Let’s grab coffee, tea, or frozen drink and hang out with very nice people. Enjoy chatting, make friends, practice social skills, and have fun!

We usually stay until 9 pm, the cafe is closed. Come and go anytime.

This is a safe place with nonjudgemental people in a relaxed setting. There is nothing to hide or feel ashamed about. We all understand each other and can sympathize.

Coming to our events is the first step! We just chat about casual topics. We never force you to speak up in our group. If you are still too anxious to come to the meeting, please feel free to contact me.

You don’t want to talk? It’s ok. You can just sit and listen to other people. You can enjoy coffee, tea, pastries, sandwiches, and many other things.

Meet Friends with Coffee/Tea - Ann Arbor

Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea

Join us for a relaxed get-together at Cafe Boba! If you're looking to make new friends and like casually dining out at bubble tea shops, this is the perfect opportunity.

**Good to know:** This event is posted in 3 different West Michigan groups, so actual attendance will be higher than what's shown here.

Our mixers are more than just social gatherings - they're a gentle form of self improvement and self help through meaningful conversation and connection. Many regulars tell us these evenings have helped them build confidence and expand their perspectives.

When you arrive, mention you're with the Meetup group to receive 10% off your order - a nice little perk for joining us!

We're proud to be part of the International Friend Connection network, which brings people together in over 50 cities worldwide.

Everyone is welcome, and we're committed to maintaining a safe, respectful environment in line with Meetup's conduct policy ([https://meetu.ps/3kzYxt](https://meetu.ps/3kzYxt))

Looking forward to meeting you there!
