Is anybody actually buying a latte for $3? Or are they buying a socially acceptable trip away from the office for 15 minutes to clear their head, now that smoking isn't really a thing?

I don't disagree that sitting down and having a latte with someone (or even by yourself) is sometimes social/a break/a chance to work with some WiFi/etc. But for a lot of people it's just part of a morning ritual.
