Mecky   10 #7 Posted March 11, 2011 Depends which coffee shop it is; if it's Bragazzis on Abbeydale Rd, Oyes at Woodseats or Remo at Broonhill then yes, I'd go. Megabucks or Costly coffee ... forget it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Guest sibon   #8 Posted March 11, 2011 no I dont want to sit in plastic starbucks with all the pretend snobs while we soon find out we have nothing to say sipping on a tall skinny roast bean latte mocha aka nestcafe but harder to make   I'm sort of with you there, I despise all of these coffee houses.  I do enjoy popping into Starbucks once in a while though, but only to say "Can I have a coffee, please" and then watch the utter confusion on the face of the staff. Try it, you'll love the response. It is almost as though not specifying which variant of coffee is so totally non-standard that they don't know how to respond.  Fancy a pint?

It is almost as though not specifying which variant of coffee is so totally non-standard that they don't know how to respond.  Fancy a pint?  me too!  i just want a coffee, it all tastes the same to me. i hate those places, i end up feeling like a prat when i tell them that i just want a mug of coffee, i dont care whatever fancy name they call it!  i tend to stick to the little independant cafes now, they know what a simple cup of coffee is and do nicer cakes!
