Has anyone had a cuppa at the NEW Green Tree coffee shop on Orchard Street, Fearnhead?

 

You can chill out like they do in Friends.

tried a few of these new "coffee" house places.

they don't half give you a funny look if you ask for coffee.

"we have cappuccino, mocha, latte, latte mocha, mochaccino, cappa latte" " i just want a cup of coffee" "we have etc etc"

finally you get those huge soup bowls half full of froth that go cold before you have a chance to get to the "coffee"

 

Mrs sid and i went to one in the new mall and got a "coffee, a chocolate and a toasted cheese and ham sandwhich (Mrs sid was a bit peckish), i almost told them to forget it when they said eight quid. i could feed four at McDonald's for less than that.

for six fifty i can get some decent mince that will let me make at least six meals out of it.

 

big rip off as far as i am concerned.

Well I had a nice pot of tea at 120p (sorry can't get the pound sign to work) and I was tempted to have a cake or something but I looked at my belly and thought NO Way I'm preggers.

 

You also get two trees on your loyalty card. I've emailed Gary to say that there's room for the odd WWW magazine. Now that might entise you or not?

Reminds of my friend, an Oxford graduate, who showed us round the city. Went into a cafe under a mens outfitters, and he asked for a tea.

 

"Assam, Darjeeling, Earl Grey, Green Tea?"

 

"As close to Typhoo as you've got please!"

Nice one Vic.

 

I got a nice Beanie hat last month when I bought a big box of Typhoo.
