coffee klatches
Casual morning meetups
Coffee klatches are informal social gatherings, typically among neighbors or friends, centered around drinking coffee and conversation.
The term comes from German *Kaffeeklatsch* (coffee + gossip).
The gatherings are often associated with suburban homemakers meeting in the morning, though the term applies to any casual get-together over coffee: The retirees had their weekly coffee klatch at the diner.
