1. I do, and I’m American. My local coffee shop seems to have people in it at all times

2. Some do.

3. Some do, some don’t.

4. Judging from the line at my local coffee shop when I get my afternoon coffee, yeah it’s pretty common.

5. We have 330 million people. A lot of them drink coffee. Some of them drink it in the afternoon.

   I often do.

6. If the opportunity arises I will drink coffee

7. We drink coffee at all hours

8. I do I drink it whenever I want.

9. Sometimes. I’ll drink it before going to bed sometimes.

10. We drink coffee around the damned clock.

11. Yes. I have small children. I drink coffee throughout the day to keep functioning.

12. If we didn’t drink coffee at all times of the day we couldn’t fuel the GDP or work the hours needed to increase shareholder value. It’s a necessity.

13. What answer did you expect? Some do and others don’t. Personally I drink quite frequently at work. We have an automated coffee machine, also an expresso one and nice grinder. When I do it myself coffee is testier, but quite strong.

14. Sometimes I do; often I do not.

15. I drink tea in the afternoon instead 🙂 has caffeine but feels a little cozier

16. Some do

17. I’ve been known too.

    But I drink decaf so I can pretty much drink all day if I wanted.

18. I drink tea, not coffee, but yes, afternoon is fine.

19. I’ve known quite a few 2:30-3 PM coffee drinkers. Not uncommon in my office to see people heading up to the coffee machine at that time.

20. Yeah.. evening too

21. Mostly depends on the person. Some people do. My parents are huge coffee drinkers and will drink coffee until 4 PM, eat dinner, and then switch to decaf after dinner

    Some people switch to decaffeinated coffee

    some people don’t drink coffee at all.

    Personally? I stop my caffeine intake after about 2:00 PM, otherwise I have trouble going to bed

22. Probably not as diligently as most Europeans seem to, but yes there are plenty of people who do.

23. I do on occaision.

24. In the morning upon arising.

    In the afternoon around 1 or 2 pm.

25. I do.

26. I do sometimes. If I’m working late I’ll grab a coffee around 2-3pm.
