Walked passed Wilkos today & noticed a new shop front being constructed in the unit accross from that shop that flogs 2nd hand guitars,stereos,TV's etc(don't know the name of the place-next to the cheap shoe shop),anyway i don't think its another phone shop as it looked like catering equipment of some sort had already been installed.Another Kebab shop is it?Anyone in the know?

Think there's any chance of a Starbucks opening up anytime soon? I'm quite partial to a triple-shot cappucchino on a Saturday lunchtime.

I'd never be away!, providing it was a place you could have a sit down in a sofa whilst listening to the nice relaxing music they play.

I'll do a deal , you take one of the 10 Starbucks within 2 miles of me and just give me one place to buy a steak pudding .

Starbucks the most overpriced , pretentious, soul destroying places on earth .

Can't be that classy, we've had one onsite at my works for ages now and they are opening a second one/juice bar in about 4 months.

Is that not the case with all that sort of stuff, Macdonalds, Wimpy, KFC etc... All this "Have a nice day" and " Would you like fries with your burger sir?" "Thankyou for calling".

Well, yeah, SJ, I take your point - they are a bit poncy, but for some reason I like 'em.

To be quite honest, these are the sort of caffs I REALLY enjoy

Classic Cafes | London's vintage Formica caffs!

but sadly, you can't find many of them up North.

We certainly dont need any more pie shops, though there's obviously a market for it, you can get a decent coffee at Over Coffee across from HSBC they also do a decent lunch.
