Cafe Consultancy
A good cafe is more than good coffee. Guests return when the soul of the space, the character of the menu and the rhythm of service come together as one. Our cafe consultancy builds that whole with you.
Chef Tufan Pehlivan's 25-plus years of kitchen experience inform every decision, from concept through to menu. We aim for originality in product development, consistency in recipes and discipline in food cost. We follow trends — we never surrender your identity to them.
From the barista station to the kitchen, from service flow to staff training, we cover the whole operation. For new openings we manage the journey end to end; for existing cafes we strengthen what already works.
The Scope
Concept & Brand Development
We define who your cafe is for and what it promises. The concept becomes one consistent character across space, menu and service.
Menu & Product Development
From coffee pairings to signature items, we develop a menu that belongs to your concept. Every recipe is standardised down to the gram.
Barista & Bar Workflow
We organise the bar station for speed and consistency, so the quality in the cup holds even at peak hours.
Service & Kitchen Operations
We structure the flow between kitchen and floor, from order to table. The operation gets simpler; the guest experience gets smoother.
Staff Training
We train your team in product knowledge, service standards and guest communication, so your character carries through every shift.
Opening Consultancy
We plan and manage your opening together, so day one runs as if it had been rehearsed for months.
Step by Step
Concept Discovery
We listen to your vision, your space and your audience, then position your cafe through local and competitive analysis.
Menu & Operations Design
We design the menu, recipes, bar and kitchen flow around the concept. Food cost targets are set at this stage.
Training & Setup
We train your team, set up the stations and stress-test the system through trial services. Every rough edge is smoothed before opening.
Opening & Follow-up
We are beside you at opening — and afterwards, we keep refining the system together through sales data and guest feedback.
Good to Know
Yes — in fact, this is the best time. Getting involved before concept, location and menu decisions are locked in prevents costly mistakes from the start. We test your idea together and build it on solid ground.
