Plan a Coffee Klatch for fellowship and fun!

A friend of mine recently threw an impromptu coffee klatch that was the best time I’ve had in a long time! A klatch café is simply an informal social gathering for coffee and conversation. It’s been a reason for friends and family to gather for years, over delicious coffee and great conversations! I’m planning to launch a klatch cafe next month and have thought of some fun ideas.

First, I plan to have a variety of coffees to choose from, of course! I’m going to be using my espresso machine, my Keurig single-cup coffee maker, and my favorite coffee container: the French press. I plan to have different coffee regions as well as different roast levels. My idea of ​​the perfect party will include some light, medium, and dark roast coffees so everyone can have something that tastes delicious to their taste buds. I also plan to have very expensive roasts, such as Kona and Jamaican Blue Mountain, in limited quantities for all the guests to try.

To be served with all that delicious java, I’m planning a nice menu. I decided to make a blueberry pie, a variety of muffins, a couple of different quiches, fruit, cheeses, and a variety of brunch type foods. I’m also going to be serving candied bacon and other savory items to give depth to the palate. This should be the perfect partner for different roasts of rich coffee and serve to fill your tummy with more than just caffeine!

Another key factor to a great coffee klatch is making sure everyone has something to talk about! Some great ideas would be to feature a variety of books and magazines on hot topics. Many people also enjoy playing a variety of games, so I intend to keep a couple of chess boards for those who wish to engage in a game with friends. Also, having a variety of music makes for a great time.

The key to a great party is making sure everyone has something to do, eat, and of course drink! In addition to coffee, I also plan to have pitchers of iced tea and lemon water. Sometimes when trying different foods and dishes, it’s a good idea to serve drinks other than coffee. So everyone has something to drink and snack while enjoying good company, conversation and games!
