If the room were a bit cozier I could see it, but since it's in such a large space it seems more like a globe and art shop. Where would you set down your coffee cup or put up your feet?
Also recommending the French press -- cheaper, taste better, takes about 1 second to clean out after. It does use energy/fuel to heat the teapot though.
