Columbus Coffee reviews
57Awesome coffee and amazing friendly team. Always ask how the day/morning has been and always down for a laugh. Incredible food whether you’re vegetarian, keto, paleo, gluten free, dairy free. They also have the coolest keep cups as well. Always accomodating for any requirements too. Love these guys ️
This place is the best ever. The drinks are always perfect and the food is delicious. However, the thing that sets this place above others is the personal superb service. As a regular, you are always acknowledged by your name and a pertinent question about your life. The genuineness and caring about you as a person is pretty unique and special. Thanks to you all.
Just like to thank you so much to the lovely staff at this location that went above and beyond to help, They helped make sure Service and the food was delicious! Would highly recommend for best breakfast and highly Trained and friendly staff. Thanks again!
My favourite spot! Chan, Suds and the team are fantastic. They are always welcoming and friendly and have been relentlessly enthusiastic through these challenging COVID times. The food and coffee is always great too.
Honestly the friendliest staff and such a great environment to get together with mates for the most amazing coffee! Thanks to the team at Columbus who simply make good coffee happen!:)
St. Johns Columbus is consistently excellent! Staff are friendly, the coffee is great, the cabinet is always filled with amazing goodies. Very happy to work so close so I get to enjoy this café daily.
Columbus Glen Innes is fantastic! To find a cafe as consistently good as this one is very rare. The coffee is always delicious, the menu is great and they have gone above and beyond by creating special paleo and keto dietary items to have in their display cabinet so there is something for everyone!
The staff are all amazing, every time I visit, I am greeted with a friendly hello and they really show a genuine interest in their customers which can be hard to find these days. They even make a fuss of my 2 year old son who simply loves coming in for a fluffy and a little cuddle with the ladies!
Well done Columbus GI team, you are simply the best and should all be so proud of yourselves. Keep up the awesome work and I will see you again soon!
You really can’t go wrong here. Consistently great coffee, an awesome, varied, tasty menu and super high standards for themselves, which they routinely surpass. Friendly customer service, with an awareness of regular customers orders and lives, a willingness to chat and a real human touch that never makes you feel like you’re just the next order in line.
This is my neighbourhood local - and why would you go anywhere else when your local is so great?
The BEST team ever at Columbus, Glen Innes.
Awesome bunch of people. They go above and beyond for their customers.
Excellent live music Sunday lunch with the Peter Wood Trio. Good menu and generous servings. Excellent service and staff. Easy off street parking. Great value.
Wanted to say thank you so much to the lovely staff at this location that went above and beyond to help with my dairy allergy. They helped make sure my breakfast had no dairy and the food was delicious! Would highly recommend this location for anyone that has food allergies or not. Thanks again!
Ordered a large latte and a large mocha in takeaway cups. Both coffee were very blend with no taste. I went back to counter and asked if the coffee were one shot only, they confirmed me that they were two shots each.
I said they hardly have any taste, tasted like too much milk and water. They first asked have I drank it, I said yes (of course I have! What kind of question is this? If I didn't how would I know the taste?). They then asked did I drink much? I then gave the guy to hold the cups to let him judge on how much is too much or not much. He hold the cups and asked do I want an extra shot to add in to the cups (to me, that's not a good customer service at all! Don't even mention about great service!). I said how does that work, wouldn't it not being hygienic at all? I didn't ask to get new ones made, which I should have, but I thought this should be an instantaneous thing to ask by any shop/Cafe to offer the service right to redeem their own reputation to take care of their customers, not by asking do I want to put an extra shot in my two cups of
half cold coffee!). In the end I left for him to deal with my order. He came back with added shots, not newly made coffees. My wife have another drink and she said it tasted bad, totally not what she'd expected and certainly didn't taste like mocha any more. She left the coffee on the table without drinking it again. We then left the shop, felt disgust about the whole experience.
Coffee itself costs less than $2, the margin the coffee shops make is very huge. I just don't understand how hard to get us new freshly made coffee to get customers happy and back for more?
Won't go back there again, and would ask my network not to go there if they want bad experience on any good day!
I was not impressed with the service here. I ordered a flat white with marsh mellows. The lady refused to give me the marsh mellows. She said if she gave them to me she would have to give to others.
This is not a classroom but a business. It is important to give the paying customer what they want within reason. Whilst it was a small request I acted on principle by walking out.
I will never go again, and find their coffees too expensive anyway.
Not as good as the last time.all the meals were smaller then the last time we were there and the food came at different times
The smoothie (detox) is terrible, when I have a smoothie I expect it to be more than some "fruit" and water. And the scones are just plain bad. The only redeeming factor is the people, they are pretty nice.
Alsome im ae Card holder My
Self I get Lost of Rewards but its
The companies & who ever ure with is the rewarding part of going there
Our coffees were cold - I think the cups are too thick and this sucks the heat out of the beverage and their new pies are ghastly. Not at all flaky but just incredibly doughy.
It's gone downhill following the change in ownership. Dropped in today and it was empty which tells you everything. All the paleo, vegetarian and gf options are gone and the new food was not great. Unfortunately its just another average columbus now.
Changed ownership a few weeks ago and has slid downhill very fast. Today hot chocolate was served cold (twice in 10 days) and a lady at neighbouring table said she had been served a cold coffee last week. Banana loaf was uncooked. I refused a refund or replacement item because it was a minor issue. Replacement hot chocolate was literally slammed down on our table with no apology making my daughter jump with fright. When I approached the new owner expressing that I was a long standing and regular customer for 8 years and told her of my bad experiences of my last 2 visits in just a week, she ripped into me and criticized me for my very brief conversation with lady at neighbouring table. Left with a very sour taste in my mouth and we won't be back. Dannee and Jigisha Patel, you are sorely missed. I can't recall ever having had to return a cold hot chocolate or complain about anything in 8 years.
I was here with my friend for Brunch. Good food and great customer service. The ambience was quite good too. Their Japanese Green tea is a must try! Would highly recommend!
