Coffeeshop etiquette
How it works, without explaining it like you don't already know
You order at the counter, not at a table. Waiting in line is normal, even when it's busy. Nobody rushes here. Ask for recommendations; staff taste-test and know the range better than any label does. Don't mix alcohol with a strong session (see entry 30). And keep your phone in your pocket while you're in the shop: this isn't a backdrop, it's someone's workplace.
