Is it just me or is Cafe Nero really dirty?


I've stopped going in because it's always so filthy, paper strewn everywhere, drinks and food spilt on the floor and not cleand up. I've also noticed that a lot of the litter that gets neglected, is then blown out onto the street... if anyone else has noticed and been annoyed at this then let me know as I'm thinking of making a formal complaint.


Or am I just being a curmudgeon? It only really gets to me when the rubbish starts flying out the door onto Lordship Lane....

I've never been to the Caffe Nero on Lordship Lane but that's partly because I've always found Caffe Neros to be dirty! Clapham Junction station, Regent Street... they've always been grubby, especially the loos which are often really quite foul. methinks CN Head Office really needs to work on this...
They are so busy in there (as per the que) that they don't have enough barristas to clear the tables as they get used and abused. You should say something, I'm sure you won't be the first. To tell you the truth I have noticed an explosive of people into LL of a Saturday morning. Many more than there used to be. I don't think CN can cope with the demand.
Ooops, may have contributed to mess in Nero this morning when mini mumra proceeded to throw babycino (how ED is that?!) on floor. Did attempt to clear up but agree that are never enough people to clear tables. Think nero is more popular than they thought it would be ;-) or perhaps they are just being stingy on staff.

Email [email protected]. They take it very seriously when businesses let their rubbish float onto the public roads (because it adds to their clenaers' workload). They usually send someone around to have words.


I hate to sit in dirty coffee shops and it puts me right off. Also people should try to be tidier themsleves.

Macroban - I accept the cleaver jibe but I think my usage of the word dichotomy was fine.



Dichotomy: division into two mutually exclusive, opposed, or contradictory groups


Option one- it is just spirit that is really dirty

Option two - it is both spirit and cafe nero that are really dirty


If option one is true then Cafe Nero cannot be really dirty as it is just Spirit that is really dirty so option two must be false.


If option two is true then it is not just spirit that is really dirty and therefore option one must be false.


As one of the options being true implies the other to be false then the two options are mutually exclusive.



Anyway- has anyone tried House on Camberwell Church St? It's a new coffee bar and gallery. It's really good and not really dirty.

    • So you are justifying building on the green belt, in Londons case "the lungs of London" which will causes harm to natures ability to turn co2 into o2? 
    • But at the same time those she sought for advice told her, very clearly, she needed to seek specialist advice which she did not do and carried on regardless. So I think the jury is out on whether this was a legitimate mistake or not.
    • Thanks @Sephiroth I was thinking along the same lines (demonisation of Rayner by the media) and came across this article yesterday from Manchester Evening News.  It doesn't excuse her, but the title "Angela Rayner's real offence was being a working class woman in power" is self explanatory. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/angela-rayners-real-offence-being-32422596 The crossing legs nonsense is particularly telling.
    • Given her role, she pretty much had to go. I don't think she is an avid tax-schemer who deliberately set out to avoid tax - I do pretty much believe her story of multiple high-profile roles and looking after a child with needs. But many regular voters juggle demanding jobs and families and are afforded no leeway by taxman, so she totally should have known better But here we are - she was found to be negligent and now she has suffered teh consequence. To me that its the OPPOSITE of all parties/politicians as generally the ignore the whole thing (today we have Tice saying Farage's tax affairs are of no interest to voters for example) And it would be poor form to not acknowledge why she was targeted quite so viciously - we even have posters on here here saying "when I saw her taping on a boat that was the  end for me" - like the end of what?. Her gender and class were clear motivators for many people. Two wrongs don't make a right - but it';s interesting to see some posters on here give so many others a blank cheque. Many are planning to vote for Farage despite his dishonesty being 100x worse than Rayner PS - I don't think she will join Corbyn party - unlike him she is smart and unlike him she recognises that being In power means you can at least stand a chance of delivering results This. The Greens will have a rise in the polls on back of new leader but that is one hell of a coalition of NIMBY/YIMBYs As what would Reform do if in government to help with... well, anything?   Labour can at least point to decreasing waiting lists, lower immigration numbers, not having a different PM every 6 months - not that anyone is listening
