$5.50 for a Latte is certainly high but if it's great and more importantly it is advertised as $5.50 then I'm okay with that. I would prefer to pay $5.50 for an acceptable coffee as opposed to $3.50 for [insert coffee-chain here] swill.
I didn't go in Brett, I sat outside with my youngest. There were quite a few staff around, she asked for a latte, it was being made, as they stated the price so she counldn't really change her mind. She was going to order herself a drink but kept her mouth shut! She didn't mention if they had a price list on display. For me anything over $4 is expensive for a standard latte (ie not a double or jug of milk job). There aren't many chains around here, but I know a few places to get a "acceptable", ie drinkable coffee. There are places that serve fantastic coffee, and it usually doesn't cost me anymore, but they aren't on every corner! I'll be having my coffee at home before I go out if this is a future trend in my local area!
