Recently, a mom of a toddler turned to Mumsnet, a popular UK forum for parents, to ask if she was being unreasonable in a recent incident at a cafe.
According to the frustrated mom, she was having breakfast with her toddler when a man was taking a teams call at a nearby table.
“Toddler was being good as gold in my opinion,” mom explained, adding that the child was babbling and singing but it wasn’t loud. The guy in a video meeting was clearly not happy, rolling his eyes and huffing at them, so the mom did what she thought was reasonable in the situation.

Remote work in cafes has been getting more and more popular, but not every establishment welcomes remote workers
In the post-pandemic world, remote work has become a norm. And while coffeehouses have always offered remote workers a great alternative to their tiny apartments, away from roommates, family members, pets and kids, recently, the trend has been soaring.
However, not every establishment that sells coffee is well-suited for remote work, experts warn. Luka Sanchez, the owner of Common Grounds Lounge Cafe in Jefferson Valley, New York told Insider that in order to see if remote workers are welcome in a particular cafe, you need to look for a strong WiFi connection and plenty of power outlets. Plenty of seating is another important factor that doesn’t limit people for how long they want to stay.
Some coffee house owners are annoyed at remote workers who get too comfortable and don’t care about their products
Some coffee house owners, however, have been annoyed by remote workers who feel too comfortable with bringing their office to a cafe. “We have people come in and without even looking at the menu, ask us if our WiFi works and is it strong and stable,” Katrin Möller from Kat’s Coffee, in Thalpe, Sri Lanka says.
“It doesn’t feel good, when you put all your energy and love into your product and it is very clear that your product is more or less a nuisance, because they have to order something so they can stay, right?”
Moreover, some remote workers may annoy coffee house owners and staff by trying to not spend money while getting a table at their establishment. However, experts say that if you are unable to afford products or want to save money, it’s better to pick public libraries and parks as spaces for remote work.
