anyone know were the the best place is to go for coffee

I must consider getting one of these machines, coffee's my favourite thing but I never heed the warning.....

I used to like Starbucks for their iced coffee but now all the chains have taken over, stifling the small, independent tea & coffee shops, I hunt for those smaller places. Sick of seeing American chains taking over, now there's even a Wendy's opened up in the city.

Was actually looking for one last night & found another local had opened up, will be trying it later today.

I used to only have the very occasional Starbucks, as nowhere else did iced coffee at the time. Shame that you never go out further afield. At least Gus gets you out.

Never made it out to try the coffee shop, the lift still wasn't working, so no vet visit for Hattie either, they were very good, so there tomorrow. As the little girl next door has just been around to say the lift is actually working.

I'm really sorry you had a difficult experience. I actually had my first solo train journey in my wheelchair & first solo trip to London, I'm thankful that from start to finish, it went very smoothly. I'm now planning a second when the price is right. Er…were you a bad driver? 😜 There have been a couple of moody grunters & ramp slammers, but the majority are brilliant. The busses though, now that's a different story.

Managed to get to the coffee shop today, staff were lovely. They had some wonderful droolworthy cakes, that I did't have, just drooled! The coffee was good & the bonus was, I could sit outside in the sun to drink it. 😎 Oh & it's dog friendly, he asked if Hattie could have a treat & he then grabbed up a dog treat jar & gave her a couple. 👌 Will be returning. Definitely worth trying an independent coffee shop.
