Costa - North Dorset

Good coffee as you would expect, however zero character and very very noisy especially when filled with kids in pushchairs. There are better cafes in town.

Ordered on the app all went through went to the shop to collect was abruptly told my drink wasn't going to be ready as there machine dealing with orders was down and not working told I'd have the money back within 24h well 2 weeks later still haven't had the money back as through the app told me my drink was ready to collect not that there was an issue even after contacting to make a complaint had no reply at all not impressed with the service at all

Very disappointing visit. Firstly staff came across as vague and uninterested. I was given a dirty fork and when I went back to change it I was handed the fork with the staff holding the eating end with no gloves on YUK no thank you. The marshmallows were literally old and sticky. My toastie was very soggy when I received it as it had beef left to sweat on a cold plate. Lastly the floor was absolutely disgusting, bits of food everywhere. I will not be back unfortunately.

Blandford Costa is very spacious yet it is still possible to find a corner to hide in! I mostly visit solo to write. I'm always greeted with smiles, laughter positive energy from every member of staff. They work exceptionally well as a team. If there is ever a queue, the staff always get through it quickly. The team work incredibly hard. They get me ready for the day, coffee is just a bonus! Blandford Costa is definitely the cleanest Costa I have visited. If there is a Costa Award, the Blandford team deserve it.

I went to this restaurant with my 11-year-old son, partner, and 15-year-old step-daughter. The berry hot chocolate was unexpectedly delicious and both my son and I enjoyed it. The service was excellent! The friendly server offered to replace the hot chocolate if I didn't like it. In addition to the hot chocolate, we also tried some Tiffin, chocolate shortbread, and brownie, all of which were incredibly tasty. And don't forget about the sugar-free cola bottles. This coffee shop is truly amazing, the best in town!
