Coffee!

Hi mamas! I am in the works of opening up a coffee cafe. Coffee, matcha, tea truly is the first thing I think about in the morning to get me through my day as a mama of 3! I love experimenting with coffee myself whether it’s at home or coming up with different drinks at Starbucks (my coffee will not be $10+ HA).

I wanted to get feedback from moms. Whether you are a working mama or a sahm, what would bring you into a coffee cafe during the morning or afternoons? What would make it stand out? I’m all ears! Please give me as much as you can :)

A calming atmosphere! And tables that aren’t on top of each other so I can bring my little! 🥰

Maybe an online ordering system for moms on the go!

I like fun names, a good menu, pastries, plenty of room between the tables so you have room and can have a conversation and can bring your baby. Maybe even different types of sitting areas, like tables and a more casual sitting area like a couch (like Central Perk in Friends).

A little kids area with a few blocks, kids books and maybe a kids table

Quick breakfast options too! One reason why I will grab Starbucks is because I can get a fancy latte and a breakfast sandwich at the same place.

Honestly the aesthetics of the place would bring me in. If the coffee is great it’ll keep me coming back. And if there’s some sort of rewards system that will definitely keep me loyal and not choosing any other coffee shop.

Definitely little snacks and what sold me on my favorite coffee shop is they have a raspberry truffle latte which around me is super hard to find around me and I’m obsessed with it 😂. Also I like good calming vibes/ quirky decor. Maybe do coffee flights bc those are super popular right now and I always want to try multiple flavors! Or even a small book shelf of popular books at the moment for people to read while they are there ! I just have too many ideas bc I love the idea of owning a coffee shop lol. Good luck on your venture!!

Lavender vanilla lattes, comfy seating, local items for sale, kids corner, avocado toast, funky decor & friendly staff!

I ❤️ alot of these comments because I would agree!
Having kid friendly but super cool fun adult vibes is huge now being a mom.
Fun drinks, flights, everyone wants to them all.
Love the ideas of fun cool decor and the space between tables.
If you are somewhere cold you could have an outside fireplace for colder weather for early risers or during the day.
Love multiple things in one spot, make it easier for moms!

Peach lattes! Sounds weird but they’re so good. Selling books and houseplants and cute decor pieces, even if locally made, would be fun 💖

Avatar

Ooh where do you live? That sounds absolutely lovely and I would definitely visit your shop. For me it's definitely being able to customize my coffee and when I am regular the barista knows my order

I love little hippy hole in the wall kinda cafes where they have spoken word nights, different kinds of seating for different occasions (ie some tables for working or studying and some couches or booths for lounging). Some books or board games are nice too for folks meeting up to just hang out

@Brently oh love the selling books and houseplants ideas! She could even have local authors do book signings there (I have a friend who is currently selling her first book and local coffee spots and bars letting her do book signings and readings helps her a lot!), and the plants she corks even have a propagation area, where people can bring in propagations they've started for a discount on coffee and others can buy those propagations. I have pothos and aloe, and they are so easy to propogate that I would love an option like this to share my plants and get new ones, bonus is I can get a coffee for like a 5-10% discount on it!

These are all amazing! Thank you so much!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ If you want to share some of your favorite drinks too like some ladies did above, please do too!

Avatar

Chai lattes, dirty chai lattes, vanilla/hazelnut/caramel lattes. ALLLLLL the lattes!

Avatar

Thank you ladies all above for your insight- because of you I am able to reach my dream.

Lost friends since being a mum

Good morning! Can anyone relate to this!

My two friends and me have always been close since our early teens. I’m the first to have a baby.

One friend has big house, career and boyfriend

Other out of a long term relationship and being single having fun etc

Before baby we would all hang at my
Apartment, chat eat and just have
Fun.

Now I don’t even get a text to ask how my baby is, how I am. I really thought they would be awesome aunties. But honestly they don’t care.

They meet up a lot to do cool things, which I can’t be upset about as I can’t as I have my baby.

I don’t know I feel sad about it.

Am I over reacting?

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣
