.
My staples are their flat white coffee and melted cheese sandwich. Coffee is not too strong but I like the blend. The mug sizes are huge so if you just need an upper, the primo size is more than enough.
One look at the interiors you'd know Costa Coffee is Brit. British flag is embedded in the design everywhere - the sofa, the wall, the ottoman. A symbolic red telephone booth is displayed just like the ones in London. Coming here gives you a grand feeling mainly because of the high ceilings. Chairs and tables are arranged farther than most coffee shops, which gives you privacy in your conversations. A variety of coffees, sandwiches and pastries are displayed for you to choose from and yes, they have wifi! We came here for sunday breakfast, had a croissant, coffee and cheese steak sandwich. Yes. The sandwich is good. The coffee is also good. I would like to come here again and again if not for the food, for the privacy.
My friend and I met for coffee at the newly-opened Costa Coffee branch at BGC.
We both had the Flat White for our coffee. The bestselling coffee of Costa Coffee is spot-on, slightly bitter but smooth. I always choose this drink whenever I visit Costa Coffee.
I also ordered Ham and Cheese on Ciabatta while my friend had the London Style Cheesecake. We loved both dishes as well.
The service was excellent and the place is quite spacious. I would love to go back here soon.
