Today, although the coffee shop is nothing new to the Chinese, its longing and good impression have never disappeared. For many people, the coffee shop is a comfortable environment full of emotion, which is not only suitable for leisure but also suitable for work and study.

At the same time, no matter which coffee shop specializes in coffee itself or provides comprehensive catering, any coffee shop strives to provide guests with a place in line with their dreams. In addition to high-quality products, the interior decoration of the coffee shop and the quality of the service staff should not be careless. More often, stores will have one rule after another to maintain the comfort of the store environment, such as no smoking indoors, no pets in the store, no food with a strong pungent smell, and so on.

Recently, a coffee shop in Dublin, the capital of Ireland, issued an "impersonal" announcement on its Facebook saying that it would charge more for children who screamed during the meal. Although this is intended to ensure the rights and interests of their own environment and most of the guests, the announcement still aroused heated discussion among netizens.

PaulStenson, the owner of the Dublin shop called White Milu Deer Cafe (White Moose Cafe), recently tweeted on Facebook that the store will implement a measure: if more than one child screams during the meal, everyone will be charged 15% more when checking out, and for every additional noisy child, there will be an additional 10% screaming fee, once more than 4 children are noisy Then the whole table will be invited out.

The reason for the introduction of this rule, which seems to be unfriendly to family users, is that the owner of the White Milu Deer Cafe said that it was all because they had encountered children making a scene in the store every now and then. This has seriously damaged the dining environment in the store as well as the experience of other guests. In order to protect the rights and interests of employees and guests in the store, such new regulations have to be introduced.

After the tweet was sent, the White Milu Deer Cafe received more than 6,000 likes and more than 1,000 comments. As can be seen from the comments at the bottom of the tweet, many users think that coffee shops should "deal with" bear children in this way.

This is one of the most beautiful words I have ever read.

This is a great plan! Go to the store at once tomorrow, just to see how the parents pay.

Of course, there are also many netizens who question this. Some of them point out that some children who scream and are unable to control their emotions are not because of bears but because of related diseases, and the store is discriminating against those children. On the other hand, the messages of some netizens who just shook their wits were turned back.

Netizen: will there be a discount for children with good performance?

Netizen: no. That's what they're supposed to do.

The question is: is it worth advocating that the environment in coffee shops should be maintained by compulsory charges? Admittedly, from the coffee shop's point of view, it is a headache to deal with people who are morally substandard and do harm to the shop owner and even other customers. Many media have also exposed the uncivilized phenomena in coffee shops, such as only taking pictures without spending in coffee shops with low admission, running alone in foreign coffee shops, grabbing cups and smashing cups at Starbucks, and so on.

Often, coffee shops lack effective measures for this kind of customers, and often have to set limits on fees (of course, this is not the only motivation). Membership system, low cost of entry, extra charge for more than mealtime. Store strategies have emerged one after another, as does the coffee shop in Ireland that charges for noisy children. These measures do work to some extent, helping coffee shops maintain an elegant environment, but the risk is also obvious-coffee shops have to give up some of their customers.

In any case, there is no doubt that coffee shops belong to public places. When we are looking for a comfortable environment, we should not forget that we should also be a part of this beautiful store environment.

If there are coffee shops in China that charge more for uncivilized guests, do you agree with those who like to explore the shops to drink coffee?
