### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must Have BEFORE You Sign a Lease -  Tips Post COVID -- Coffee Sales Skyrocketing
*by D***N on October 17, 2020*

I bought this book and several others before I opened a coffee shop a few years ago. I am returning to re-read this (just did) because these author's lay out many pivotal points. Yes, slightly put off by the UK style of writing and reference to the British Pound but so many observations other books did not cover...this is a must have. The author's are writing from coffee shop experience and even have "Types" of customers down to a tee. I found that section amusing. Very enjoyable read. Anyway by Kindle page 11 I knew this book was worth it!!! Just what was said right there - was worth it. *I do not know these authors.2020I own Flavor Laboratories and one thing we flavor are coffee beans - so naturally my coffee shop became my test kitchen. But I knew little about coffee shops or what to expect back then. Covid19 caused a HUGE demand for my coffee roasters globally and flavor for the beans because millions of people are working from home and no longer getting "free" company coffee! I found this mind blowing circa April 2020 and I feel there is no better time to endeavor in the coffee world. Consumers want to "experiment" and re-think their daily coffee. Coffee is only second to oil as a commodity in demand and why I have always kept coffee in some manner - in my portfolio. I feel coffee will be barter material also if the currencies begin to flail.Without being a "spoiler" I can stress Chapter One in this book is pivotal. The wrong landlord/lease could be your only mistake (but a bad one.) If they see you making money, your lease could go way up upon renewal - or they could decide the landlords 'wife' suddenly wants a coffee shop [in YOUR space] or they could put someone who boils collard greens next to your unit (this DID happen to me!) Collard greens stink in case you did not know it...so I would be WEBSITE heavy in my investments so that you retain your customers even if brick and mortars fail or have to be moved. "The intangibles."Hiring as been very hard in 2020 so probably the only big issue most books like these would not know when written. I can also say "roasting" is a whole different ball game and I opted not to roast at my shop because of all the dust and heat. This book does not get into roasting - which is fine by me.The way I have have always hired is to go into a big place like Walmart, ask a staff a few stupid questions and if they keep smiling and answering..and trying to problem solve for me -- I usually figure out if they have been there long term or just short term. [Short term is open game] If I like them I pay them twice as much and train them well. Your only as strong as your weakest link and staff being happy is EVERYTHING for brick and mortars. No one wants to see faces changing. Invest in your staff.Oh, last thing. CHECK YOUR WATER SOURCES! I never thought to test the water coming from the space I was first wanting to rent a space for a coffee shop! When I did, it was the worst and unfixable due to ground saturation, old pipes, yada yada so I went to distilled water to rule out everything and provide a great tasting cup of coffee. What was in the water allowed me to break the first Darth Vader lease. If you spend years attracting a spouse, why would you spend one day to get to know a landlord? I usually pull the county records to see if they love taking first, last and deposit from a new face every month.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommended
*by E***E on September 13, 2024*

This book is one of the best on the topic of running a coffee shop. The authors, who are seasoned coffee shop owners, have done a fantastic job of distilling all the details involved. However, I deducted a star due to typos, weird formatting with images, and the lack of a clear conclusion at the end of the chapter. If you're considering opening a coffee shop, this book is for you, but I'd recommend getting a hard copy instead of the digital version.
