The Ziferblat Cafe is like the all-you-can-eat buffet for coffee-lovers, hipsters and more. Of course, instead of paying a flat fee for the drinks and snacks available at all times, visitors pay per minute just to be inside its space. In a way, instead of paying for these tasty morsels, people are paying for space and comfort when at the Ziferblat Cafe.
For those cynics out there that believe such a place as the Ziferblat Cafe would run a hefty bill, each minute costs only three pence, which equals out to one cup of cappuccino in London, England, where the coffee shop is located. The Ziferblat Cafe is inspired by the practice in Russia.
