What ever happened to buying a regular cup of coffee

in #coffee6 years ago (edited)

Our traditions

Hanna, the barrista poses for a quick photo for the blog. Oh, notice the tip jar.

Even though the cup of coffee might run you five dollars or more and they don't walk anywhere to get it. It is customary to give a tip.

We have drive throughs here so even on the road you get in line pull up and grab a cup.

This sign says it all. People buy whatever they make up. And it is cold outside when you might think something hot is tasty. Instead you see people buying icy coffee like this Gingerbread Caramelicious.

Max has the right idea. Just find somewhere to hide your head and sleep until the weather gets better.

I couldn't find him until I saw his tiny legs sticking out. lol

Nothing fancy.

Black coffee is the ONLY way to go. no sweeteners no dairy.

OMG I am so jealous of you. I love coffee and I just cannot take it black. I add cream. My husband also puts sugar. I drink it with just cream. I am not sure how to get myself to like it black.

Ah, Scooters. We don't have anything like it out in Michigan so when I came here to Kansas I was very confused by these tiny little places in the parking lots of strip malls and the like. But I mean there's one close by that is literally across the street from a Starbucks and is still in business so they must be doing well.

I am one of those odd people who orders cold coffee in cold weather, though. I did that once at a Panera just before going to march in the local Christmas Parade (so it was the middle of December) and the server looked at me like I was nuts and asked me twice if that's what I really wanted before accepting that yes, I did want the frozen cold coffee drink when there was four feet of snow outside and it was below freezing XD

LOL.. the Scooters originated here in Nebraska. SBUX tried to buy them out and they refused. I like both. We have both drive through ones and sit inside ones also. Crazy how many coffee places there are here.

You are in pretty good shape. I would freeze .. lol :)

TIPS =TO ENSURE PROPER SERVICE

I never knew this one. I know they work hard and lots of pressure. :)

I do coffee a lot but with so much sugar and other stuff that it is not real coffee, anymore. I call it moffee.

LOL I love it. Moffee it is.

Max is a little genius, follow his example! 💚

Animals seem to know the best thing to do when the weather changes. We are getting rain all day today with the temps in the 30's F

$5 for a coffee?? Crazy! I think the fair price is $1.

Well they can cost a little more or less, depends on the size and what you get.
Even regular black cover is going to run you close to 2 dollars.

The tip is usually a dollar. If more expensive coffee.

Lol!

The coffees you buy in France are small (expresso size) you can have it allongé which means it gets diluted with hot water. Now I have lived here for so long whenever I go back to UK I am surprised at how big the coffee is. A bucket of coffee!!!
