English coffeehouses in the 17th and 18th centuries were public social places where men would meet for conversation and commerce.

Travellers introduced coffee as a beverage to England during the mid-17th century; previously it had been consumed mainly for its supposed medicinal properties. Coffeehouses also served tea and hot chocolate as well as a light meal.
