I think the modern cafe actually encourages this type of clientele and use of their facilities. They market themselves to professionals who are prepared to spend a daft amount on a mediocre coffee.
So I dont think this will change at all. Simple answer is to go somewhere else with decent coffee and doesn't tolerate this type of thing. |

Trouble is if people are struggling to get free tables already, then people in the queue will grab a free one while someone else stays in the queue to get their coffee etc.
Doesn’t make it easy on everyone in the queue in front of the person buying the coffee etc, but it’s easy to see why it happens. |

This happened to us once and the guy was in the seats in front of us. So we just started talking to eachother in really loud voices until he turned to us to ask us to be quiet! ….. you can imagine my reply to him... and no I didn't swear. A few passengers clapped once he then turned his ipad off.

I travel by train a lot and get to hear alot of "half converdations" between people on their way home and their other halves
Once the man was speaking so loudly into the phone about what to have to tea when he ended the call I said to him "hmmm...Chinese that's a good call". He took exception to this and said I shouldn't listen into private conversations at which point I suggested he may want to review the meaning of the word "private"

I went to visit my mum in hospital last week and went I to Costa for a drink as I was too early for visiting hours.
I managed to find a table so sat down. Tables were full of hospital staff, as you would expect, however they were sat eating their lunch out of foil, tupperware boxes etc and also brought their own juice/water bottles. They were not purchasing from Costa at all. There was also an M&S and some were buying food there and bringing it over to Costa to eat! Some customers had nowhere to sit as all the tables were taken. Whilst I appreciate all NHS staff and the job they do, it seems wrong that they are treating Costa as a picnic area! Edited at 11:16 AM. |
