This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 5223 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £41,700, and Costa Coffee is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 5246 (Electrical service and maintenance mechanics and repairers, If work is mainly electrical appliance repair rather than mechanical plant maintenance.), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Costa Coffee what the duties actually are.
