Flick your Bean

(sorry, couldn't resist, it's all this bean talk)

We have 'No. 6' in our town. It started out as coffee and cake and has morphed into a really nice casual restaurant/cafe.

I think the name is nice, not pretentious or irritating, and gives lots of room for tweaking your business.

Unles you are at number 69... Obviously....

bridgetreilly · 22/06/2017 10:48

Lulu's.

alleypalley · 22/06/2017 10:50

The coffee cup.

Cheerybigbottom · 22/06/2017 10:50

I like the property number name idea, ie coffee at 41 or coffee 41

bridgetreilly · 22/06/2017 10:50

Also, PLEASE remember that not everyone likes or drinks coffee. Make sure you also serve good tea and that it doesn't get made with not-quite-hot water from the coffee machines.

YY bridget. Ideally tea should be served in a teapot, not made in a mug.

I know the OP said cheap and cheerful but tea costs pennies to make so just dunking a teabag in a mug when you go to the effort of proper coffee for the coffee drinkers is unforgiveable really.

The Snug Mug or The Smug Mug

Nothing to do with beans.....

Allthebestnamesareused · 22/06/2017 15:14

There is a already a couple of Stir! coffee shops in Cambridge.

In case that matters.

Allthebestnamesareused · 22/06/2017 15:15

Bean-O

Tazerface · 22/06/2017 15:19

Well, I have nothing to suggest but I'm definitely pinching one of these names when I open my own coffee shop in my dreams Grin

I like Coffee at 41 or Coffee and Cake best.

Dislike the names or punny ones, they seem a bit 'Kath's Kaff' to me. Of course, if you are a caff then fill your boots!

Tazerface · 22/06/2017 15:20

Oooh I like Snug. Maybe just Snug though rather than Snug Mug. Or Mug Snug.

CremeFresh · 22/06/2017 15:21

I like a name that sounds good when you say 'Let's go to ......' best.

So 'let's go to Lu's' sounds better than 'let's go to The Coffee Shop on the Green'

In my head anyway Grin

CremeFresh · 22/06/2017 15:24

Loobies ?

There's one opening near me in London called 'Mughead' - love that name!
