This is a perfectly located Starbucks. It’s opposite the RB hospital and part of the hotel. It also serves the Village Leisure facilities so there are plenty of reasons to visit it! The range of drinks and food options are typical of a Starbucks. What makes this one special are the amazing baristas! They are effectively managed by Evie and every one is pleasant and helpful. I’m a regular, so they know my preferences. A quick chat if they’re not too busy and then I am able to enjoy my favourite decaf cappuccino. Magic!!

Excellent service from a very friendly team. A good choice of drinks and snacks are available. A very welcome stopping-off point after using the gym and pool facilities.

I regularly drive here, the staff are so friendly, polite and incredibility helpful the atmosphere is good and the wifi and other facilities, being in a hotel are unsurpassed. I go to do some work, meet up or just chill out on my own, I highly recommend it, I drive past many alternatives, just to come here.

After asking for a decaf drink and telling them I have a heart condition so can NOT have caffeine. I was offered a tea can’t have tea that’s got caffeine then offered a hot chocolate can’t have one that’s got decaf in it. If you are going to offer drinks in a cafe. You have to be aware of caffeine in it. I decide maybe I’d try a pink coconut starbucks refresha. It was so weak and no flavour. They had no idea about what drinks have no caffeine

I visit this Starbucks once or twice a week when I go to the gym. While it is more expensive than high street Starbucks and doesn’t do special offers, gift cards etc., it is convenient with a nice atmosphere and always friendly, efficient customer service from Margida and Evie who I see most often :)

I visit Starbucks two or three times a week after classes.The staff are friendly and very helpful at all times I love their coffee and as I’m a choosy about my coffee I rate Starbucks blends It can be busy as the hotel has a steady stream of visitors but staff are efficient in site of the pressure It’s good to see friendly faces each time and feel welcome Thanks you to Evie,Edith and Margritta.

Great coffee, service bit slow and don’t get the seating in cafe it’s like long benches and as we’re under Covid just think that’s not good as your pretty close to each other. Plenty of cakes to choose from though. Would go again as the coffee was excellent.

After visiting asked for a decaf coffee- due to an allergy to caffeine. Was assured that this coffee was decaf to then consume this and had a reaction. Thankfully this allergy is not severe, no accommodating at all.

Great service, great coffee, and a useful bolt hole if you need a break from the nearby Bournemouth hospital (or Crown Court!) for a real coffee and a sandwich. As part of the hotel/leisure club it doesn’t have the same feel as a high street branch and is really pleasant.

You know what you going to get here and this is an ideal place for a business meeting. There’s bags of parking outside the hotel and plenty of place inside to have a meeting over Starbucks coffee. Best avoided at rush hours as access from the Littledown roundabout can be frustrating.

Once a regular at coffee bars, I tend to only visit this one on a regular basis since it has continued to be the best in my opinion. That is largely due to the welcoming and helpful staff who go out of their way to serve, interact and help you out in a friendly professional way. The venue is not the most relaxing but there are quieter times if that is something you want. There’s a good mix of seating options and a standard range of choices at the counter. For me, it says a lot when large groups meet up and linger over their refreshments, but the main appeal is the way the staff engage with customers that makes it stand out.

This seems better than the average Starbucks! The team are very approachable and friendly whilst still being efficient. There is plenty of space as you can sit in the hotel lobby as well as the Starbucks area. One review says this is a franchise and so not directly owned by Starbucks -- perhaps this is the reason why it seems better than the average!

In a convenient location, close to Royal Bournemouth Hospital, this Starbucks is a good pick-you-up.

A better sociable service from any other coffee franchise I don't think is possible. Alex, Edith and the wonderful ladies and gents who serve at the Village Starbucks in Bournemouth are the best. A warm greeting, remembering what you like, chatting and prompt service keeps me coming back time after time. The coffee and food isn't bad either, with a good choice, some promotions and occassion tastings too. The only let down is the hard seating when the soft seats are taken.

Wish I'd read these reviews before going with my son for a long overdue catch up. Shocking service. Absolutely shocking. Lovely smiling waitresses giving the impression nothing was too much trouble. It clearly was far too much trouble. It's as if immediately you request something the delete button activates in the waiting staff. We ordered the following: tap water, egg mayonnaise sandwich, chicken sandwich and fries. Shouldn't be beyond most cafes to get sorted. After 20 mins no water which meant I had to go up ask for it again - not withstanding it as it was a very very warm day (despite being October!) and we were outside. After 30 minutes no lunch, asked where it was. Finally rocked up - and to my horror they toasted my bread for my egg mayo sandwich. Why? I wasn't asked if I wanted it toasted. OH - and no choice of brown or white bread. Chips were nice. Sandwich OK. My son liked his sandwich. Only one loo which wasn't particularly pleasant. Really don't bother. There are plenty of other options nearby. Wish we'd gone with the Caribbean option we looked at first.

Camden in Westbourne is a great spot for a night out with friends or a casual dinner. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, and the staff is friendly and attentive. The drink selection is impressive, with a wide variety of beers, wines, and cocktails. The food is also delicious, with a menu that features everything from small plates to hearty entrees. Here are a few highlights from my experience: * The beer selection is amazing! There are so many different types to choose from, and they're all well-kept. * The cocktails are also delicious and creative. * The food is fresh and flavorful. I had the fish and chips, and it was cooked to perfection. * The staff is friendly and attentive. They make sure you have everything you need and that your experience is enjoyable. Overall, I had a great time at Camden in Westbourne. It's a great place to go for a drink, a bite to eat, or just to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. I highly recommend it!
