    If I owned a Coffee Shop/Cafe

    I would limit tables to 30 minutes for drinks and 45 minutes for food. Ever go into places like Nero and tables are all full with:

    Some t wat with a lap top who probably has one coffee in 2 hours

    One t wat sitting at a table for four or more

    Two women gossiping for hours and have one drink per hour

    I would be horrible if I was the owner and kick all these f uckers out for people who spend money and I would ban any t wat coming in from the street to use the loo!

    I'd stop any cafe owner from managing Stourbridge FC.

    The present manager is ex Blues player Mark Yates who also owns a cafe in Bewdley.........if his food is anything like his football team you'd spend all night throwing up!

    Yet another hammering today, funnily enough at Peterborough Sports.......8-4.( I could've doubled up if I'd thought about it! )

    At one point it was 6-1 so this was something of a comeback!

    The bloke is absolutely clueless and has ruined all the work put in by Gary Hackett when he was manager.

    Stick to making latte's Yates you useless t w a t!

    Morning Al - reading your post you'd probably have no punters as that's probably every category of customer I see when I walk into one

    I have the same view about any service like a café, or pub for that matter. As a self-employed person i tend to see the café from both sides, the business person as well as the customer.
    No disrespect to the many considerate people who work in the public sector or those who are employed but for many people they don’t actually get that it’s a business and treat it like a public service.
    Mind you most people are out for what they can get and by evolution selfish and inconsiderate anyway.

    If I used your cafe I'd be there to eat, drink and go. Same as I am on the rare occasions I use any other cafe. If eat, drink and go meant a thirty plus minutes visit that would be down to your poor levels of service on account of you spending so much time whingeing you belligerent old fish wife.

    Service and chop chop 😉 !?!

    Back as a student I worked in a bar, could be busy as hell and some old biddy would come up and ask for a tea or coffee! FFS it’s a pub if you want a coffee bugger off to a cafe! Used to piss me right off, most times we had no hot water 😀

    All you need to do is clear the cup's and plate's as soon as they are empty. Ask them if they enjoyed it, then ask if they would like anything else.
    If they say no thanks take the towel and pretend you are swatting crumbs off the table.
    You'll never make a businessman Al.😉
