CAFES CAN DO BETTER
Some Cafes in Upper Hutt can do better with not much effort. However they may also be experiencing the effects of a downturn in patronage or spending at such places as cafes, bars and restaurants which is likely to continue for most of 2024.
Of four recent cafes in Upper Hutt to open their doors, three have ongoing issues at this stage.
One has been operating for 6-7 weeks and despite the mostly good weather has yet to introduce outside tables and chairs to its patio which has a garden outlook. If it's not getting sufficient customers, maybe part of the answer is pretty clear to see why not.
Have visited another twice within the time frame published and on one occasion told that the cafe had closed early through lack of customers and the second time that the coffee equipment had been turned off through lack of customers.
Went to another cafe for a first visit and the coffee was luke warm.
More promising at a fourth, who told me they were going to extend their opening hours.
