Café etiquette
I detest the people who arrive at a busy self-service café and occupy a table while one or more of their number queues. Meanwhile people leaving the till with their food have nowhere to sit.

No mates.

No, mates
They leave their mates at the table while they queue for food. Wasn't that clear?

It was perfectly.
I was being rude. Sorry.
Next time you're in my part of the world and we go out for coffee I'll reserve the table for you.

Yeah - they should go to the counter, get served and then eat standing up because they couldn't get a fucking table.
Brilliant.

I think the OP thinks it's a twatty thing to do
because if the tables are taken up by people reserving seats, then they are at risk from having to eat standing up. Which is true. In an ideal world, everyone would stay queued in their groups and would sit in the order they queued. However, this isn't an ideal world and lone cafe-goers like OP and myself will just have to take a bit longer getting ketchup or sugar.

Or you could get some
mates.
Who'll either reserve your table or pay for the coffees while you take seat at a table - either way every hole's a goal right?
