I love meeting friends for coffee. I love cafes. I love sitting down with a friend and just enjoying their company. There are always so many interesting people about in a café. There are students studying, older people chatting, kids running around, people hard at work on their lab top, others meeting clients, playing chess and scrabble. It’s life all around. Sometimes my writers group meets for coffee and we discuss our work.
Victoria BC where I live has many wonderful coffee places. There the Mokka House, open until mid night with not only coffee but a wide assortment of tea and samosas, chilli, mini meals along with desserts. Pure Vanilla has great soup, salads and Italian classics, including specialty coffees. Bean Around the World has organic fare trade coffee with amazing grilled cheese sandwiches.
