Well, Toto, I guess we're not in Starbucks anymore...

Members of the Royal Society (scientists, philosophers and artists, mostly) took their coffee at the Grecian Coffee House, just off the Strand in Devereux Court.

It was within its august walls that Isaac Newton and Edmund Halley once dissected a dolphin.

Try THAT tomorrow with your double-mocha half-fat decaf with extra chocolate sprinkles.
