Why have a cafe?

The buzz in school libraries, especially in high schools, is to create a space for a cafe. With all the hype on school's teaching nutrition--offering caffeine, sugar, and chocolate seems in opposition. But still, there is great value in having these cafes. What's the mission here; what's the main idea? How does a school librarian really get this to take off? and maintain this popular environment? What interaction takes place here between students2students, students2teachers, teachers2teachers, and school2community? How do we build this environment, so that it is a place where "global literacy" is the talk of the cafe?
