coffee shop

A café where coffee, tea, and other light refreshments are typically served. I definitely need some caffeine before class, so I'll meet you at the coffee shop after I finish up at the library. Since I stop by every morning, I've become friendly with all of the baristas at the coffee shop next to my office. A: "You're meeting your blind date at a coffee shop?" B: "Well, yeah, we wanted to meet in a public space. At the very least, I'll get a good cup of coffee out of it!"
