To a certain coffee place:
What the hell happened to you? I used to enjoy spending time with you. Your sandwiches used to fill me up and get me through my day. Your coffee helped to wake me up and your employees used to make me laugh when I was down.
Now your sandwiches are full of wilted lettuce and not much else. Your coffee still wakes me up, but only if I have 15 or more minutes to kill waiting for it. Half of your employees are so over the top with fake niceness they make me cringe and the other half look like they are unfamiliar with personal hygiene practices.
Over priced bad food and slow, fake service? No thanks!
There are other cafes in the area…the walk will do me good.

Lookee here, poster. It’s one of the mysteries of the universe, don’t ask me why… but while you can’t name particular businesses here in the bitch section, you can go just four navigation bars to the right and go directly to the named restaurant/cafe/bar/whatever and write your own review.
did you notice ethat their tea biscuits got smaller as well fuck, i go to the coffe shop with a “bird” for their name.
wonder how big the coffee industry’s bailout will be…
and whether it will be all in quarters.
i <3 the tea biscuits!
We’re allowed to name corporation names right?
Cause every time I make the mistake of going to a Tim Hortons if I make the mistake of ordering anything other than a double double, they mess it up (thats two cream, one sugar, yes, thats what I said, no not a double double). Uhm but yeah… that was a tangent… what I meant to say was every time Ive bought a large French Vanilla there lately its been garbage – as is expected, but its also only been filled to the 3/4 mark. Around the point where the arrow head starts on the cup.
Blame it on the economy, I guess. Ill just make my own damned coffee.
