Rain is good for business
I’m sitting in Coffee Garden, and they are packed. More to the point, their primary sitting area is packed, and their study area is packed. Normally, there are mostly empty tables in the study area.
First, the rain helps. It shuts down their outdoor seating, and it makes people stir crazy. Instead of hanging out at home, bemoaning the rain, people go to somewhere where they can still sit inside, but pretend they’re doing something productive. Sometimes they might actually be productive.
Second, props to Coffee Garden for having this gallery/study area combination. It is incredibly inviting to those of us who need a quiet place to study.
