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.

    • They’ve overhauled the kitchen and I gather they have a new chef. Also, a new menu is on the way.   What with Norbert’s arriving soon on Melbourne Grove, there’s going to be an Interesting offer down there.   
    • I watched this BBC expose on the news a week or so ago and wasn’t surprised at what they found although ii’s shocking when you see what the Police uncover. The amount of nail bars in London appearing almost daily is also cause for concern. What I can’t understand is the places that were raided had thousands and thousands of pounds of unpaid gas, electric etc bills. 
    • GPs are general practitioners, hence the name; they are not specialists.  Specialist doctors only work in hospitals.  Each GP surgery has a catchment area; you cannot just choose a GP because you think they are the best match for your health condition, you have to be in their catchment.  If you are not happy with the one you are currently with, ring round the others nearby and find an alternative who is able to take you.  Then, work with your hospital clinic and the GP together to maintain your health. As an aside, I have a chronic autoimmune condition and have had no problems with the shared care of my GP (The Gardens) and hospital consultant ( I am under Prof Heneghan).  I visit the clinic twice a year, they advise my GP of any changes and the GP does my prescriptions (which include a controlled drug) and my blood tests in between.  When there has been any queries about compatibility or suitability of a treatment, the GP contacts the team at Kings for advice.  The system works perfectly.   Good luck with your change of GP and give them any hospital letters when you sign up.  A GP along cannot manage your condition, so you will need to ask your hospital specialists to set up a new shared care agreement with your new GP (this has to be done this way; a GP cannot set that up).
