Giving them codes that relate to the total cost of their receipt, so for example 1 coffee = 30 minutes, 2 = 60 so that way when you have a group you each get 30 minutes or something. Now there is a good startup idea... ;-)

I've seen this done in many (unmemorable) places.

for me this is the right solution.... the market wants a place to work, have internet, drink coffee, etc.

just charge for it... according to consumption (time)
