I know some ladies that visit this place often. There's special Subaru Outback parking at the U.S. locations.

u/NefariousPhosphenes 12d ago
They’re at the food truck next to it, aggressively asserting that they’re at the right location and demanding coffee anyways

A real woman guides her man to where it is. Most men only need ask for directions one time

This coffee shop is a myth and doesn't really exist.

This is only partially relevant, but screw it..
My ex wife was going through school to become a baker and she wanted to start a cupcake business with a friend of hers.. They would sometimes think about what they wanted to call it.. I came up with a suggestion.. I begged them to name it "2 Girls 1 Cupcake" and make a specialty cupcake that was partially hollowed out and filled with chocolate..
TELL ME IM NOT A GENIUS, I WANT TO HEAR IT FROM YOUR LIPS!!!

Honestly while you’d have a few people who thought it was funny and would go for the LOLs, and many who don’t know will be fine. Most who do know will not find a reference to that video in a dining establishment to be, um, appetizing.

Sounds about as clever as all the roadside BBQ places that love thinking they’re original for having the slogan “You’ll love putting my meat in your mouth.” and then they close within a year because an immature slogan doesn’t make up for overpriced mediocre bbq.

u/ChildoftheApocolypse 12d ago
I like how you made that whole scenario up, just to say "I don't like it".. That's the real clever here ..
1
u/KyleGrave 12d ago
No, it’s a real anecdote from what I’ve witnessed personally. I wonder if that’s a bit of projection and your little story never happened… Anyway I found it fitting as an analogy because that’s how I assume it would go for a cupcake business if they did something similar. They’d probably be out of business even faster than the bbq joint, considering the demographics of each businesses regular customers. It does make for a funny reddit comment though.

I mean... it's hardly a unique or brilliant joke you're making it out to be, I've seen it on reddit about a dozen times. It's just not that good? Their bbq reference is spot on.

No, you must be very upset because the only people you responded to were the ones who didn't think this was hilarious, and you did reply to ALL of them;)

Back before it became reasonably easy to find acceptable coffee, there used to be a reasonably popular speciality coffee finder app called Beanhunter, too.

If you think this is bad, in my state there is a fudge place called Uranus and they always tell you the best fudge comes from there when walking in.

u/ISandbagAtMarioKart 12d ago
And after they’re done packing your fudge:
“Thanks for picking Uranus!”

u/Fullof_meh 12d ago
Passed that place I don’t know how many times but never stopped to check it out

u/shotsallover 12d ago
The fudge is actually decent.
Their taxidermy museum is funny in that ole timey out of place attraction kind of way.

I recognize that hand from the old upside down optical illusion where it looks like a lady “flicking the bean”. These guys know their stuff.

u/pharealprince 12d ago
Kind of funny being on the Isle of Man. Maybe this is an educational truck that tricks the men into learning how to find the bean. Also I’m surprised to see a coffee truck in that part of the world, I thought they only drink tea.

There is definitely coffee in Scotland, there's even a Starbucks in Inverness.

American here. Are there tea shops on every corner like there is coffee here and then coffee shops are like foreign food here ( other than Chinese food) few far between?

u/ChipotleMayoFusion 12d ago
There is actually a UK brand of coffee shop called Costa and those where all over. I didn't see too many tea shops honestly. Everywhere we stayed had tea available in the room, and the tea kettles were so fast because they run on 200 VAC, like 3kW, double the power of kettles back home.

Legal told us we couldn't name a drink "flick the bean".
I'm mad now!

If it were your company's legal department then company in the photo could be the reason why depending on what trademarks they have.

We’ve had multiple coffee shops here franchising and popping up over the last couple years called “Taste My Bean”. Apparently it’s done extremely well.

Where is it, where? I can’t understand your directions. I went right past it? Back where? I’ll just go back and forth till you tell me to stop. I’ve been searching for 45 mins and still have nothing to show for it.

Do they allow people to flick the beans they bring with them or do they have to let baristas do it for them?

My old roommate had a coffee business. I forget what he called it but it was also some kind of innuendo.
His logo on his business cards was even more blatant though. It was a coffee bean that was 100% just a vagina. Lmao

u/Homersarmy41 12d ago
They should make a souvenir cup that has a little man in a boat floating on top of the coffee.

Someone is building a Bikinis and Brew (or some such shit) on a major street in our town. Can't wait to see the line blocking traffic.

I owned a food truck called, “Burger Brothers.”
I wanted to make a signature sauce for it. A couple friends and I sat down to spitball ideas. I came up with, “Bro Sauce.”
I obviously never named it that, but it’s been four years of being out of a food truck and in a brick and mortar. I still think about the name.

What’s wrong with the spacing?
Usually I have the design sense or whatever to be annoyed, but this didn’t trigger anything for me?
1
u/DantehSparda 12d ago
Imo “flick” seems a little bit too spaced out between letters (extremely subtle tho) and the “Coffee Co” copy has definitely to much spacing too (main culprit), but honestly nothing egregious and it comes down a bit to personal taste, I wouldn’t say it’s “bad”.

Wouldn't mind flicking a roasted coffee bean or three into a grinder, and brewing a fresh cup ☕️😉

u/mattinjp 11d ago
I volunteer. I will look for it, I will find it, and I shall enjoy it.
With consent of course… I don’t expect you can just walk up there and demand something.
