Coffee Shop Tycoon

Coffee Shop Tycoon is a management game about running a coffee business, from sourcing and roasting beans to staffing shops and competing with other businesses. You make decisions about your products, employees, finances, marketing and shop design, with the aim of growing from a single café into a franchise.

Make and roast coffee

Choose from over 1,000 real green coffee beans from around the world. Each variety has its own tasting notes and responds differently to roasting, so you can create blends and flavors by adjusting the roasting process. You can set roasting profiles for staff, unlock bean varieties and take on roasting challenges.

Design drinks by choosing ingredients such as sugar and whipped cream, and create seasonal beverages. Specialty drinks and food help build your shop’s reputation. You can also pack and design bags for your coffee.

Run your shops

Hire, train and manage staff, including baristas, and unlock employee specializations. Balance income and expenses, manage key resources and take out loans to fund growth. Marketing campaigns can attract customers, while research lets you add services such as Wi-Fi and rewards programs.

Choose locations with different styles, then customize each shop with furniture, decorations, wall colors, floors and a logo. You can expand from one shop into a franchise and manage the business from your headquarters.

Compete and expand

Other coffee shops compete for the same customers. You can try to outcompete them or, if your business grows powerful enough, buy them out. The game also lets you buy and sell stocks in other companies; acquiring competitors can unlock unique perks and logos as you build toward a coffee monopoly.

Seasonal events give you opportunities to prepare special drinks, boost your reputation and increase your income.
