The cafe's employees have been wearing shirts emblazoned with the message, encouraging patrons to grab their morning coffee while keeping 1.5 metres apart.

The shirts also feature a local cat and have been well received.

Owner Ricky Carver said when spacial distancing was introduced as a coronavirus measure, one of his employees Joe Anderson drew up an A4 sign reminding customers of the penalties imposed for breaches.

He said as part of the restrictions the signs were posted outside as a reminder for people waiting for their coffee, then someone suggested the message be made into a shirt.

"With the staff working with them on, it's a reminder about social distancing," he said.

"People have definitely noticed them."

He said the customers also picked up the humour in the shirts.

"They just think its a cool idea," Mr Carver said.

Mr Carver said on the whole customers had been adhering to distancing measures and he hoped people would remember seeing the shirts when they were out in public.

He said Jack Evans Workwear & Embroidery made the shirts which have the message on the back and business name on the front, and they also made some for themselves, without the business name.

Mr Carver said to maintain the social distancing he will not re-introduce dine-in service at this stage so customers will have to continue to wait outside and come in one at a time to order.

He said although the number of customers hasn't been what it was before coronavirus the support from the community has been better than expected.
