A Coffee Shop Employee Handbook
The first time you need an employee handbook, it’s already too late
No coffee shop owner sets out to have problems with employees. When you’re just starting out, an employee handbook can seem unnecessarily formal. But that mindset is setting you up for massive headaches later on. Having an employee handbook from day one is instrumental to building a healthy team in the long run.

Our template has formed the basis for over 300 coffee shop’s employee handbooks, saving thousands of hours of labor and stress.
Reassurance from people who Have made hundreds of employee handbooks
Making good employee handbooks is hard. We used to create them as consultants, and it always took hours upon hours. Now, we offer our template to all coffee shop owners at a fraction of the cost. It includes all the essential sections, so you can be sure nothing is going amiss.
Stay ahead of problems
Setting clear expectations from as early as your first hire means there is no ambiguity about your policies as your team grows. It also ensures you can avoid awkward conversations about things like lateness, phones, or dress code. Once it’s in your handbook, you can always refer back to it.
Avoid legal trouble
Our handbook template can help you develop a crucial tool to settle labor disputes before they spiral out of control. A fully fledged labor lawsuit can sink an entire coffee operation. Don’t let it happen to you.

Developed & Templatized by Coffee Shop Professionals
Over the course of 30 years of coffee entrepreneurship, managing over 7 cafes, and starting a coffee and education business, we’ve learned a ton about the importance of having employee guidelines and policies in which to hold your employees accountable for their actions and policies to hold people to. We’ve worked with HR professionals and lawyers to craft this very same employee handbook that we use in our cafes, and have made it available at a much lower price to save other coffee shop entrepreneurs the hassle and trouble we’ve gone through to create it. With a one-time investment, you can save yourself and your management many hours of labor and trouble of having to create a handbook of your own. Simply purchase, download, and edit as needed. Or don’t, take our policies straight as they are and you’re done in 5 minutes.
