I consider myself to be a fairly camping conscious person. When the place is busy, I do my best not to linger.

However, at the same time, restaurants are a place to eat and socialize, so some camping should be expected and understood. Although the place could profit more without any camping, it's not a realistic scenario, because aggressively minimizing camping is going adversely affect business.

I would think that camping is an even bigger issue for coffee shops.
