Three café tricks that cost nothing, for one of the trickiest places to follow a conversation.
1. Pick the seat with your back to a wall, well away from the coffee machine and the door.
2. Sit with your back to the window, so the light falls on your friends' faces, not behind them. Seeing faces clearly helps more than people expect.
3. Go mid-morning, before the lunch rush. Same café, half the noise.
