The first coffee shop in England

In 1650, the first coffee shop in England was opened near a university, named Yakopu. Two years later, Roger's shop was opened in London. Although the products were not exquisite, they were often full of customers.

The origin of the matter is that the businessman Yedworth met Roger in Turkey and invited Roger as a business partner to go back to England to open a shop.

Seeing that Yedwards was addicted to coffee every day, which aroused the curiosity of Roger and other friends, Roger gradually became interested in coffee and studied modestly. When the time was right, Yedwards paid for Roger to open a coffee shop named Roger.

Roger's store advertises health and distributes leaflets to the public under the title of coffee. It says it boosts the spirit and has some effect on the stomach or gout. This leaflet is the earliest coffee advertisement in the world and can be called the pioneer of modern advertising.

Roger's shop was then located in the commercial center north-west of the Tower of London, near the stock exchange. Since then, London's coffee houses have developed in this way. Due to the popularity of business activities in Britain, there are certainly not a few people who use Roger's store, and the information that cannot be obtained in the exchange can be learned indirectly in the coffee shop, which has become the second exchange.

The coffee shop in London is not only a place to exchange economic information, but also a favorite place for people to discuss politics and scholarship. Also known as "Penny University" (penny university; Penny penny is a British currency unit), which means you can read newspapers and magazines, exchange information and participate in discussions in the store for as little as a penny.

In view of this, quick-thinking businessmen are optimistic about the coffee market and follow Roger's example. Coffee shops in Britain are springing up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, and the number of coffee shops has reached 3000 in just a few years.

In addition, there was a feature at the time-the coffee shop in London was off-limits to women. The ban caused dissatisfaction among women, and in 1674 a group of housewives protested to the mayor. The petition pointed out that their husbands' physical strength declined due to drinking coffee, and the relationship between husband and wife was not harmonious.

In this regard, these men put forward a counterattack, saying that they slander did not have a definite empirical evidence, both sides have their own views, the incident has been unable to be resolved smoothly, without a disease.
