Stepping inside, there’s a wall of shelving behind the bar that draws the eye upward to show off the height of the space. A long concrete and wood bar has custom pendant lights made from coffee pots.

The wood display shelving behind the bar has plenty of space for storage, while backlighting highlights the design and the displayed items, as well as adding light to the interior.

Opposite the service area and under the stairs, is a small nook that’s large enough for some bar seating.

Next to the bar seating is another seating area that’s surrounded by wood with banquette seating, wood tables, upholstered stools and hidden lighting.

Steel stairs against the brick wall lead from the main floor of the coffee shop up to the lofted seating area.

Beside the lofted seating area there’s another room dedicated to even more seating. Upholstered banquettes provide a comfortable place to relax and enjoy a drink, while a mirror at the end of the room makes the space feel larger.
