Tea was not the only tropical product to reach the masses of the people in Great Britain. Coffee became a staple beverage during the 18th century as well. By 1740 there were over 550 coffee houses in London alone. These establishments became common meeting places and hotbeds of political activity in addition to selling tropical goods.
