Cheers to the special orders and to those who just made our days special...
To those who thought they were getting skinny milk and to those we decide you'd like full cream better
To the legend who brought her parrot in regularly on her shoulder via her convertible
To the musicians who ask for 8 sugars, we gave you 5 (max)
To the challenge of us having your coffee ready before you reach the counter
And to the staff who were sick on Janine's one day off
The stoking of the fire during the night in winter, opening our windows on summer nights and the kids who lit our bins on fire
To the emergency runs to bernardis through the back door (sorry for the wait)
The just the eye of the bacon please
Oh that was supposed to be in a takeaway cup but I'm having it here
I'll have one 1/2 strength decaf mocha with a dash of caramel and a quarter teaspoon of sugar in a mug with a handle please
What does b and e stand for?
Does breakfast all day mean there is an all day breakfast
The 9 years in "how long have you been here for?"
To those who order thickshakes with skim milk
The I'm allergic to raw onion
To the mums who let us clean up their kids projectile vomit.
To the lady who regularly fainted, we picked up on your game
To the times we disappeared beneath the counter and screamed with no noise, or just ate cake
To the people who bailed after just one shift (soft)
To the creepy cute notes on napkins
To the mums who let their kids make one muffin look like 10 muffins on the floor
To the mums who kept putting nappies in the lady bin. Yes, Janine had to to get them out. Just as the sign says
To the times we wheeled the gelato machine to the other side of town to an event and people said $5 is too expensive for home made gelato
To the people we named food or drinks after
To the teachers who came in every Thursday and smashed some cake
To the kids who chilled beneath the front windows for the wifi
To the ladies who liked to steal vintage clothing in the bathroom - Amy has cursed you
To the people who called us posh - you dumb
To the awesome elderly ladies who always had wine over lunch - cheers!
To the people who begged and begged for mez to be open for dinner, and then didn't ever turn up
To the people who made it rain from the sugar bowls
To the burgers with the lot or Tony's Thai when we're too lazy for dinner and Steve is away
To the people who stole our nice teapots, and our cutlery, salt, pepper, sauces, plates and furniture
And to the lady who clearly had stolen something and put it in her handbag, and we don't know what is was
To the people who read the closed sign then walk in and ask if we are open
We love you all just the way you are!
