Any advice on coffee shop interviews? This is for a large and established company for a slightly-above-entry-level software position, the person I'm interviewing with requested we meet at a nearby coffee shop instead of the office.

Should I expect the same format as a typical in-office one-on-one interview, or is it likely they'll ask more oddball casual stuff like "What was your favorite vacation" and such? Should I dress exactly as I would for an in-office interview, or is there an expectation that I dress up a bit less (like lose the jacket keep the tie)?

I had an interview like this for a retail job.

Thanks! My recruiter did get back to me that I should wear a suit and tie, so at least there's no further questions on that front.
