The lettable area is large enough to provide around 26 covers. This might be
open from mid
morning to the evening and thus would supply not only hot drinks and snacks but soup and
open sandwiches (for example) at lunch time and would also be able to compete for the early
evening trade in competition with the pub which is often overbooked. A licence for the sale of
alcohol with food would also attract custom. This proposal is one of the most attractive as it
encourages visitors to linger. A good model is "Designs" cafe in Castle Douglas.
