“Only one thing is certain about coffee…. Wherever it is grown, sold, brewed, and consumed, there will be lively controversy, strong opinions, and good conversation” – Mark Pendergrast. Strong Espresso, lathered Cappuccino, creamy Americano, milky Latte, traditional French Caf Au Lait, chocolaty Caf Mocha or Madras Filter Coffee, which one do you prefer? Well, whatever you choose, a hot cup of coffee always tastes heaven. According to a French statesman Talleyrand, the recipe for a good coffee should be black as the devil, hot as hell, pure as an angel and sweet as love but when it comes to opening a café, what is the answer? Like we know what to add and what not in the process of making a cup of coffee; is there any rule to design a coffee shop that will lure coffee lovers? Have you observed the way Café Coffee Day, Gloria Jean’s Coffees or Barista have designed their shops? Full of colours, smell, coffee and a unique ting-tong special attraction, these places looked extremely inviting even from a great distance.So if you are planning to open an impressive café then you need a plan to design it. From interiors to exteriors it must look slurpy. Let’s see what else we need:
Furniture: Large sitting sofas and tables for group and smaller intimate tables for loved ones, the furniture you choose matters a lot in Cafés. Apart from table and chairs, you can include library shelves and include good books as people read very much in a café. You can also introduce designer furniture to add the charm. Add ample but classy lighting, electric supplies with charging points (people do work here) and comfort everywhere possible. Remember the first thing your customers would do is to sit and then decide anything else.
Entertainment: Lonesome readers, broken hearted coffee lovers, games enthusiasts and relaxation addicts expect entertainment from coffee shops. Adding pile of books, television, chess and backgammon boards, magazines, newspapers, gaming equipments and music would really spice up the environment of your café. A good environment invigorates the customer’s mood and improves socializing.
Theme: Authentic Italian flair with traditional styled chalkboard, rustic chairs, neutral wall colours and fresh fruit of baskets or rich French colours, essence of coffee, cream and chocolate, dark wooden tables drapes in white spotless cloth and European wall art, which one do you like? You can always decide a theme for your restaurant. You can make it old style rustic or modern, classy and elegant café. The choice is yours.
Personalize: If you make your customers feel like home, they will get addicted to your café. So indulge the customers in the life of café. Introduce a karaoke and name a winner or organize a painting/writing competition and hang the winner’s art on the wall. Give away free coffee sometimes and treat them. Surely they’ll love you for this. Add music bands to perform in your café and take the place to a next level. This way, your crowd will increase. Being creative is always the first step if you want to make a hit machine.
Don’t forget seasons and festivals: Seasons and festivals are very important for all of us because it give reasons to celebrate and enjoy. Decorate your café in the mood of festivity and launch a new scheme, introduce something new or organize an event. The more lively you make it, more love you‘ll receive from the customers.After everything, you cannot forget about the quality and the taste of coffee. That’s the main ingredient right!”Everybody should believe in something. I believe I’ll have another coffee.” – Author Unknownзайм на карту без отказов круглосуточновзять кредит онлайн
