I never played coffee shops; I just played a lot of coffee shop-sized venues. I took every venue I could get my hands on.
I started by just sitting by the chessboard exploring things. I didn't even have books at first, and I just played by myself. I learnt a lot from that, and I feel that it is a big reason why I now have a good intuitive understanding of chess.
