From Friday 22nd November, Costa Coffee’s Leicester Meridien East Drive-Thru store will trial operating the Drive-Thru Lane only overnight from 10pm to 5am, with both the store and Drive Thru lane open daily from 5am to 10pm**.
To support the new operating hours, Costa Coffee has invested in growing its team, welcoming four new team members to help serve the local community.

“Costa Coffee has always been at the heart of the community, and this trial is another way for us to serve our customers when they need us most,” said Matt Harman, Regional Operations Director for North and Central England at Costa Coffee. “We’re proud that our Leicester Meridien East Drive-Thru is the first store to trial this exciting initiative.
