english coffee 

A euphemism used by office workers when going to the pub to grab a pint (typically beer). Whilst drinking at work may be frowned upon, grabbing coffee with your fellow colleagues is widely socially acceptable. Hence English Coffee.

"English" can also be commonly replaced with "Russian" or "Irish", though these are considered less subtle and may blow one's cover.

"I had a long day mate, Lets grab an English coffee this afternoon."
