This week Costa Coffee and Cleland and Souchet Wine Café cut the ribbon to their brand new stores at Malta International Airport’s Departures area. Together they share a large and beautiful space which is partly a Costa Coffee shop and partly a Cleland and Souchet wine café. 

This marks Costa Coffee’s 7th store opening in Malta but this time with a slightly different ambience to the other stores around the Island. The decor takes you back to the 70’s with its retro colours and furnishings and its counter and service points have been designed to maximise efficiency and speed of service as much as possible. 

Dr. Robert Buttigieg, general manager of Costa Coffee Malta said; “We are thrilled with our new coffee shop in the Departures area at MIA. This is our largest store yet and like our other stores feels like a home away from home with its open plan and comfortable seating. Travellers can relax and enjoy our range of quality coffee and food before their flight in a warm and welcoming environment. It is the perfect spot for coffee lovers to kill some time before a flight”.  

Richard Cleland, Director of Cleland and Souchet, said; "We are absolutely delighted to open our second C&S Wine Café outlet this time in the Departures area at MIA and we very much look forward to bringing our Cleland & Souchet "wine café" concept to the international travelling public. Our aim is to provide our discerning clients with fresh, healthy, tasty meals and light snacks accompanied by a superior offering of drinks, including an exceptional 20 quality wines and Champagnes by the glass.  For our new airport outlet, we have also added a sushi and sashimi offering to the seafood specials that we are known for at our original Wine Cafe in Portomaso”.  

Costa Coffee and C&S Wine Café have added a stunning new area for travellers flying out of Malta to drink, dine and lounge in the Departures area at MIA. Markus Klaushofer, CEO of MIA commented by saying “With the opening of another Costa Coffee outlet within the terminal, we have embellished our Schengen Departures Area further. This, coupled with the opening of the adjacent Cleland & Souchet Wine Café, has enhanced the travel experience for our passengers at Malta International Airport.”
