Coffee / Hamper

I met a friend who was a former work colleague for coffee after work today. However, I ran into a slight snag - where to go for coffee on the West side of St Pauls that isn't a Starbucks? Because, I feel there should be plenty of decent places, it's just that I don't know them as I never go for coffee! (I was expecting her to want alcohol and I had an idea for a pub!)
Anyway, we ended up in Pret and I had a Mocha. We discussed politics (she seemed very relieved when I expressed the same reactions to both Brexit and President-to-be Trump as she felt - we'd never really talked about politics at work). We exchanged news on colleagues we both knew, on families and on career choices (ours and our kids!). It was really good to see her again.
