So I go to my local indie Coffee Shop today

[ianrauk]

for my once daily dose of Caffeine.
And they give me a christmas pressie.
Can't see Starbucks or suchlike doing such a thing.

The Hoy?

That is nice. Customer service still exists

Lummy, how much coffee have you drunk there?

Great stuff. Just goes to show supporting local, independent businesses is the right thing. My LBS is the place from where I get my accessories and repairs, rather than Evans from whom I bought it. (LBS is not a Cannondale dealier, hence going elsewhere for the initial purchase)

 

[ianrauk]

Lummy, how much coffee have you drunk there?

1 cup a day...4 days a week.
Plus the odd bit of carrot cake now and again.

The Hoy?

Yup.

I'm not sure what I was expecting the answer to be, but that doesn't strike me as an overly out of control coffee habit, so kudos to them for just being top at customer service!

Indeed. Surprised me too.
Had to check the coffee wasn't out of date lol.

Though I have been frequenting the place since it first opened.

Classic drug dealer move, insure you keep hooked whilst unable to purchase from them!

Still nice thought though :-)

Don't you mean a colander?

Yup.

Talking of local coffee places reminds me that I've never tried the coffee in Münüre's, towards the mouth of the creek. I once did a little bike fettling for the shop owner's daughter, also called Münüre (I don't know Turkish but I'm hoping he named the café after his daughter and not the other way round).

It's not bad in there.
Nice to sit outside on warm sunny days.
They do some cracking good sandwiches.

It's a shame they are not busier.
Apparently they took the place on the understanding that a bridge would be built over the Creek to the Wharf development.
But the developers welched on that one.
