I find something very interesting here ... Maybe the photo is not techncally perfect, in the sense of sharpness, fr some but you achieved to capture the atmosphere of the place. I like also the slight tilt and this composition with the customers on one side and the workers on the others. Could be a movie scene in a way.
Best wishes

Hi Don,
I like the tilt, it is left to chance as as it is..no fancy photoshop etc, it reminds me a little of the aesthetics of Cartier-Bresson in a way - in that even the most ordinary scene has a decisive moment. Maybe it's a Leica thing. The focus on the stools is a good idea here too, it brings us into the scene, as does the angle.
Cheers
Justin
