What are cafes?

Cafes are casual establishments that primarily serve coffee, tea, and light refreshments such as pastries, sandwiches, and snacks. They often provide a comfortable environment for people to relax, socialize, or work. Cafes can range from small, locally owned businesses to large international chains. Many cafes also offer free Wi-Fi and seating areas designed for both individuals and groups. The atmosphere in cafes is typically informal, making them popular spots for meetings, studying, or simply enjoying a break.

Cafe staff often encounter challenges such as managing high customer volumes during peak hours, maintaining consistency in food and beverage quality, and effective communication within a fast-paced team environment.
