About Costa Coffee

Costa Coffee at Waterloo Square is the South Shields branch of the national coffee chain, sitting among the shops in the heart of the town centre. It serves the familiar Costa range of espresso-based coffees, sandwiches, cakes and pastries in a comfortable sit-in setting, making it a handy stop while shopping or between errands in town.

South Shields' independent cafes, many of them along Ocean Road and near the seafront, are the town's real strength for character and a warmer welcome. Costa holds its own as a dependable, familiar option when you know exactly what you are getting.
