Ive been to that place. Although i walked through... and they had the shittest Hot Chocolate ever.
Here's the article

Here's the threatI recently found a drive-through coffee outlet in Murrumbeena (not pictured above, I hasten to add). This is the first drive-through coffee outlet I’ve seen in Australia, so naturally I had to give it a go. There were several things about this place destined to offend coffee purists. Let’s go through them, shall we?
1. It’s a drive-through coffee outlet. So much for the social aspect of cafes.
2. It looks like a petrol station, with a garish blue colour scheme and logo, and lots of concrete for that special concrete ambience.
3. The name is “Expresso Drive Through”. Having “expresso” in a name is always a bad sign. At least in this case, it’s not just a misspelling of “espresso”. They sell express coffee, people!
4. They sell coffee in three sizes. You have to specify the size; there is no default.
All of this quickly adds up to … coffee foreboding!
I drove to their window and my strong latte was delivered quickly and cheerfully, with a complimentary wafer. Within five seconds I had spilled some coffee onto the seat. Why doesn’t my car have cup-holders?
I turned back onto Murrumbeena Rd and pulled over to taste what was left, raising the paper cup to my mouth to take a swig. I almost spat it back out; the taste was that bad. I drank a bit more (to give it the benefit of the doubt I suppose), but no improvement was forthcoming, so I drove to Chadstone and threw it out. Fortunately I had the wafer to counter the awful taste.

I thought you'd be sticking up for the little guy ya muppet mexican?
Uh.. yes.. I kind of am..Originally Posted by rev
Do you want some coffee?
Do I?
Yes have some.
Yes have some.
IMO, his 4 arguments are pretty shitty.
Maybe so, law-suit deserving? I think not
It's not malicious
And I'm sure they have more than 7 employees which means they can't sue for defamation anyway!
As if they would prceed with legal proceedings.
Scare mongering tactics and nothing more.
Especially if it is a new store/cafe/concept, they won't have the time and resources to bother with defamation claims
Well some business minded person puts his neck on the line to create a new business, and you're brother has just pasted him because he doesn't like the taste.
Who the fuck is your brother to criticise them? Is he some kind of net-warrior coffee lord that every being AND bean bows down to?
sue them for not closing the lid properly :)
lol if you create a business but can't accept criticism you're going to have to shut down very, very quickly. Trust me on this one.
Who the fuck is my brother? That's the wrong question mate. Who he is is completely irrelevant and you know it.
The issue is this : who are THEY to intimidate a critic with legal threats.
My god, we need a free speech provision written into our Consitution before people stop believing in it altogether. Free speech is one of the most important rights one can possibly have.
ffs if he wants to critisize it, let him.
i called them and told them to get fucked

Why would they bother suing now for a comment that was posted July 25 last year?
