Definitely don't ask for it in Spanish!

I believe I've been misunderstood. Not having drip coffee doesn't make one a prude. Scorning others for their preferred beverage preparation makes one a prude.

Personally, I’d be like “what the fuck are talking about?”

Most Spanish speaking people are Mexican. We ask for café negro. Now, the interesting part is that if you want a café negro in any cafe, and you feel awkward about it, you can ask for a café americano. It's curious how the café negro in this setup is the "American coffee". Then again, we don't think America is America, we understand America as the Americas.

There are still quite a few around Ohio. I haven't been in years though, because yea, it's disappointing now.

I guess I'm not in my right mind then. At home cowboy coffee only, I don't even have a French press or a v60. Although in my country we call it tramp coffee.

Neat! I've always heard it's super gross. But I guess anything can be done well, and the gross stuff was probably due to lack of care.

That's Germany only. It's a very, very small subset

Apparently it is a term that began with WW2. It's highly regional and not many people use it

The term regular size coffee implies the existence of irregular size coffee

Unfortunately not, but I'm clearly talking about countries. I'm not saying every Spanish speaking country should use "cafe negro", I was just stating that a good chunk of Spanish speaking people do use "cafe negro".

"Large" and "Small" being considered "irregular" sizes of coffee.

We're all on the internet. Why make things up when people (including yourself) can fact check?

I'm just saying, that "most Spanish speaking people are Mexican" is dangerously doing a heavy lifting. Take that as you will

Look, there’s half a billion of us and I’m not gonna reject the possibility that wherever you’re from people say “café negro” for some reason, but yeah, no,
Go to Google Maps and search for the phrase: Cafe Negro Mexico
There are several cafes named that and if you search South America there are some there too.
Here's one in Mexico City: -
