Do you want to go for a coffee?

Recommended Posts

I took a trip into Holland and Barett today they do sell it:).Looks vile though.

 

Maybe I'll ask them to mail me a couple of bottles. I like to take a trip down memory lane occasionally.

im sick of being asked this when seing people in town I know!!

 

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

 

would I want to go for 8 pints yes

 

would I want to go chase some stray dogs while dressed as elvis yes

 

do I want to go on a whisky themed night and make some prank phone calls yes

 

but I dont want to waste a hour drinking coffee oreyt!!!!

 

and how many coffee shops do we NEED?

 

I would have been happy with just the one...Pollards...

I think it is - me and a mate used to go there for a coffee sometimes. We went again and it had changed to 'Yorkies' -still quite nice though

yes, it's been shut a while, Esme.

 

I think it's reopened as a cafe, but I can't swear to it.

First coffee shop I remember going in was just off Briggate in 1991ish, a very early Costas. I like any coffee shop but tend to always go for a mocha anyway.

My dad freaks at the price of tea in coffee shops. You can see him mentally working out what one bag of PG Tips costs from tesco :hihi:

My first coffee shop was the Matabeau (not in Sheffield). It was decorated in varying tones of beige with red-topped plastic tables, lots of chrome, ashtrays on every table, inedible food and incredibly strong coffee.

 

I thought I was the height of sophistication drinking coffee in there alone at age 16 with my Marlboro reds and my copy of On the Road.

there is a small corner of sardinia that will be extremely sad to hear that, my ex's brother absolutely adored the breakfasts in there, breakfast was the first english word he learned
