Default Sticks - Bucks - The new coffee shop

It seems the dirty tricks of competitors to Boris Bar have got it closed on trumped up charges

So after raiding my cupboard for my coffee machine, perculator, caffeteres, teapots et al

Plus a quick trip to the cash and carry, I have managed to get this shop on short term let to run as a coffee shop.

So
Cappuchino
Frappuchino
Americano
Mocha
Expresso

Have managed to get a radio tuned to
Jazz FM or Classic FM (Which ever takes your fancy)

A large Cappucino please Sticks and some nice smoothing Classic FM music - I need something to calm me down after the very annoying call I have just had from my Estate Agent

Did you get any sticky buns from the Cash and Carry cos I'll have one of those as well - what diet?!!!!!

and btw I have heard from my contacts that the authorites are feeling a bit red in the face at the moment cos they realise they have been taken in by the tales they were told by Boris's opposition. BB is about to be granted it's licence back and you will find a different local establishment is in BIG trouble.

Sorry but I have to see a bakery supply for the "danish pastries"

I picked up some of these


From a farmers market and we hope to ship in these



sorry about the paucity of the fare, but this has been a rush job since the demise of Boris Bar.

Shame really, I was going to suggest we add a coffee bar section in.

I was very upset last Saturday to find that my favourite coffee shop, Cafe Republic in Newcastle has closed down

Just spotted this - I do hope once Borris is back in business we can incorporate the coffee shop, ideal for Saturday morning shoppers

I'm sure we will be able to do that Sticks. A nice coffee shop with comfy sofas and newspapers to read makes Saturday shopping so much nicer.

I presume those are Mince Pies Sticks, if so I'll have one, it'll be my first this year

You can't trust ANYONE these days can you ...

Oh Sticks to take all my customers just when we were getting going. I call that a dirty trick....and by the way my cup is dirty too. Not a good advert for your coffee shop !

Sure we can not have the coffee shop as party of the bar, nowe that it looks like t=it is back in opperation. It would prove quite popular

As to clientel, those frequenting a coffee shop are not usually those that frequent the bar, so I did not think it was poaching trade

I do think you are over-reacting a bit Boris, I'm sure Sticks was only trying to help out in a crisis. Still, I don't blame you being a bit testy after the day you've had defending your reputation, which of course has come out totallly unscathed.

The capucinno was excellent, but that doesn't mean I won't be joining you at the bar later for a nice glass of Red
