This Costa sits within Christchurch Retail Park on Bailey Drive rather than on the high street. It occupies Unit 8C, BH23 2BN, alongside the retail park's other shops on the edge of town.
Coffee between shops
As with every Costa branch, the standard Costa Coffee menu applies: espresso drinks, teas, cold drinks and a food-to-go selection of sandwiches, pastries and cakes, either at a table inside or in a takeaway cup to carry to the next unit. It suits being folded into a shopping trip rather than being the reason for the journey.
How it fits with the other branches
Four Costa branches around Bournemouth and Christchurch appear in this guide; the other three are in the town centre, Southbourne and Boscombe. This one stands apart from them geographically, out on the retail park fringe rather than next to the historic priory and quay. Should you be continuing into old Christchurch afterwards, the priory, the quay and Mudeford are a short drive away; our Christchurch area guide has more. For other cafés and places to eat in the area, see the rest of our food & drink guide.
