A Russian cafe Ziferblat has been doing just that in Russia for two years already. The model was pioneered by a very passionate and modest guy called Vanya Mitin.
Actually, the article mentions it:
>Owner Daria Volkova, 24, was inspired by similar cafes in Russia, where she is originally from.
I don't want to sound mean; it's just that Vanya Mitin did really exciting things here and a lot of copycats used his model (which is of course how market works). Kudos to Daria for mentioning where the idea comes from.
