The café only opened last year.
A midlands business had to close for a day this week due to roadworks "killing their trade".
Conor Hamill, from the Slow Roast café on Mardyke Street in Athlone, has noticed a decrease in foot fall since the works commenced six weeks ago.
They are expected to continue for the summer.
Mr. Hamill says proper signs for the his business and others should have been considered:
