Starbucks (I only get a filter coffee or Americano, nothing fancy, so there's not much difference for me, but Starbucks are usually more comfortable - depending which one you go to of course, and they give free refills which Costa don't.)

This. My daughter loves the vanilla essence they add. Coffee is like whisky. Its an acquired taste and you shouldn't add anything to it.

Exactly. All that crap they add to it ruins it.

I get free Starbucks my friends boyfriend is a manager and he let's us have free drinks if we go through the drive thru

I alternate between Caramel Frap, Strawberry and Cream Frap and if it's somebody we know serving Candyfloss Frap (which is just vanilla I think)

A Quick Ode By Kirk For Mokka

I like neither Costa or Starbucks coffee
But if YOU worked in either shop,
I'd suddenly develop a taste for both
And my coffee intake would never stop.
