What is café short for?
The english term café, borrowed from the french, derives ultimately from the turkish kahve, meaning coffee. Coffee shops are popular gathering places for people to socialize, work, or simply relax. Coffee shops are on our list of food business ideas because they are a relatively low-cost business to start and operate. They also have a high profit margin, and there is a growing demand for coffee shops in many areas.The best way to plan a cafe business menu is to get together the dishes you want to serve and compare them against a few cafes with similarities to yours. From there, you may add more dishes and remove some.
