Last night I had the worst espresso I've ever had in my life in Terminal One at Manchester Airport. Can't remember the name of the outlet (if anybody can fill me in I'll write to them) but it was on the left hand side after you came down the stairs. It's proud slogan was 'made with a passion' and if it was, that passion was 'hatred of the customer'.
Thin, flavourless, too long, no crema at all and spilling down the side of the cup and into the saucer. A case for suing under the trade descriptions act. Made by a sour-faced crone too. I took one sip and handed it straight back.
