Actually two of my cafés have a "no computers in the evening" rule, one also has a "no computers on the terrace" rule. Now that I think about it more, with fast mobile data I don't think network speed is going to be much of a factor for places like that.
For #1, if you have ten people all on Zoom meetings at the same time, isn't that going to kill your fast-for-a-café bandwidth?

Not unless they all start at the same time. If they start a little staggered from each other, there will be time to boot the first person out for trying to do a video call in a cafe around other humans before the next one starts.
Working in a cafe is completely reasonable, and wouldn't disturb other people. Taking a call is ridiculous.
Eh, from a noise level there’s no difference with having an in-person meeting at a cafe, which happens all the time and is not bothersome (depending on the cafe).
Even on sub-par infrastructure, a business-class connection should never be slower than 100/100mbps, and 10 people on zoom wouldn't be a problem. So the question becomes whether the infrastructure is garbage.
This depends heavily on type of connection. 100/100 should be bare minimum, yes, but for example Comcast coaxial business-class is still like 5-10mbit up.
Ten people can be handled by symmetric 20 Mbps. That's not that high. And you're not going to have ten people on video calls in a space that can only get 20 Mbps.
