Posted March 11, 20178 yr comment_247994 https://www.thorpepark.com/resort-information/food-drink/restaurants I'm not sure if this has already discussed on here, but the Coffee Shack in the Dome is going to start selling Costa Coffee and their food. I think it will be nice to get a cup before I leave. I wonder if you will be able to get MAP discount here?

Sounds like they'll just be selling Costa coffee instead of whatever they were selling before, rather than going all-out Costa. I seem to remember Alton Towers doing this for a while. I can remember when the Mexican place near Nemesis Inferno was a Costa (which later became Caffe Nero) and for a time it coexisted with the Caffe Nero in the dome.
March 12, 20178 yr comment_248007 Loads of places just 'sell' Costa rather being a full out branch. I've noticed all the Premier Inn pubs do this as well as lots of universities and colleges.
March 12, 20178 yr Author comment_248040 Thanks for the replies everyone My collage actually sells Costa's food (cakes, sandwiches ect) that's where I got the idea from. I can't wait to have a nice hot chocolate on a freezing cold October Fight Night!
March 14, 20178 yr comment_248076 Yay for coffee - I'm such a caffeine addict and generally find Thorpes coffees to be nice - only complaint is they need to sell iced coffee - that stuff is the best

March 26, 20178 yr comment_248566 Costa has now been rolled across Thorpe, Towers and Lego... for now. I wonder how long it will take for them to lose that agreement *cough* Starbucks is gone *cough cough*

Damn I personally prefer Starbucks and often refer to costa Coffee as "Costa fortune" but with discount it's not bad - also yummy - actually I think I prefer Costa - I've just confused myself dammit
March 29, 20178 yr comment_248632 I like having brands in the park. Although this is more of a "Proud to serve Costa" deal. Just remembered, I have enough points on my phone for a free coffee. Their flat whites are the best. Now just need some more branded food outlets. I saw Disneyland Paris just opened a Five Guys.
March 29, 20178 yr comment_248643 As long as they do hot chocolates, with all the add ons, I'm fine. I don't mind having shops from outside the parks come in as long as it's not literally every restaurant/food outlet. In fact, I think a full on COSTA shop would work well in the parks. Plus it would make my mum very, very happy
