cafe regular

Familiar coffee face

A cafe regular is someone who frequents a particular coffee shop or cafe habitually enough to be recognized by staff: The baristas know all the cafe regulars by name.

The term implies a comfortable, familiar relationship with the establishment—someone whose order might be anticipated or whose usual table is understood.
