Should they sell Tea and coffee in pubs

[MyPithyCat]

That'd be cool even in Winter and people still want to use the outdoor area.

This thread reminds me of one day when DC3 was still a baby. DCs 1 and 2, who were 10 and 9 at the time, were squawking, squabbling and fighting. I knew that DH was just down the road, walking home from the station. I thought, fuck this, put DC3 in the pram, and walked down to the local pub, where I ordered a cup of tea and biscuits and enjoyed a quiet sit down while DC3 slept in the pram beside me. DH managed our older pair admirably while I was away.

I often have a cuppa when at a pub quiz. My mum
alwars orders a cappuccino when we go out.

They have done for years…

Pub local to me is a traditional ale pub. Just crisps and beer. No tea/coffee, but the best bit is no kids allowed. Dogs are though.

Most do, but I’ve known a few busy ones to stop serving hot drinks in the evening / after food service has finished because nobody has got time to be faffing about with the coffee machine at 10pm when it’s 4 deep at the bar.

If I worked in public affairs at the pub landlord’s association and a focus group had revealed that tourists believed British pubs only served beer, this is the kind of thread I would start.

What’s happened to the OP?

So do the 'Spoons.

It's not exactly a rare thing, certainly not the unheard of thing the OP seems to think it is. After all, it's a cheap way of getting some money from people who don't drink alcohol all the time (or not at all).

The ones I frequent do, especially if they serve food 🍱

Have you been living under a rock OP?

I’m worried that OP started this thread, and is now furiously working away on a business plan and applying for Dragons Den…

Doesn’t Irish coffee have cream floating on top, not milk?

I'd prefer booze in a cafe tbh.

Yes totally agree with this

Yeah, there are some nice cafes where I live that also serve booze.

Sounds an excellent idea

Wellnthat happens as well. A few in our town do that

Get a Sports Direct mug. Although I think that is more than a pint!

Most do

I rarely drink and will often have a coffee or a hot chocolate

Probably. It was a long time ago. I just remember having to learn to pour it over the back of a spoon, and I wasn't very good at it. And they were a bloody pain to carry as they were balanced on a saucer they didn't really fit on, on a tray. And I was usually at least a little bit pissed by the time of night people wanted them, which possibly didn't help.

@MyPithyCat was your OP a genuine question? It’s been made completely clear on this thread that you likely haven’t been in a real British pub for several decades. Are you going to bother to reply or were you just after the clickbait replies?

why don’t you know that they do already OP?

Never been in a pub that doesn’t sell tea and coffee
