Check bakes. Ask about bake freshness before ordering; one review says fresh options can be limited.
Request your cup. If takeaway matters, confirm paper cup or mug at the till and check the lid is not leaking.
Try back seating. For studying or quieter work, choose the back seating, where outlets are conveniently located.
Use Wi-Fi. The Wi-Fi is reported to work for an hour; you can request another session later.
Avoid peaks. If you want a calmer visit, go outside peak hours, when the branch can become busy.
Ask for Toasties. If hungry, ask for a Toastie to be heated freshly; one reviewer preferred it straight from the warmer.

The Bottom Line
Costa Coffee in Al Mankhool is the BurJuman coffee stop people use for more than a quick takeaway. You can order familiar hot coffees such as cappuccino, flat white and cortado, or go cold with an iced matcha or Coffee Cream Frappe. Cakes and sandwiches round out the menu, including blueberry cheesecake, Toasties and a croissant sandwich mentioned in reviews.
The branch has become more appealing since its renovation. Customers describe an inviting, cozy fit-out with plenty of seating, including desks with wireless charging and power outlets. The back area is quieter and has convenient sockets, while Wi-Fi is reported to last for an hour at a time.
Its second-floor position beside BurJuman metro also makes it an easy meeting point for coffee dates, informal meetings or a few hours of work. Service is the main variable. Some visits feature warm, attentive help, while others involve cold interactions, incorrect cups or a leaking takeaway container.
Fresh bakes can be limited, so ask when items were made before ordering. One older review also raised concerns about worn armchairs. Prices are described as not cheap, though a past DIB card 1+1 offer was considered good value.
