ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Internet café

So imagine you are at home and you want to use the internet. But maybe your family doesn't have a computer, or maybe your computer is broken. What do you do?

Well, that's where an internet café comes in. It's a special place where you can go to use the internet on a computer that somebody else has set up for you.

It's a lot like a regular café or restaurant, but instead of just serving food and drinks, they also have computers that you can use. You usually have to pay some money to use the computers, kind of like how you have to pay for your food at a café.

The internet café usually has lots of computers set up, all in rows or around the room. They have chairs and tables where you can sit, just like at a regular desk in school. And they have really fast internet, which means you can do things like watch videos, play games, and chat with your friends online.

Some people go to an internet café just to check their email quickly, or to print off a school project. Other people might spend hours and hours there, playing games or surfing the web.

But no matter what you use it for, it's a really helpful place to have when you need to use the internet but don't have a computer at home.
