What a bizarre experience.
Normally this place is pretty cool. There is a strong community feel here. However,
I stayed past the posted two hour limit on their patio seating (guilty as charged) and (regularly) over the last few months. The owner (a middle aged white man with zero people skills), while standing over me, lectured me angrily that I wasn't welcomed to stay past their posted 2 hour limit. He insisted that his indignant attitude was necessary because I made the staff experience "anxiety" for staying too long, asking questions about their recent renovation and future of the restaurant. Keep in mind that I had never been approached about anything for any reason before this.
When I stated that I didn't have to come back he said "Great" and "ok".
There are much better places in Tsawwassen to spend money and they will not ask retired members of the community to leave. Enjoy your coffee but remember to adhere to a strict time rule, no speaking to the staff outside your order and do not ask questions abut the business. I found out that all these things are taken seriously by them. Be advised.
Edit post reply: I admitted to staying too long. However, I was not treated very well in the process of being advised. Why else would I explain that I don't have to go back to a cafe I'd being going to for months if I was spoken to respectfully? That's my only issue here. It's hard to believe but I already found coffee shops that accept fat tips, allow people to lounge in public spaces to meet friends, listen to podcasts, conduct business, buy food and people watch for as long as they want.
I'm sure this is a one off and a miscommunication. Best of luck.
