It’s certainly been worth opening for February half term. It’s very cold but the weather has stayed dry so families, grandparents, dogs have all ventured out. A hot chocolate at the end of a walk has been very welcome. We now add cream and marshmallows if desired - we’ve called it a Witley Works.
Yesterday a man approached the counter.
“Could we have a couple of coffees for outside?” he asked, “we’ve got a dog.”
I told him he could bring the dog inside as long as it was on a lead. Out of the cold.
He skipped back to tell his partner and they sat near the window having ordered a cappuccino and a chamomile tea.
I took the drinks to their table. To be honest I wasn’t terribly proud of the froth on the coffee. It was pitiful. But when I put it down in front of him I had a response I’ve never had before.
“Cosmic,” he said.
I pointed out he hadn’t tasted it yet.
