Giving people access codes based on purchases is incredibly lame and hurts the the natural warm vibe of a good coffeeshop.
To All Coffee Shop Owners:
- Give away wifi.
- Gently enforce purchases with use of table space . Aka, more or less ban squatting.
- VERY IMPORTANT: Create laptop zones and/or make laptoppers sit with each other and not hog 4 person tables. It'd probably help people meet each other and it'll conserve space. Alternatively, have lots of little tables that barely fit one laptop.
Problem solved!!
