We made a Saturday morning stop at Spinola's after our morning workout. I was tired and wanted to try a non-chain coffee spot. I think Spinolas is more popular for their baked goods than their coffee. We ordered a large cappuccino with sugar free vanilla syrup and a large black coffee with an espresso shot. I got the latter of the two drinks. I was a little shocked at the price being almost $7.00 for two coffees but I guess that is how it is anymore. My coffee was also served to me in a mixed batch since they didn't have enough in one pot to fill my cup. I asked if they were going to mix it if I could just get all the fresh instead. The cashiers comment was I already put the espresso in there. I wanted to say I would prefer you make it over, but I said oh ok instead. She did offer to do it again, but then I felt like a jerk so I said don't worry about it. I think common sense tells you to not mix old coffee with new but I am probably asking for too much.
Anyhow the coffee was good. A ton of caffeine helped get me going for this particularly long work day around the house and shopping. However, I think they need to switch cup suppliers as both mine and my husband's coffee lids leaked. So take a sip of coffee and coffee drops on your shirt. Great more laundry. Next time I will mention this to the barista. Maybe bring your own cup from home.
