How deep should a coffee bar cabinet be?

The coffee bar cabinet should be at least 2 feet with and 16 inches deep. This will give you enough space to place a coffee machine or espresso maker and a few coffee mugs. However, you can make the the coffee bar as big as you would like and however big your space will allow.

What is the best piece of furniture for a coffee bar?

If you’re looking to create a coffee bar out of a piece of furniture, the best products to use is a cabinet or console table. Both of these provide storage below and a hard surface on top to place all your coffee bar accessories.

Where should a coffee bar be placed in a house?

Typically, coffee bars are placed in a kitchen space, in a breakfast nook or in a lounge space—like a living room or sitting area. We recommend keeping it close to the kitchen or a space where people gather regularly.

What should a coffee bar have?

Choosing items for a coffee bar can be as creative and extensive as your want, but the basic items we recommend for a coffee bar are:

• A coffee machine or espresso machine
• Milk frother
• Coffee bean grinder
• Canister for coffee beans or coffee grounds 
• Coffee mugs and glasses
• Coffee simple syrups
• Sugar and creamer
