Cafe

Café, Coffee shop, Coffeehouse

A cafe is where friends gather, linger and watch the world go by, so dreams set in a cafe often center on your social world and your need for a breather. Sitting alone with a cup by the window may mean you want some time to think without being disturbed. A corner table with someone across from you is about how relaxed, or guarded, you feel with that person. A busy, noisy cafe can reflect a social life that's full, maybe a little too full. Working behind the counter suggests you're juggling many small requests at once.
