Barcelona Cafe's 'Parking Meter' Coffee Prices Spark Debate

A cafe in Barcelona's Barceloneta district has gone viral for its unusual pricing policy. A coffee with milk costs €1.60, but the price increases to €2.50 after 30 minutes and €4 after an hour. The cafe's owner defends the policy, stating it's to manage the high volume of tourists and ensure efficient table turnover. "It's clearly stated on the menu," says the owner. Legal experts confirm the pricing is permissible under Spanish law, citing the establishment's right of admission. The video sparked a debate on social media, with many questioning whether it's fair, while others find it amusing.
