Nantwich Bookshop bosses have set up “chatty tables” to provide customers on their own with some company, writes Jonathan White.
Denise and Steve Lawson, owners of the Nantwich Bookshop & Coffee Lounge on High Street, will open the ‘chatty tables’ every Tuesday and Thursday morning from 9am to 11am.
They are available for anyone to sit down and talk to other customers.
It is hoped that the idea will be useful to anyone who is lonely and could benefit from a bit of company over a cup of tea or coffee.
The idea is part of the “Compassionate Community Nantwich” initiative to address any shortfall in social connectedness and its impact on wellbeing and ill health.
It follows the shop’s ‘suspended coffees’ scheme which allowed customers to buy a coffee (or any other hot drink) and pay for a second one – which can then be claimed by someone who cannot afford it themselves.
Denise said: “We already encourage customers to share tables, so the chatty tables are just an extension of the hospitality we offer at the bookshop.
“We would love anyone in need of company, young or old to come and make new friends over a lovely hot or cold drink.”

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
