Internet Cafe’s and Gaming shops are a dime a dozen in most places. But that is in most places except Knysna. And that speaks volumes. Despite appearances Knysna is still a sleepy, parochial little place with a mindset to match. Blame it on the government or blame it on attitude and the seasonal economy, the fact is that there is no Internet Cafe that opens after hours on a Monday. And Monday only because the only place that does offer internet after hours is Chatters (..they are not open on Mondays). And although they don’t operate strictly as an Internet Cafe they have four work stations tucked away in a corner which people are welcome to use. What is more this service is not reserved for “Customers Only”.
I like Chatters, they have the right sort of attitude, an attitude one can’t help liking.
Besides them the only true Internet Cafe I know about is the Tawakal Cafe which can be found just past and behind the Swing Cafe on Templeman Square. They work from 08h00 to 17h00 seven days a week with two hours off on Friday between twelve and two. They also do graphics and printing.
Next there is 3@1 in the Knysna Mall, Postnet and Canon. But they are only open during office hours and besides the Main St Bazaar on Templeman Square and Cyberperk on the corner of Grey and Fitchat St, that’s it, as far as I know.
