Costa Coffee in Christchurch

After completing our activities, a group of us had a very nice drink in the bar. The service was friendly and the staff very good. As the afternoon progressed, we had the displeasure of experiencing the 'jazz' group setting up. Whilst only a few of us were left, we were first asked to move tables as they wanted to reposition ours (by 90 degrees and 6 inches forward) then about 10 minutes later we were asked if we wished to continue our meeting elsewhere as they were ready for their guests and members to arrive. As we had nearly finished, we drank up and vacated, clearly not welcome. Consequently, we ended up in the Curlew, which is situated around the corner from the center. The staff were equally as friendly, the ale selection was a lot better and we ended up ordering food! Moral of the story... Go elsewhere after activities at the center!

(Takeaway) Quick and friendly service, nice and hot food, definitely recommend for those in the area who need a place for lunch / dinner

So ordered at 12 on the website to be delivered 45 mins later the tracker was showing at the prep stage so thought I’d call to see what’s happening to be told they were a driver short and when he was free my order would be made May be 20 more minutes so I said I’d cancel the order and that it would have been nice to know! So went out to go get something else for lunch. 1 25 pm I had a call ( 1 hour 25 mins after ordering ) to say the driver was at my house! Despite the fact I’d cancelled the order

Well. The location is nice. The service was friendly and timely. Unfortunately my milkshake arrived warm. £16 for a teeny piece of cod, mushy peas and about 20 dry chips is really not good enough. For the same you can get way more cod and chips elsewhere. Sorry. We left disappointed.

Bad bad bad...less than average food and very long waiting time. Misleading signs making you waste time in the drinks queue for a refill only to be told to move to the other queue because "they are busy" - then take off the sign ffs...you're better of somewhere else buying food and drinks
