Make your coffee shop look like a million bucks

It's no coincidence that high end restaurants and bars look like high end restaurants and bars. Here are some ideas to give that great first impression that will give your customers the feeling that they are in a swanky place.

It's all in the presentation

Want to make your coffee shop look like a million bucks? Try serving your take home beans out of solid stainless steel dispenser with beautiful brass fronts. Image the look of a whole wall of shiny brass to accent the aroma of the fresh coffee from within. Display Cafe in Toronto Canada has custom made dispensers that look like you paid a lot more for them.

Check out the new Model 200- 31" Brass Fronted Stainless Steel Dispenser that holds 30 lbs of coffee.

Equipment

Quality Baristas use quality tools. If your barista has high quality tools like calibrated tampers from Espro.ca and Professional Espresso machines from Linea chances are that you'll be serving your customers higher qualtiy consistent coffees, sspressos and lattes. These investments payback over time with great word of mouth referrrals and consistent repeat customers.

When creating an image for any customer facing business first impressions matter. Uniforms are a great addition to any Cafe's image but they can be pricy. Alternatively decide on the impression that you want to make and start with a dress code coupled with crisp clean aprons. Nothing says professional like your Cafe's name embroiderd into an stylish apron. Your customers and your staff will take you more seriously.
