Reply to comment by GuyNoirPI in Georgetown’s new Maman bakery frowns upon computer usage. by washdc20001

Okay, you’ve convinced me. I think it was just poor timing on handing me the meal and then saying ‘relocate.’ I walk back my statement. My intention wasn’t to stay long, but they didn’t know I wasn’t a camper for the day. Thanks!

Yes, to second this, there's often a lot of times when people just buy a coffee and camp all day. The people who just want to come enjoy a coffee and/or pastry and can't find a spot because of it.

Yeah. That makes sense. I agree there are those that linger a little too long and hold up the seating availability. Georgetown has a lot of foot traffic and this bakery is new so I’m sure they’re guarding seating meticulously right now. I think I got a little twisted up on how/when the message was delivered. But I’ll definitely go back sans computer. My bad.

Just commenting to say what a nice perspective from you! Rare to see someone change their mind so reasonably

You'll probably enjoy it more too. People watching, especially during tourist season, can be entertaining in itself!
