In 2.05 Reptile Boy, Buffy and Angel agree to go for coffee, and attempt to do this in 2.06 Halloween. Buffy makes a big show that going for coffee is an important date-like event in season five’s 5.15 I Was Made To Love You when she meets Ben and they have a painfully boring conversation using coffee as an analogy for their feelings for each other:
Ben: “You know, in case you want to get coffee.”
Buffy: Thank you. I just… I think you should know that I… (sighs) I kind of have this bad history in which, you know, we go get coffee and, well, it all ends with you leaving town and you just got here and everything…”
Ben: “Apparently we’d be risking a tragic chain reaction but… I just really like coffee. I think coffee might be worth it. And I would like to get to know… coffee better.”

I guess that, beer being Bad, coffee was a safe option ;) Indeed, that conversation about coffee makes you grateful that the Buffy-Ben relationship never got to go any further !
