When I hear "beans", I think runner beans, baked beans etc. I think using someone's name is a good idea, it helps to build up customer loyalty if they feel they are supporting a real person.

I'd go for Lu's or Coffee at 41 or Coffee on the Green or similar - nothing punny.

Covfefe is a winner 😂

Café Bombon

Café Solo

I agree about pun names. I never think they are places to be taken seriously.
What about using the street name eg Main Street Coffee.
Bake and Bean
Bake and Brew
Artisan coffee and cake
Number 41 - bakery and coffee house

Or something simple like
Cup
Mug
Bean
Crumb
Stir

*Not places to be taken seriously

SleepFreeZone · 22/06/2017 09:41

I like the suggestions of using the address as the name.

The Coffee Bean

CryptoFascist · 22/06/2017 09:47

Lulu's

What was the building before?

Loved a coffee shop called The Fire Station because that's what it had been.

Beanhouse?Grin

ElspethFlashman · 22/06/2017 09:49

Early Bird Café.

Cos you're going to get commuters and mums dropping off the kids to school.

EssentialHummus · 22/06/2017 09:50

riz we've got the New Cross Laundry Centre nearby. It's a Korean restaurant, obviously Grin

ArchieStar · 22/06/2017 09:52

Whole latte love is my fave!!

If you're near me I'd move in Grin

Germgirl · 22/06/2017 10:18

We have the 'same font as Costa' thing here too. It's called Resta. Which means nothing as far as I can tell. From a distance it looks like a Costa at first glance.

CryptoFascist · 22/06/2017 10:21

Caffiends

ChildishGambino · 22/06/2017 10:22

There's one near me called Black Goo - genius!

RiversrunWoodville · 22/06/2017 10:33

Hot Pot or I like Cafe

BarbaraofSeville · 22/06/2017 10:37

I know a coffee shop in a garden centre that's called Hosta Coffee, which I think is very clever.

No suggestion for the OP but I hate Grabit and talk of grabbing coffee and food - sorry to the person who suggested that.
