Well coffee shops can tend to keep you up with the local news. I never go to them anymore for years now. Used to drop by our bus terminal for coffee every morning to keep current on happenings in our town.

The problem with most coffee shops is you can't get a decent draft beer or even a glass of whiskey. Coffee is for breakfast.

I tried hanging around coffee shops but found I was not more hip and still a geek.

The term coffee shop has a slightly different meaning here...

Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory - Cannabis Coffee Shop Guide

I'm sure you don't mean that!

I sit around coffee shops in yuppy areas, wearing old clothes and mumble to myself...


Of course, if you could sit a a Cowgirls Coffee shop and drink a cup, I'd be there every day.
