A latte here in NL is still € 4 with no tip required

Yes but US lattes can be close to a liter.

Most of our coffee is drip. Sometimes cold brew. Espesso, cappuccino, Turkish, press, etc…we don’t do that much. Fancy coffee, sure, but not our “it’s Monday and I can’t even” coffee. Or our “it’s Tuesday and I can’t even” coffee, or so on.

Fast service shops and such will have “cappuccino” or “espresso” but I think it’s either concentrate or it’s just not the same.

We do have a serious unspoken caffeine addiction though. It comes from our Protestant work ethic while having our wallets bled dry. We end up with hustle culture and a stimulant addiction. Hooray!

Never buy coffee in the states if you’re from nz/aus or Europe. You WILL be disappointed.

We do have different types of coffee, but you might have to go to a specialty shop to get it like you do at home. If you're talking about regular restaurants it's probably good advice.
