    Serious answer.

    When not working, I am an avid sight see-er when o/s, and for me, that doesnt include seeing the inside of cafe's when I could be seeing the inside of a some kind of cultural icon, landmark etc.

    Coffee needs to be easily sourced and available. Effectively, once you leave the safety of your hotel room and the good filter coffee you should have been able to make yourself (in the US), any further coffee had during the day needs to be...directly and conveniently in front of you. If it isnt in front of you, or if it is but isnt very good, you dont (need) go out of your way to find something. And of course, the world doesnt (have to) revolve around espresso / milk espressos and / cafes. I enjoy a good filter coffee.

    But that's just my philosophy. I think there are many more people that take that philospohy but are intimidated to say such in forums like this.

    hope that helps

        Indeed, on more than one occasion in the US I've found myself standing in a very long line for a coffee thinking to myself what the hell am I doing wasting 20 minutes of my holiday for something that's no better than any cafe in Australia can bash out in 2 mins.

            Couldn't agree more... as a regular traveller I take pride in finding a decent place in a new country. Trust me, most of my time is in China in the last 3 years. Mind you, you think the US is bad. Starbucks is heaven compared to the shite traded there as coffee in most places.
