I went to Costa in Forestside, this afternoon. Stood in a queue of 3 people for about 10min. I finally got to place my order for two oat lattes. The barista (young girl) had juggle with two jugs and I think she really confused herself. I have milk intolerance, yes it won't kill me, but gives me upset stomach and very uncomfortable pain. I was not asked for the reason of ordering a drink with milk alternative. At some point I could see semi skimmed milk, then some oat milk and only two take away cups in front of coffee machine. When drinks were handed to me I asked if they are definitely made with oat milk. The answer was - yes! I can tell you right now it was not oat milk in 100%. My stomach is very sore, very uncomfortable and I will have one hell of sleepless night. So much of taking allergies seriously š¤„
UPDATE! I was encouraged to get in contact privately with someone who's replied to my review, and all suddenly that reply disappeared š¤ interesting...

I ordered and he assumed something else instead of informing me they didnāt have it, when I repeated my order, is when he told me I needed to listen. So I ordered something else instead, with a dairy free milk. When I received it, it was not dairy free. We were all very astounded that we were treated the way we were, especially when there was 3 of us, completely put us off.
Update; I can confirm this was drumkeen, an email with proof has been sent, as staff should own up to their own mistakes, instead...
