9 seeds is one of my favourite cafes. Always amazing food and service. But today there was one major thing that let them down: the music selection.
See, ordinarily the music is great. Today, however, Taylor Swift was making her racket on the speakers.
Now, it wouldn't be a problem if it was one, maybe two songs. But that wasn't the case, old chum. Because Taylor was playing for the entire duration of my lunch.
You might say, I'm unreasonable and that Taylor is not completely terrible. And to that I say, poppycock. Never has there been a more unsuitable artist to make music for dining at lunch time.
I love you 9 Seeds, but please don't subject me to this torment again.
I'm on my way home to try and stop the bleeding from my ears.
If anyone has any advice to get "Say You'll Remember Me" out of my head, please...

The Senior Lady was training te young man at the till, who took our order. She was making it obvious he wasn't doing it right. Inappropriate attitude to have, poor service, mediocre food. Ciao and adieu for...

I go there for the burgers - saves cooking, if I'm running late - and the burgers a delicious. So are their chips, if you want a side of fries.
I must make a point of going there during the day, to sample the cafe as well, and report back here on that, too. UPDATE - I AM going there for lunch - SOON. Just spotted a "must have"...
