How Do You Order at a Coffee House
About the Guide
This guide shows you the five things you might need to specify for coffee house drinks:
- Drink (a name from menu, e.g. Cappuccino)
- Temperature (hot or iced)
- Size (each shop might have different names. Know how many ounces you like)
- Milk (what kind)
- Sweetener (what kind and how much)
Backstory
I have friends who run a coffee house.
I asked them what kinds of things customers have trouble with, that a guide might help.
The first thing was “what’s in the drinks.” For example, what makes a Cappuccino different from a Flat White. So I made some stickers for that (available in the shop)!
When I showed them the stickers, we were talking about what else customers have trouble with, and they said sometimes people forget to mention something about their order… maybe they wanted it iced, but they didn’t say iced, so it came out hot. Or maybe they forgot to mention they wanted oat milk. Or Stevia for the sweetener.
So I made this guide, that shows you the five things you might specify while ordering. I printed up a batch of the cards, and they were a huge hit! Now you can print them at home, or order some nicely printed ones for yourself!
