I love coming to this Café Nero and I visit most weekdays. Most of their staff are amazing, especially the Portuguese gentleman who is polite, funny and makes great coffees. This morning however, though it was the Portuguese gentleman making my coffee, while he went to get my pastry, the woman serving me was so rude. She was flippant and I wasn't even finished with talking to her when she moved on to the next customer. I wanted to buy some chocolate, but she just dismissed me.

So far they delivered my coffee with smile on their face , always making jokes, always friendly, always chatty, it feels welcome coming into the shop. A gigantic thank you to the staff : Sabrina , Ligeia, Erik and Manuel, and last but not least the...
