Model Answer 1:

Introduction:
Well, it is pretty common these days to visit cafe’s to have a cup of tea or coffee. Here I would like to talk about a cafe I regularly visit to sit and enjoy talks with my friends.

Where it is?
This cafe is right in the city centre. Actually, on Sunday we all friends are mostly free and in the evening we love to sit at cafe coffee day.

It is a very famous brand known for its authentic taste and quality ambience. This place has very comfortable furniture where we can sit for hours without being tired 8.

What kinds of food and drinks it serves?
One can enjoy a wide range of beverages and snakes, but we mostly order a cappuccino with a sandwich.

And explain why you like to go there? and What do you do there?
Not only the taste of food but the way it is presented is just amazing. The best part is that one can enjoy music which makes the experience of visiting this place enjoyable.

In fact, sometimes they invite guitarists to play live music as well. In addition, this cafe is quite peaceful and without being bothered. We can sit and enjoy gossiping.

I must say the staff at this place is also very cordial. They talk very politely and give the best service experience. However, this place is a little expensive as we pay around Rs. 500 to enjoy just a cup of tea or coffee with a sandwich. Fortunately, this cafe offers a few coupons and vouchers which help us to get additional discounts.

Conclusion:
Overall, considering all these factors, it is my favourite cafe.

1. What kind of people would like to go to a cafe?
I think people who enjoy drinking tea and coffee don’t have time to make them or can’t make them at home for some reason. Certain people also visit to study there or work there when they cannot do so at home.

2. Why do young people like studying in a cafe instead of at home?
I think it’s because of the atmosphere. Moreover, there are so many distractions at home. Adults prefer cafes because household chores at home might tie them down.
