The specialty coffee business is red hot, and represents one of highest profit potential businesses in the food service industry! Coffee shops have become a focal point of our culture. The local coffee shop is the businessperson's satellite office, the student's study center, the community leader's gathering place and the young couple's cheap date.
 
Join The Trend
Hard Bean Cafe is a break-out business opportunity, positioned to play a very important role in this red-hot specialty industry. The management is not new to the coffee business; in fact they are seasoned and experienced in coffee. They have developed the Hard Bean Café system as a simplified, turnkey package enabling you to open your doors in many cases for under $100,000 depending upon size and location related expenses. That is less than half the start up costs of most coffee franchises. 
 
Why Pay More
Hard Bean Café is not a franchise, so there are no franchise fees or royalty payments to bite into your bottom line.

Classic and Chic 
The stores have a truly upbeat feel to them, based upon a European Bistro theme. Product offerings include gourmet coffee selections, espresso, lattes, cappuccino, mochas and teas. Cold drinks include iced lattes, iced mochas, chai smoothies, fruit smoothies made with real ice cream, even Italian sodas. Fresh bakery goods are available, delivered daily from a local baker including croissants, rolls, and muffins. Lunch and dinner items include deli sandwiches, paninis, salads, and soups in season. The model is so flexible you could incorporate donuts, bagels, hand dipped ice cream or frozen yogurt, even grilled foods into the menu.
 
Your Community is Waiting
The café quickly becomes a great place to have a quick business meeting, to read the paper, study for an exam, access Wi-Fi or to “hang out” with friends. There may even be occasional entertainment such as live music or classic movies. Some Hard Bean Café’s have included a special section for internet gaming.
 
Size needed is about 1000-1500 sq. ft. Strip center, mall or downtown locations work well. There is even a kiosk program for office buildings, malls, or food courts.
