Is it OK for cafes to turn away mums with prams?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Both coffee and controversy is brewing in wider Wellington region at the moment on the topic of prams in cafes.

Hi neighbours,

Both coffee and controversy is brewing in wider Wellington region at the moment on the topic of prams in cafes.

A cafe in Petone doesn't allow buggies and prams in the cafe when two designated areas up front by the window are full. This is due to space and safety reasons. However, some mums have hit out saying it isn't "child friendly". Other cafes have now chimed into the debate. We want to know your thoughts on the topic.

Are you a mum with a pram that's been turned away from a cafe? Or perhaps you're a business owner that struggles to fit prams on the premise. Perhaps you're a customer with an opinion to share. Let us know your thoughts in the replies! (Please add "NFP/not for print" if you do not want your images/comments used on Stuff)

Garden Sort Out Tricks....

Ingrid from Brooklyn

By doing a few clever tasks now your garden will be sorted through summer.
 1. Do a quick weed.
 2. Plant evergreen shrubs to fill gaps.
 3. Put on mulch 10cm thick (reducing light to the soil). Option: lay down newspaper under the mulch (superettes often have old newspapers to give away).
