What are your go-to spots for informal client meetings? Need somewhere quiet enough to discuss audit findings but not as formal as an office. San Diego has tons of options but looking for suggestions in other cities too.

Best coffee shops for client meetings?
Panera Bread is my usual choice. Free wifi, quieter seating areas, and most clients are comfortable there. Just avoid lunch rush. Also hotel lobbies work well - Marriott properties usually have good seating areas.
Coffee shop client meetings are fine for initial consultations. I switch to their office or a conference room once we're into findings review — that material deserves privacy.
