Table Hoggers in Coffee Shops

[Excited6910]

I have outstayed my welcome a few times in my local coffee place. I go in with a friend we buy drinks and breakfast and natter away for hours. Sometimes I’ll get a second drink and sometimes I won’t. We have had people ask to join us (if we’re on a table for 4) and we always say yes.

If I go in alone and sit on the sofa people often join me of if I see a big group struggling to sit together I’ll move to a smaller table for them.

So I think I’m pretty considerate of others. But I get what you mean about the people on laptops, usually on a table for 4 even if there are tables for 2 available. The staff in my local will go over and ask if tables can be shared though so that’s a good thing too.
