Impact of Internet connection on coffee shops

Since yesterday Nov 12, 2009 I was out looking for a coffee shop with internet connection because Globelines has a problem with their service. For more than 24 hours now, we still do not have internet connection in the office.

I went to my favorite Seattle’s Best in Ayala but unfortunately they do not have internet connection either. No wonder there were only few people sipping coffee last night. Then I tried my second favorite coffee shop, The Coffee Bean. The same problem I am facing.

In a place like Cebu, there are a lot of coffee shops and most often than not, businessmen are what you likely to see in there. Seldom, you will see students. Most of all, you will see people not just sipping hot or cold coffee but they are surfing the net. Personally I go to coffee shop for two reasons. One is to relax and second is to surf the net.

Because of the incident last night and today I realize how the internet connection impacted the coffee shops with regards to getting in customers. Customers wanted more than just coffee. If you have internet connection as your value added service you will surely have a lot customers compared to those who have no such service. One time I went to Figaro Coffee Shop but they do not have that service so I never go there again. Their coffee seemed sour when I sip it without surfing the net LOL

I love to have my own coffee shop in the near future so I have to put this service as my top on the list.
