I know there are coffee addicts here who will have an opinion on this.

 

I've long been getting coffees from BP when doing a long trip, but curious to see where others here on the forum get theirs from, and why. 

 

I'm not interested in "i get my coffee from Atomic in Kingsland" :) I'm interested in coffees only from the bigger-brand petrol stations, even if they are all a lesser product compared to cafés.

My 2c is for BP, not had Caltex, but severely disliked Z.

 

 

 

It's been many years since I've had coffee from any of them however.

BP for me by a mile.  Don't like Z coffee.

Who gets coffee from a petrol station? That is like getting a pizza from Dominos.

Me too. A gas station espresso made coffee is better than no coffee.

I wonder what will happen to short espresso when there are no more petrol stations. Will there be hairdresser, manicurist and pedicurist appointments for e-charging then? 😆
