Explanation:
* open: They *always* open suggests a habitual action, so the simple present is appropriate.
* buy: People *often* buy suggests a general truth, so simple present is used.
* are serving: *At the moment* signifies an action in progress, therefore present continuous.
* are looking: The present continuous is used to describe an action happening at the time of speaking.
* are coming: The present continuous is used here as it is something that is actively happening now.
