Why do bikini coffee places exist?
bikini coffee‘s seattle roots legend has it that in 2001, a local coffee stand called natte latte began featuring baristas in hot pink shorts as a way to stand out from the competition. The idea quickly caught on, and soon other stands followed suit, with baristas donning bikinis and other revealing attire. The majority of them started in the pacific northwest, where coffee is prevalent, and the competition among coffee businesses is fierce. To encourage sales, baristas started to wear bikini tops – after the approval by local municipalities was granted.Today, Bikini Beans is more than a coffee shop — it’s a lifestyle movement with multiple locations and a growing national presence.
