Never going back to Ralph’s Coffee in Palo Alto
Walked into Ralph’s Coffee at Stanford Shopping Center, bought a drink, sat down, and opened my laptop. Literally two minutes later, a worker comes over and tells me I can’t stay "the whole day" on a laptop. They weren't closing for hours, and other people around me had laptops out completely unbothered.
I told the manager it was pretty rude to assume I was squatting when I just got there. His response? "I apologize, but I’m not going to give you a free drink."
The worst part I never asked for a free drink
Never going to this place again to spend 10 dollars on a coffee with such bad service
Edit: I literally just wanted to drink my coffee and quickly check something on my screen before heading out. I had somewhere to be 20 minutes later, so I wasn't setting up camp
