coffeeshops

Barista's typical workplace

Coffeeshops are establishments that serve coffee and light refreshments.

The term typically describes casual cafés where people gather to drink coffee, work, or socialize: I spent the afternoon writing at a coffeeshop.

In the Netherlands, coffeeshops are licensed establishments where cannabis is sold and consumed—distinct from coffee houses, which serve only beverages.
