Are you drinking your coffee at home? Maybe you’re sipping your café au lait at a cozy neighborhood café? Like Caffeé Nero for instance.
I visited their South End location on Tremont Street last year and am just getting around to writing about it now. It’s a cute little spot. I really enjoyed it and had intended to return.
I’ll make it back there or to one of their other locations at some point. Have you been? Besides coffee they have plenty of sweets too.
I was reminded of Caffeé Nero after reading a Boston Globe article this morning. Apparently Dunkin’ Donuts and Starbucks had lower sales than expected this past week.
The writer wondered if it was because of higher prices or a bad national mood. Then further speculated.
The question now, she added, is where are people buying their coffee instead. “Are they driving people to McDonald’s, Cumberland Farms, or Speedway?”
Maybe the answer is simple. We have so many better alternatives.
