A new app launching in New York promises coffee connoisseurs the opportunity to enjoy limitless coffee for $45/month. We already know of the health benefits from drinking coffee so now you can save your wallet whilst you save yourself.
The app offers access to a half dozen independent coffee shops to begin with but this is likely to expand over time. Don't want to commit to $45/month? They also offer pre-paid 10-25 cup plans.

Disagree that those things don't provide revenue. Few will take a table without buying anything. It's more about turning the tables over (though if the place isn't packed, what's the harm?) or getting people to buy enough and the solution to that could be as simple as harder chairs or louder music. Or it could be taking the time to ask the one person with stuff spread out over the largest table if he wouldn't mind moving to a smaller table or share with the one person with stuff spread out over the other big table to make some room for the group that just came in. A little polite conversation often does wonders to train customers to be more considerate of each other without giving the impression that you're trying to chase anybody off. Where I see the similarity, and where I was really going with this is that both are likely to be problems of false perception rather than a rational evaluation based on in depth observation of reality.
