A 40-seater Costa Coffee shop has opened at Plymouth Golf Centre, in a move that could benefit both organisations. The golf centre, a modern 33-bay driving range, invested ‘a significant amount of cash’ to build the branch, which has created nine jobs. Jonathan Philpotts, director at Plymouth Golf Centre, said the centre was looking to increase its food and drink offering, having been relying on vending machines. After seeing a Costa outlet at another driving range he decided to write to Costa to see if a franchise could be set up. In all about 30 people work at the centre spread across the golfing operation, the store and now the Costa.
