A 90-seat Costa Coffee is coming to The Liberty Romford, where the coffee chain has signed a lease for a 4,096 sq ft café in a key gateway unit, scheduled to open in early 2026.

The deal was announced by Redical, the shopping centre’s owner and operator, and adds to its food and drink line-up. Other recent signings at The Liberty Romford include family play venue Kids Play Village, Gootopia, Moana Poke Bowl and Pret a Manger.

“At the very heart of Romford, The Liberty Romford’s diverse tenant mix resonates with the local community and pinpoints it as a prime location for us to serve our Nation’s Favourite coffee with heart. We look forward to opening shortly, and to delivering a space where people can meet, take time out and enjoy their coffee.”

Simon Carr, Acquisition Manager, Costa Coffee

“We are always looking for ways to enhance our community offer at The Liberty Romford, whether it’s across retail, leisure, or F&B. We are proud of our ability to attract some of the UK’s leading brands to the centre, and the signing of such a large Costa Coffee outlet is testament to this.”

Daniel Tucker, Leasing Manager, The Liberty Romford

Green & Partners and Cushman & Wakefield acted for Redical on the letting, with RAB Retail representing Costa Coffee.
