They are all relatively interchangeable for me, rarely use them to be honest.

Monmouth coffee in Borough market of course beats them all hands down (if you can handle the queues).

I did have a Black sheep coffee last weekend and that was very good, they seem to be popping up over London.

Of the big chains I'm a Nero man then Starbucks.

I think Costa is a bit naff, doesn't surprise me they're the great British public's favourite

The coffee is rank

And wasn't impressed with hot chocolate either.

Prefer the independent ones but otherwise Costa and a few of the Nero ones. Some iof the Nero places havr not been updated for long long time. I have never been keen on Starbucks.

Neither would be ideal but out of the 2, probably Costa.

Starbucks toilets are much cleaner to use in service stops I find ... other than that I avoid them as I dont drink coffee/tea

Coasta let me take the dog in, even though it says Guide Dogs only, Starbucks won't. So it's obvious really.

Starbucks do nice fancy coffees at certain of the year but overall the quality isn't great

I'm going to go with Starbucks because the only thing I ever buy from one of these places is a Frappucino. I once tried to get one in a Costa and ended up with nothing more than a cold coffee - yuck.

That said, McDonalds do a pretty good Frap these days and it's cheaper than Starbucks.

Not really much of a coffee drinker anymore otherwise. Hardly touch the stuff these days
