I am not a coffee drinker, but I am an avid tea drinker. I go with my girlfriend sometimes to coffee shops, and get tea (usually a chai or something, because most coffee shops stock very little tea), and we sip it. Hot stuff you cannot chug. When you sip something hot, it takes time. Reading helps fill the time while you are drinking, so you're not mindlessly staring at a wall. By preventing reading, you're having people not stay with their drinks, and in the end of I am not wanting something on the go, I'll not go to a place that only offers on the go. At that point the coffee shop may as well be a drive through, and just that.
