coffee shop
I went into an artisan coffee shop and asked for a skinny latte.
I asked how much the cakes were. The lady replied: "The custard tarts on the bottom shelf are £1.00; the carrot cake on the second shelf is £1.50; the Bakewell tart on the third shelf is £2.00; the cake on the top shelf is £4.00." "What sort of cake is on the top shelf" I inquired. "That's my-dearer cake" |

Chap went into the same shop and asked how much was their Gattux.
“Gatto, sir, it’s pronounced Gatto, and it’s £5 a slice” “£5 a slice? Bollo to that”

Then David Gates went in, but was refused service.
“This is a cake shop, sir, we don’t serve bread” (It’s OK, I’ll get my own coat........)

I asked for a cup of coffee and a fruit scone. They handed me the coffee and an empty plate. I said "Where's my cake?" he said "Scone"!

This place is popular with pop stars, as an ex-Beatle goes in next.
“I’ll have one of those coffees you named after me” “It’s Mocha you idiot, not Macca...........”
