    Reading into this a month later it sounds like Coke have been pretty nice to him. They simply did not want their copywritten catch phrase used as the name of his business.
    They were quite happy with him using the slogan in advertising for their product etc. So by the sounds of things all needs to do is rename the business "Paeroa Cafe" and carry on with life.

    It's the Ugg boot saga all over again!
    This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My signature is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my signature is useless. Without my signature, I am useless.

    dont know the law here but many companies have lost rights to a commonly used expression because it is used too commonly
    eg Xerox and hoover

    personaly I hate that companies can own an expression. Sure they can own a trademark as in "Coke" but unless someone is misleading people and hurting Cokes business why make a fuss (cause they can)

    Also you seen the price of Coke lately total ripoff compared to a lot of other countries
