Coffee may be known by many names, nectar of the gods, life's Golden elixir, liquid crack; but the truth is that coffee is just that. A stimulating aromatic beverage prepared with a roasted ground bean like seeds of a tropical tree or plant; coffee is also the result of the seeds of that tree, coffee is also a color. But in the 21st century world of cafés and coffee shops, it's true that coffee may be the world’s most popular beverage. Ranking right alongside water and tea, coffee is consumed worldwide and is enjoyed by a great many to a great extent.

Although we tended to go bit easier on our sitcoms. We hung up the hat at cheers influence of the psycho reality of Jerry Seinfeld and his buddies at the coffee shop or Joey, Ross, Rachel, Phoebe, Chandler, and Monica at their fictionalized, Manhattan by way of Los Angeles coffee shop on the TV show Friends. In both Seinfeld and Friends I think we saw an area where people to congregate, get together, share things, laugh, and always leave them coming back for more.
Such is the lore of good banter and good coffee.
