A POPULAR Wrexham cafe has received more mail in response to an anonymous letter complaining about the price of a cup of tea that made national headlines.
Toast Deli and Cafe, situated on Charles Street, shared an anonymous letter recently after a customer wrote to the stunned owner complaining that £2.20 was an outrageous price for a cuppa.
The customer shared their grievances with the cafe, spending a further 85p to express their anger in letter form. As a result, customers across the UK were left speechless, particularly as the average cost for a brew stands at £2.42.
In a turn of events, the award-winning cafe has received a second letter, this time from Hanseatische Analogpost-Gesellschaft in Northern Germany with a different type of complaint.

The letter expresses writer Claas Keller's disappointment that the cafe only exists in Wrexham, and not overseas.
It reads: "As we recently learnt from the BBC News, a lover of good tea and handwritten mail has written you a letter.
"We at the Hanseatic Analogue Mail Society also love tea and analogue mail - that's why we don't want to be left behind and decided to write you too and send you a letter to complain.
"Why is your marvellously beautiful café and deli in Wales and not here? Although we love Wales, it would be much easier for us if you had opened your fantastic café round the corner from us. There are fabulous and charming cafés and tea rooms all over the United King-dom. We miss that here in northern Germany! So we don't think it's fair that you don't serve your good tea in your café's beautiful setting here in northern Germany.

"We kindly ask you to consider our complaint."
The light-hearted letter was welcomed by owner Claire Wright after the previous complaint addressing their price for a cuppa made national news.
The typed analog letter came with a miniature print that said: "We fight for tea and biscuits", and included quirky tea-related stamps on the envelope.
Customers shared Claire's amusement over the letter on social media, with one individual saying "This is brilliant, and someone with a sense of humour too!"
Another said: "That's lovely, but please don't move to Germany!"
