When is the best time to come in with the least amount of people?

So, we've all (most likely) been at a point where you want to meet up with a friend at a nearby cafe, right? Sounsd easy. Come at 12, and we can have a chat. The problem now is that there are way too many people to have a chill chat. So now it's crowed and you're sitting in the corner of the room with a small table, with everyone yelling over each other and this sweaty feeling that comes with crowds, and now your hangout has started in probably the worst way possible. —- So let's fix that.

I want to give a straight answer, so I would first suggest not going on the weekends. I know that when you and your friend are 100% available, so is everyone else, so it's really hard to find a good spot with no one in it. The weekdays would be way better, and the weekdays leading up to the weekends would be the most ideal. Such as Thursday or Friday morning.

Now, what time would be the best? Of course, 12 o'clock is going to be hard, but if you're able to stay awake, I would say that the mornings between 7-9 would be the best. Since you're going to the cafe to meet up, you might as well get some coffee there and get some breakfast (—by the way, the [insert popular menu item here—] is actually really good, no joke). If you can't make the mornings, then around 1:30 p.m. to 3 p.m. would also work, with the golden hour also starting as well as everyone leaving to go home, so it's more like a time to chill with everyone.

In my opinion, the best and most convenient time would be around 7 a.m.–9 a.m. on a Thursday or Friday morning, or 1:30 p.m.–3 p.m. on a Thursday or Friday as well.
