Coffeeshops and Diners
Coffee shops and diners are located in towns and cities, airports and stations. They offer a wide menu of standard American food--steaks, fish, poultry, hamburgers, and breakfast items like eggs. Most will have a counter with stools plus tables where you can be waited on. It is customary to tip 15% at tables, 10% at the counter. There is no dress code. Some coffee shops and diners will serve beer or alcoholic beverages depending on location, but most do not. A good proportion of coffee shops in major cities stay open 24 hours.
