In my neighbourhood in Canada, the local Tim Horton's (a sandwich/donut/coffee fast-food chain) fills up with elderly people chatting and gossiping every morning. I see the same folks through the window, day after day.

My mom goes to her local Tim Horton's every week to meet up with some of her friends. It's an informal drop-in social event, basically.

They sure aren't going because the coffee's good. It's because that's where their friends are.
