Default Starbucks or Costa?
Where do you prefer drinking out of the mainline coffee chains?

Not a fan of either and the way people get ripped off and are prepared to pay 4.00 for a coffee is insane

In Spain you get two Café con Leches, a small glass of water, small glass of orange juice, and 4 mini pastries for 3.20 euros in the local coffee shops, no sign of costa on the costas

The Coffee Bean Tea Leaf reigns supreme, though they don’t sell it in the UK, their Ice Blended drinks are just ...
(Which are everywhere in Asia, and the States...)

Though if I had to pick between the two, Starbucks, only tried Costa once, so I don’t have a proper opinion on it...

Costa... Starbucks put WAY too much sugar in their drinks for my liking... although Cafe Nero is the best.
