My 2c: if you're staying up til midnight or later, go for that coffee!
Caffeine doesn't have too noticeable of an effect of me, though, so I am biased. I suspect it probably does something subconsciously that I don't realise, but as far as conscious effects go, sometimes I'll feel a little more awake for 5 or 10 minutes max. But it feels akin to skulling some water, eating a banana, going outside into the sunshine and saying "I'm awake now!"
Cue: "I'm a social (coffee) drinker. I can quit anytime I want!". Seriously though, I usually only drink coffee cause I like the taste and it's what everyone else does. I don't even have coffee in my new house, I basically only get cafe coffee, and usually only once every week or two, and mostly as a social thing
