As a cafe owner i have always abided by the rules, had seating 3m apart, sanitised regularly, have a hand sanitizer station etc. My customers loved to feel safe, felt a little bit of hope at seeing a return to some kind of normality and it's been swiped from them. I wouldn't support this only I know that we act responsibly and we must also allow people the freedom to make the choice whether to sit or not in a safest environment we can provide.

I have seen this done recently in Bandon, and believe it was and would be highly beneficial to peoples mental health and morale

I think it is only right that cafes have this facility to help them claw back some of the income they have lost during this pandemic.

Deirdre McCarthy (Cork, 2020-05-30)

I see with my very own eyes that cafe owners are being careful during this pandemic. It will help keep the business open.

We need to move on and support or local businesses, big time.

Tables and chairs should be allowed outside cafes and other premises

Trevor Hurley (Freemount, 2020-05-30)

It's basic common sense.

Sarah McCarthy (Bandon, 2020-05-30)

#45

Having tables outside a cafe we can still meet one friend and social distance at the same time and it would be great to get businesses back up and running and help our town get back on its feet

Sharon Nyhan (Cork, 2020-05-30)

It is unfair for cafes and restaurants

Andrzej Faltyn (Midleton, 2020-05-30)

This helps local businesses without hampering Social distancing.
It helps the economy
It’s good for people’s mental health
It creates much needed optimism.
It actually helps with general guideline adherence too. I.E awareness of distancing when socialising begins..

Because most businesses now are only able to do take away..myself included, and it's so important that visitors and locals are able to find a seat and enjoy their take away .

Clare Atkinson (Kinsale, 2020-05-30)

I love coffie outside

Dominik Kus (Bandon, 2020-05-30)

I believe it is important for small businesses to have outside seating especially in this beautiful weather so customers can enjoy some form of normality and for businesses to survive.

Mary Buckley (Cork, 2020-05-30)

#79

If its OK to meet small groups and sit and chat outside, I think small cafes should be allowed to safely provide sanitised seating for patrons. This will only benefit the economic bashing that the country will face soon. Otherwise these small businesses may never reopen.

Rachel Egan (Dublin, 2020-05-30)

Common sense seems to have disappeared. Bring it back is my petition. It is totally safe to sit outside in the fresh air with your friends and enjoy socializing in a cafe keeping a max 2 m distance from other customers

Helen Fogarty (Enfield, 2020-05-30)

#82

It's ridiculous not to have seating outside. They may take our shops but they will never take our seats!!!😂😂

I think out door seating with a social distance is reasonable

People should be able to sit outside and enjoy the weather.

Christopher Fraser (Cork, 2020-05-30)

Because I think this a great idea and should be allowed

Esther Banks (Cork, 2020-05-30)

Sitting outside a cafe enjoying a cup of coffee or having a bite to eat in fresh air is not doing anyone anyharm.. Its good for a persons mental health to get out and socialise.

Laura Nyhan (Cork, 2020-05-30)

#112

I’m signing because sitting outside, respecting social distance, at well disinfected tables can only be good for our mental health and also for the small local coffe shops.

Florina Phelan (Bandon, 2020-05-30)

Small businesses are the lifeblood of local communities,if they cannot operate then our town does.

Ann Pasley (Bandon, 2020-05-30)

#122

I think it’s a joke in the middle of a pandemic and a rule of 2 metres social distancing in place that we can’t sit out and have a cup of coffee.

Katherine O Donovan (Bandon Co Cork, 2020-05-30)

#124

I think seating should be allowed outside cafes and bars in these circumstances

Jean O Mahony (Bandon, 2020-05-30)

#134

I think it has been a tough year for us all due to covid 19 , and it's a great idea for seats outside cofree shops as we are starting to see things coming back for normality for us in our town. A big yes to all coffee shops from me

Olivia Hayes (Bandon, 2020-05-30)

Business have been closed last 3 months and we need to support them or lots of jobs will be lost. Irish government needs to wake up and cop on.

It is a lovely thing to be able to do outside and gives a little business to our local cafes and restaurants in these tough times

I think seats are a great idea for small cafes ect to draw in customers and help them get on there feet again . Let’s support each other .

Linda Brett (Cork, 2020-05-31)

#156

It makes more sense than customers using public seating. Cafes will be supervised and will be cleaned/sanitised regularly and will ensure no rubbish is left.

Niamh Cullinane (Bandon Co. CORK, 2020-05-31)

Why not

Marzena Olbrych (Bandon, 2020-05-31)

#165

Signing this, I want to add that these premises also pay rates on indoor space they cannot use so should not be penalised further by having to pay extra utilising the designated outdoor space

It is vital for our communities mental health to have some form of social interaction after all these weeks. Everyone is safe outdoors, in small groups social distancing and hand hygiene are key which everyone is aware of at this stage

I really miss sitting outside for a coffee people watching

Betty O Connor (Cork, 2020-05-31)

I think it's right. Don't punish the cafe's etc anymore than they already have been.

Carol O'Donovan (Bandon, 2020-05-31)

#187

Hypocracy at it’s finest. Leo and his friends can gather in a crowded park but businesses can not provide sanitised seating for their customers to enjoy a cup of coffee and a chat

Esther Sinnott (Bandon, 2020-05-31)

Is the right time do do it!

Small businesses need to be able to survive and should be rewarded for their innovation during this incredibly difficult time. People are gathering in parks and beaches theres no difference
