Coffee at Northern Tea Merchants @TeaMerchant with @alexkingsley
I went across to Chesterfield today to see Alex and he took me to the Northern Tea Merchants for coffee and a cake. What an experience.
The first thing you have to do is choose your beans, then they freshly ground your choice before making the coffee just for you. Whilst they make you drink, you take a seat in their “interesting shop” and then your food and drink is brought to your table. No hanging around in that pack of customers waiting for your coffee to be given to you like you get in the chains!
Alex and I chose the same beans and had a cafetière for two (6 cups), a choice of cream or milk, two cakes and change from £7.
This is the coffee we chose:
And I bought some to take home.
I have driven past this shop many time when going to and from the Peak District and did not know it was there – but next time I am passing I am going to stop and get a coffee.
They sell tea as well.

Mevagissey and a cream tea
It was another nice day – no fog and a good sunrise.
After stopping off in St Austell for bacon butties and tea we went into Mevagissey.
On the way back to the campsite we detoured to The Tearoom at Tresillian Garden Centre for a Cornish cream tea (again, we did not miss last year either).

South West Coast Path
As it was an exceptional day for the last day of October, Jeremy and I walked down to the coast from the campsite – a walk we had been promising to do if the weather improved.
We got down near the sea at Nare Head where we found some flat rocks that made a great place to stop for lunch.
We got my compass/thermometer out to check the temperature at lunch time.
