But if they were open at 6, 7, 8pm, I’d come in there and buy a coffee. I don’t see why that’s different than me coming in to buy one coffee at 10am and staying until 3 studying.

It’s very odd because in my college town (Davis, CA), some coffee shops stayed open very late — usually at least 8 p.m. — explicitly because students would stay somewhere late to study off-campus. I expected the same when I moved here and started grad school; that is, being able to study in a coffee shop in the evening. Granted my experience was pre-COVID so things may have changed back at Davis in the interim.

same at my undergrad (Ann Arbor, MI). majority of coffee places were open until around 8-10pm. i really assumed that was commonplace (at least in college towns)!
