Not a home office: cafe finds coffee and laptops don’t blend well
In Canterbury, the city that nurtured such hostelry-haunting characters as Christopher Marlowe and Patrick Leigh Fermor, a popular café has taken back control of its tables. Henceforth, laptops are banned from Fringe + Ginge Coffee on Northgate Street.
It wasn’t just that the keyboard-tapping of remote workers quelled the cheerful buzz of conversation, but that some laptop-wielding table-hoggers seemed to have mistaken the place for their own home office, demanding that the owners turn off the music, so that they could make their Zoom calls in peace.
