Hamish Coffee House

We've been at 78M, Ranga Nagar Road for a while now. It’s right there in M G R Nagar. Most days, it gets pretty busy early in the morning when people are heading to work. I usually start the machines before the sun is fully up because there's always someone waiting for their first cup. The chairs are nothing fancy, just some wooden ones we’ve had since we opened. Sometimes the milk delivery is a bit late, which gets me stressed, but we manage. We make coffee and some snacks. People come in, sit for ten minutes, and talk about whatever is in the news. It's not a big place, just a few tables and a counter. I spend most of my time behind that counter. The floor gets a bit dusty by the afternoon from all the foot traffic coming off the road. I try to sweep it when I get a break. The sign outside is a little faded from the sun, but everyone around here knows where we are. It’s a simple spot. Sometimes the overhead fan makes a clicking noise, but nobody seems to mind it too much. We just keep the coffee hot and the doors open. If you’re walking down Ranga Nagar Road, you’ll see us there. It’s just how we do things here every day of the week. Not much changes, which is how I like it. We close up once the streetlights come on and do it all again the next morning.
