I wonder, how would a restaurant, or a coffee shop, handle the confirmation times. Some transactions take over 30 minutes to get the first confirm done let alone 3 or 6 confirms as some suggest.

It's not required to wait for some veral confirmations for such low amounts. Specially if the owner sees the costumer making the payment. The risk is acceptably low.

It just has to include an adequate tx fee.
