Why do some people drink coffee in the evenings?

Zeeboe asked:


I never understood that. Coffee drinking seems to be a tradition after finishing dinner with some people, and it’s always offered to my party and I whenever we dine at fancy restaurants, and I don’t understand that. Wouldn’t drinking coffee keep people up at night? (Although I guess that depends how strong the coffee is made.)

Anyway, for me coffee has always been strictly a morning beverage only. It would actually feel strange to me to have it at any other time.

    I drink coffee at night for different reasons at different times. After dinner it is offered as was to continue the dinner conversation of a group while countering the tendency of many people to get tired after eating a meal. Many people like the taste of coffee and are not effected by the caffeine so they drink coffee before bed. Another reason I drink coffee at night is I am a full time student and work full time so I need to go for 18 hours a day 7 days a week and coffee is the best legal way to help with that.

    I drink coffee all day, and at night (and never decaf). The caffeine doesn’t bother me, and I drink it because I like the taste. What DO you drink? Personally, I’ve never understood how anyone can stand the taste of coke, dr. pepper, or pepsi – they taste like curdled cough syrup to me….

    I drink coffee all day long. If I wake up and don’t have coffee within about 2 hrs I get headaches. Yeah I know I’m addicted, I just don’t care, at least it’s not powdery white stuff.

    The caffeine doesn’t always bother people, but what wasn’t mentioned is that some people like coffee with their dessert after dinner.
