Circle
Coffee & conversation: meet people over a good cup in Riyadh
Riyadh takes coffee seriously, from Saudi coffee with dates to the speciality cafés opening in almost every district. This circle is for people who like good cafés and better conversation.
Where people do this in Riyadh
- Your own district: most Riyadh neighbourhoods now have speciality cafés a short drive away.
- Quiet corners of malls and cultural centres, which work well in the summer heat.
- Libraries with reading rooms, such as the King Fahad National Library.
How to find your people
- Suggest a specific café, day and time rather than “coffee sometime”.
- Choose somewhere quiet enough to talk, and keep it to an hour the first time.
- Bring a topic: a book, a trip, a place you both want to try.
First plans for two
- A coffee after work on Thursday
- Saturday breakfast and a short walk
- Try a new café neither of you has been to
Good to know
Meet in a busy café, travel on your own, and keep chatting in TruFriend until you’re comfortable sharing your number.
How the Coffee & conversation circle works
Members of this circle start plans that anyone in the circle can join, like a game, a walk or a coffee, and answer one quick question a week. Plans are always in public places and arranged by members. Friendship only, for grown-ups 18 and over.
