Coffee shops and casual dining restaurants have been the hotspots for such meetings, but they come with distractions aplenty. Here, the young and old alike discuss work over tea, coffee or whatever the vegetarian menu has to offer. Clearly the idea of hanging out in a casual place that isn’t quite an activity centre but not just a restaurant is catching up. The natural light gives an open-to-air feeling and since the ambience is quite casual, no one really cares whether you are loud. This is still that one place where one can have meetings without spending a paisa, expect for the tea and snacks.
