100 m2 Café

A 100 m2 Café — a 100 square metre café is an optimal format that combines a full professional kitchen, service zone and comfortable guest space in one efficient area; with proper planning, the 100 m2 size allows for sufficient kitchen capacity and an attractive guest reception area, which is the foundation of a café’s commercial success.

100 m2 Café kitchen — equipment layout

A 100 m2 Café — in a 100 m2 café, the kitchen typically occupies 20–30 m², with the rest used for the guest area and counter. Essential café equipment includes an espresso coffee machine, milk cooler, coffee grinders; a convection or steam oven for heating desserts and snacks; a refrigerated display case or fridge for showcasing fresh products and desserts. Kitchen work zones include the washing area (dishwasher, double sink); preparation area (stainless steel work surfaces); cold storage (refrigerator and freezer or cold room); see Café Projects. BHS provides 100 m2 Café fit-out.

Café dining area and counter — interior and furniture

A 100 m2 Café — the guest area in a 100 m2 café typically includes 40–60 seats with table and chair combinations; it is important that the guest area is aesthetically appealing, comfortable and aligned with the café’s concept. Table and chair selection — mid-sized tables (70x70 cm or 80x80 cm) with 2–4 chairs each are suitable for cafés; tables should be rearrangeable to accommodate larger groups. Café counter — the counter is the café’s focal point; it includes the espresso machine, dessert display, and cash register system; a smooth customer flow from entrance to counter is a key planning criterion; see Café Project 1.

HACCP layout for a 100 m2 café kitchen

A 100 m2 Café — the café kitchen layout follows HACCP food hygiene principles from the design stage. Clean and dirty flow — in the kitchen layout, fresh and prepared food move along separate paths; the dirty dishwashing area is separated from the preparation zone. Ventilation — proper ventilation with a steam extractor above the hot equipment zone is essential in a café kitchen; correct ventilation prevents moisture and grease buildup. Hygienic surfaces — stainless steel work surfaces and polyethylene-coated floors are required under HACCP. BHS provides 100 m2 Café fit-out that meets sanitary standards.
