A coffee shop is a casual dining venue that primarily offers coffee, various beverages, light snacks, pastries, and occasionally simple meals. It usually provides a relaxed and informal environment where people can sit, socialize, work, or read, often featuring comfortable seating and complimentary Wi-Fi. Coffee shops come in different styles, ranging from large commercial chains to small independent cafes, and are commonly located in urban areas, business districts, shopping malls, and near educational institutions.
The main categories of coffee shops include franchises, independents, and others. Franchise coffee shops operate under a unified brand and business model, delivering consistency, brand recognition, and support to individual owners through an established system. They function across various city sizes, including metropolitan, urban, and rural areas, serving multiple purposes such as beverage sales, food sales, and more.

The sudden escalation of U.S. tariffs and the consequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are severely impacting the hospitality sector, particularly in the areas of imported food and beverage supplies, furniture, electronics, and kitchen equipment. Hotels and restaurants are facing higher costs for imported wine, seafood, coffee machines, linens, and smart appliances, many of which have limited domestic alternatives. Budget and mid-scale hospitality providers, operating on tight margins, are especially vulnerable, with some reducing service offerings or delaying renovations to manage expenses. Event venues and catering services are also experiencing disruptions due to increased costs of imported decor, lighting, and AV equipment. In response, the industry is turning to local sourcing for food and furnishings, renegotiating supplier contracts, and advocating for tariff relief on key hospitality imports.
