    Re: Boom town coffee!!

    I would gladly pay $7 for an excellent latte (although not too often), but I resent paying $3 for a bit of stale brown water with boiled milk. Gotta compare apples with apples, damn media >

    There does need to be some price differentiation in the market though, crappy cafes serve up swill and feel like they can charge the same as a business that has invested money and time to create a premium product. It annoys me when these articles are written and give no credit to those who are actually offering a better value product (ie better but a bit more expensive) but only focus on price.

    Judging by the position and the background, Id say thats The Oyster Bar. I also think that $7 for a latte is crazy talk. I also think that a restaurant with six stars doesnt need to charge that much, abusing the high income patrons that surround them over at Milpoint. I also think that cappuccino doesnt look tasty; however, I think too much.

    My real questions are, what warrants a $7 latte... surely not the biscuits on the side? Are they pulling double ristrettos with epics blend and using premium bannisters farm milk thats on a different level to the stuff we use from bannisters to begin with. Haha!

    When it costs more to set up & run a Cafe than building a house then you need to pay a fair price or the business will fold
