My first time visiting Coffee #1 (Stafford branch) I went to meet some friends. All 6 of us sat at a table and we were just chilling playing cards. A waitress came over to say that we needed to buy something to stay in the cafe which was fair enough. We complied and one of my friends got a frappe and a flapjack and sat and ate continuing to play cards. My friend said after he got back to the table that more of us needed to buy food for us to stay in so I went to see the menu. I spoke to the same waitress and she said that all of us need to buy something for us to stay. Bearing in mind that two of my friends had ordered something before I got there and I mentioned this to the waitress and she said “still there is only one person eating at the table”. I went back to tell my friends this and we decided to wait until my friend with my food to finish. So we continued playing cards, making no loud noises, no disturbances, just normal customers in a cafe. The same waitress came over again to say that we needed to leave due to the fact that no one else bought something. We mentioned that we were going to exit after he had eaten and the waitress said that he rest of us had to leave. We said that it’s unfair for him to eat on his own so she said “you have 2 seconds” which implied for him to hurry up, eat his food and get out. So we packed up and left which there was no reason for us to because it wasn’t like we were occupying a table that could be used. The cafe was empty and we are mature enough to act sensibly in a public area. I don’t know what the issue was but overall we were told to get out as soon as we finished our food. Besides this the setting of the cafe is very nice but a member of staff didn’t speak to us like we were customers. I’m sure if she was a customer she wouldn’t of liked to be talked to like she did to us. It’s just a shame that my first visit to this cafe didn’t meet my expectations.
