Coffee Shop Design & Layout Tips
When designing the layout of a coffee shop, you want to consider placement of equipment, furniture, supply
storage, displays and fixtures, but
also workflow. The goal is to achieve maximum efficiency out of the space, which means having customers enjoy
themselves and employees being able to do their jobs easily in the space provided.
Coffee shop equipment
generally includes coffee brewers, grinders, espresso
machines, display case, refrigeration space, cash register, etc.. In the customer area, there are
typically tables and chairs, a condiment station, restrooms and sometimes special features like an outdoor
seating area, internet workstations, a fireplace or sofas.
There may also be certain aspects of the building that the design needs to work around. For example,
plumbing and electrical limitations, window and door placement, fire exits and ADA regulations. Often, visiting
a variety of restaurants and cafes or even pictures of coffee shops can give you some great coffee shop design ideas for your own
business.
Coffee Shop Decor
After designing the floor plan and placement of equipment and your coffee shop furniture, focus on the coffee shop interior design and decor items. At this
point, you should have a good idea of who your customer will be and what they want.
Make your coffee shop interior match your customer. For instance, are they looking for an eclectic
environment, social scene, peaceful and quiet place to read a book, meet associates for business meetings,
bring their kids or pets, etc..
