coffee klatch

A casual, informal social gathering for chatting or gossiping over cups of coffee. A variant of the term kaffeeklatsch, a German loanword that translates as "coffee gossip." I host a coffee klatch every Saturday afternoon with other mothers from the neighborhood to chat about everything going on in our lives. These coffee klatches are my biggest social outlet, the only time when I get to really catch up with people my age. My grandmom and her friends have had a coffee klatch every Tuesday morning for as long as I can remember.
