I despise the cold weather – so much so that each winter I question why I live in Boston. One of the ways that I deal with subzero temps is warming up at a cozy cafe. Lucky for me, Boston has many wonderful cafes that are perfect for a casual date, catching up with a friend, or quality time with your laptop.
One thing I’ve noticed about the Boston cafe scene is that it has its own set of rules. Inspired by the fantastic and wildly observant Gabi Logan, I’m going to publish a special series on Boston cafe etiquette over the next few weeks.
As a freelance writer, Gabi spends a lot of time in local cafes, and has valuable tips on how long you can linger, snagging that coveted table, and rules for sharing a table with a stranger (without driving each other crazy).
Gabi’s first post will go live tomorrow, so in the interim please enjoy her scrumptious cooking blog, The 30 Minute Dinner Party, and her Examiner.com column on Boston’s Budget Meals.
