Costa has unveiled its 2023 autumn menu with the launch of eight new items and it's got us drooling over two new epic toasties that are arriving sooner than you think.
The popular eatery is set to change up its food and drinks menu ahead of the fast approaching autumn season but as kids look forward to the start of the new school term dates, parents have got something to look forward to on the school run.
Costa has launched some new flavours for customers to enjoy, including not one but two new epic toasties that will tantalise your tastebuds and they're arriving in stores nationwide on 31st August 2023.
First up, is the hog roast toastie with its melt-in-the-mouth hickory pulled pork with spiced apple glaze and savour the sweetness of caramelised onion chutney. Finished with sage and garlic stuffing and melted oak-smoked cheddar, topped with a cheesy garlic and herb bloomer bread that’s toasted to perfection.
And to beat the autumn chill there's the new Nacho Chilli Cheese and Chicken Toastie. Featuring juicy British roast chicken, fiery Mexicana® cheese, spicy jalapeños, drizzled with gooey cheese sauce and served on cheese and tortilla chip topped bloomer bread - because there’s no such thing as too much cheese.
And you can wash it down with one of the delightful drinks from the Maple Hazel range.
