There are "half-price discount" cafes in Taiwan.

According to Taiwan reports, cafes have emerged in Taiwan that offer half-price discounts for standing up, attracting customers who are willing to drink coffee standing up.

The Little Shabby Cafe provides tables where guests can drink coffee standing up.

According to the report, one of the biggest troubles for Taiwan's coffee shop operators is that the "table transfer rate" is too low. Many people sit on their computers all day, or they have three or five friends chatting all afternoon, leaving the cafe's income limited, says Hong Heng-Kai, owner of the "Little Shabby" Cafe. It's fast to stay for only one hour.

In the eastern district of Taipei, there are "Volkswagen liquor farms" that encourage standing drinking, and branches have been opened; there are also "rice picking houses" and "small shabby" cafes that encourage standing up to eat and bring in aquatic sushi.

Whether it is Liton, Liishi or Liquor, it comes from the business model derived from the narrow, dense and high rent of the Japanese Metropolis, hoping to increase the "ping ping efficiency" through the flow of people, and now Taiwan consumers are gradually accepting this kind of consumption pattern.

Miss Zhang, who has traveled to France, said that most European cafes have different prices according to separate table seats, bar seats and station seats, roughly full price for separate tables, 20% discount for bar area, and 50% discount for station seats. Europeans regard cafes as a place to drink coffee and leave as soon as they finish drinking. However, Taiwanese regard cafes as social and working places, so they stay for a long time.

For guests who have been sitting for a long time, there are cafes everywhere to respond, and there are cafes in Russia that offer "hourly coffee", boasting that "everything in the library is free and time is paid for." There is a cafe in New York that forbids guests to use laptops during rush hours. In Taiwan, there are cafes with a limit of 1.5 hours, a charge for using sockets, and some cafes that do not provide WiFi services.

The price of coffee in the "Rice House" cafe ranges from NT $110 to NT $250 (the same below). Standing areas are also provided outside the general seating area, as long as you stand in the bar area and enjoy a half-price discount for coffee, which not only increases the efficiency of the cafe, but also allows consumers to save money.

Zhan Zhaoren, the person in charge, said that the station area is suitable for ethnic groups who only want to stay for a short time. Since its launch more than a year ago, it has attracted many consumers who are willing to drink standing up.

There is a large long table at the entrance of the Little ragged Cafe. Hong Yokai, the head of the cafe, said, "at first, it was hoped that people would go to the cafe for coffee, so that they could get closer to each other and talk more, instead of sitting on the computer all day."
