All I Want is a Coffee!

That sounds so simple. After almost six weeks of travelling, we have certainly learned that not all coffee is the same. Not all fast food restaurants are fast. Last night was one of our more aggravating coffee stops. I'll not name the fast food restaurant, but will state that they do promote their coffee. We entered the restaurant. There were other customers present who had also ordered meals or drinks. Coffee was ordered at 8:17 PM. (I checked the printed receipt.) The coffee was paid for. It was 8:27 PM when we were finally presented with our two senior coffees. We ask for cream on the side, because invariably too much cream is added, but for some reason, cream on the side is rarely accompanied by a stir stick. This morning we went to the same restaurant and the coffee service was within a minute....much more acceptable. Over the last six weeks, many of the coffees served have been tepid, rather than hot....sometimes the cup is full.....sometimes almost an inch from the top of the cup. Prices too, have varied from as low as $0.39 -$3.90 per small cup of take out coffee. I think I could write a book about coffee and coffee service. The photo was taken a week or so ago, and does not represent the slow service.
