If you have been to the Village recently, you probably noticed O'Cafe has expanded their outside dining into the on-street parking. This new pandemic-inspired patio would have been fantastic a year ago, but given the Village's parking issues, is this new patio the best use of that space now?
What do you think?
The comment below (C Jacobs) really is on point. Additionally… We started coming back to the Village right when Christoph and his family created Cafe O and it’s a real difference maker in the lives of us and other folks who come here. After O we stroll the shops in the Village. In my mind the loss of a couple of spots is meaningless when compared with the enhancement to the experience at this special cafe. Also, having experienced all the outside dining in Europe, a positive unintended consequence of the pandemic is the ‘import’ of this style of dining to the US albeit in a limited fashion. Hopefully there is no winding back the clock, especially in this instance.
