A new chain of coffee shops has opened across the Netherlands known as the Repair Cafe. The Repair Cafe offers a space for the community to come together and help fix fellow members' broken items.
The cafe was founded by Martine Postma in an effort to encourage others to fix their items rather than throw them away. With 20 Repair Cafes currently open and plans for more, it's clear that this waste-free mentality is catching on. For another dual-purpose cafe, read about FabCafe in Shibuya.
