Are there medals for bandwagon jumping? There isn’t even anywhere to plug the bastard things in while eating your caviar panini and drinking your single source coffee made from beans processed through the digestive tract of a rare jungle cat!

What is the world coming to… grumble, moan, etc, etc…

TBF that is 'Peak Weymouth' in my book; the scenario I envisage for most customers is that Derek and Joyce get distracted and lose the rest of their meandering, septuagenarian crew on the Rodwell Trail and have somehow found themselves down by the harbour.

They're happy to accept the hefty markup for a coffee as it comes with a nice view and the use of a plug. They will attempt to call their lost buddies and accidentally direct them to an entirely different cafe, thus generating income for someone else too. 

They are in fact only about 400m from where they parked the Volvo, Derek will fake a back injury putting the bikes back in the car so he doesn't have to do anything till NYE.

The number of lost pensioners aimlessly knocking about there is the only thing that keeps half the places in Weymouth going.

It's a bit like Monty Python's cheese shop. No Ebikes to be seen.

Or maybe in the words of the Bonzo Dog Band "that's just the name of the shop dear".

That’s probably true of a lot of places these days! Speaking from experience…

I haven’t been to Weymouth since I was at school, used to stay in a friends caravan at Bowleaze Cove. Doubt it’s much different to most seaside towns these days though.

How come there's 2 tables occupied and no refreshments in front of them? It's all a bit Truman Show...

Apparently they sell and service ebikes :

https://ebikecafe.co.uk/#1624881890862-3bc3afb8-3152

Their menu is pretty much as I expected:

MOROCCAN BOWL – Served warm with couscous, chilli flakes, butternut squash, kale, beetroot, black beans, falafel, dressed with mint yoghurt, olive oil, pumpkin seeds & Moroccan spices (V) (add chicken 3.00)(vegan available – no yoghurt)

Although their "coffee" is even more bizarre than I expected :

Beetroot Latte (Beet powder, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon) A nutrient-rich elixir (DF, VE, N) – Contains Nuts

How much do you have to hate coffee to put all that shite in it? Or am I falsely assuming that "beetroot latte" has anything to do with coffee? I have never heard of such a thing.

I hope they weren't over charged for the signage (and horrible font), the design is shocking.

And I thought I was exaggerating! ‘Kin’ell!
I’ve got access to just shy of 400 emojis, and I can’t even find one that adequately sums up my feelings about this!

2 Things

1) I like that TJs doesn't bother with fancy coffee, it is just food and a bar.

2) Are emojis back on the forum? 🙂

I thought a Cock Parasol was something that you wore in Cap d'Agde to stop you burning the old chap.

I thought it was a medical treatment for certain 'gentleman's infections '
