The Navigator in Christchurch - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Possibly the worst meal and biggest waste of money ever. My wife had said we should take a Tesco meal deal as no food on the plane, I said no, let’s have a pub lunch before we flat!. Well about 89 very disappointed pounds later I wish I did. Absolute shocker. Chicken and chorizo open sandwich, was a slice of half toasted bread, a couple of bits of chicken, half a dozen slices of chorizo, mayo, chilli sauce and rocket, looked like a toddler had put it together, ham and cheese toasty was dreadful, the fish finger sandwich was cold and the fish was poor, even the chips tasted funny, like sweaty feet as described by my daughter, never again.

Awful food, almost inedible.. but as we had a flight we needed to eat, cold burger and chips, meze dish which looked like it had been standing in the sun for hours, the dips hard in places all this for £26.00, no breakfast available and staff looking like they wanted to be somewhere else.. Will bring sarnies in future….

Dear oh dear 🙄 You are certainly a captive audience at Bmth Airport & if you want a pre-flight drink, be prepared for shockingly expensive drinks served in a messy airport bar/cafe !!! Definitely room for major improvement, especially if Bmth airport is going to get busier with extra flights.

20.45 on a sunday. Quiet so staff could have had time to be pleasant. But a male member of staff was sloppy, can't care less attitude and the coffee was horrible.

Totally overpriced, pint of lager and a green tea £11 . If that wasn't bad enough, it was empty when we arrived at about 4.15pm and the carpet and floor is disgusting, food and rubbish everywhere. I saw at least 4/5 staff on duty, who's in charge? So poor! No one seems to care.

This is s prime example of riping off customers in a captive market. It's the only place to eat airside. The food is edable, just and the prices are ridiculous for the quality. Bring your own food.

We arrived at Bournemouth Airport looking forward to having something to eat before our flight. I wasn’t expecting anything special and understand that as a captive audience prices will be high. However, the ham and cheese (£11.00) and cheese and tomato (£10.25) toasties we ordered were particularly poor value. The thin ham only half-filled the bread. I asked for a replacement and got the same amount in the next version. When I complained the barman got defensive and said it was the ‘spec’ of the sandwich. I asked him to pass my feedback to his bosses to improve the ‘spec’. Btw, the other toastie only had 2 thin tomato slices. The chips that accompanied each toastie were okay. I’m happy to pay their prices as long as they make some effort to provide vale but this was taking the p*ss. I suggest you bring your own food or do the meal deal at WH Smith. It’s bound to be better.

When you’re the only cafe in an airport departure lounge, you don’t need to try that hard !!! As it’s the only cafe the queues are long, they could do with more staff. Plenty of seating,which is an obvious positive. Food & drink is just what you’d expect at an airport 🙄

Lovely selection of the menu,amazing coffe and great service! I have ordered coffee for me and my friends well made abd so delicious thanks to everyone who helped today!

Good service. Michaela was really friendly and cheerful. Really nice food. Good selection of gin. Great way to start my holiday!

Friendly service & the best hot chocolate I’ve had for a while. Would recommend if flying from Bournemouth

Always good breakfast and good service . The cuppacino they do is made to perfection. The atmosphere is always good.

It does make me chuckle reading some of these scathing reviews! We've flown from Bournemouth for years (local airport) and generally celebrate the start of our holiday with a glass of bubbles and a bacon sandwich in the Navagator. Yes the food is sub-standard (but edible) and you probably need a credit rating of 999 to apply for the mortgage you'll need to afford your meal - but we've always found the staff pleasant and accommodating, the food has always been quick to appear and YOUR ON HOLIDAY - Cheer up!!! If you don't want to spend the £45 on a couple of beers and a bacon sandwich then pop into Smiths next door for a meal deal!

We arrived at the airport for a 630am flight. The bar was open, just. While waiting to be served, a lady ahead of me asked about food and was told it would be 5 or so minutes. Another member of staff appeared and the staff member asked him if she could out ot through the til. His response was, if you must. I coild hear this much further back. Not what you want to hear from a service that is there to cater for customers of flight that are scheduled to leave at that time.e. uts not as if it was un expected . Once more passengers came through, additional staff were slow to help take bar orders. Not the best experience

The worst breakfast I have ever had, cold cheap eggs. £30 for a vile breakfast avoid. It’s like breakfast a dog would eat.

Lovely breakfast. Lovely staff. Delivered to my table by a really nice waitress. Now ready for my holiday!

Came for breakfast this morning with partner before our flight to Alicante breakfast was quick and delicious. We were served by Mihaela Thank you

Nice restaurant and bar at the airport - it was quite busy but we got our food quickly... the staff were very friendly - Paul brought our food and he was very helpful....

If you want to eat or drink buy double of everything because you won't get served a second time, lack of staff

Pretty shocking after ordering the vegetarian breakfast and the brunch breakfast with a pint of Peroni and Mermaid Gin totaling £43!! When the meals came out, it was shocking for what we paid. It was basically sub Wetherspoons where the same would've cost around £15-18 and for more. The only thing missing from the staff serving is a mask and a shotgun when clearly robbing people before their holiday.....

Before our flight to Gran Canaria we decided to order a portion of chips because we felt a little bit peckish. Don’t go in with high expectations: it’s nothing to get your holiday started of on a high! The staff are pleasant but the food not so much, it’s all extremely overpriced and incredibly average. The chips where not very fluffy and were quite hard! I advise you like we thankfully did was to stop off at M&S on the way and pick up your favourite sarnie, we are so glad we were did, now that was tasty!

We had a snack/ meal prior to boarding the flight to Greece. Tables dirty, cutlery unwashed, floors with debris on it….staff appeared to be on “another planet “ We ordered a burger meal and a small plate chicken goujons. £9.25 for 3,yes,3 small breaded goujons!!!!!…cold and no dip served and filthy cutlery. Terrible burger meal too, cold and so tasteless
