But sometimes when we say “unlike any other place” people tell us:

“You’re right.  It closes at 6 o’clock — unlike any other place we can shop.” 

And you know what?   They are exactly right. 

With the exceptions of just

• Medbery Marketplace
• Captain Nye’s Custards and
• The Garden Gate Shop

no other Roscoe Village shop stays open for very long past 6:00 p.m — even on weekdays. 

Does this make sense to you?

After all, most people who work do so until at least 5 o’clock during the week — don’t they?

So we’d like to know what you think.   Should the shops stay open past 6 o’clock for shoppers?
