Requiring trusted patrons only? What is this, a members-only club? Nah, the captive portal is the way to go. Keeps it open but covers your butt.

E sounds interesting, but a WIPS might be overkill for a small coffee shop. Keep it simple with the captive portal, I say.

Haha, blocking ports 25 and 80? That's like trying to stop people from drinking coffee by taking away the cups! Option F is clearly the way to go.

Option C seems a bit too restrictive. Requiring updated software on all clients could be a hassle for customers and limit accessibility. I'd go with the captive portal route.

Captive portal with a disclaimer sounds like the best option.

I think option F is the best approach. A captive portal with an acceptable use disclaimer will help cover the coffee shop's legal liability while still providing open internet access for customers.
