Coffee shop

Coffee bar with an espresso machine for small and big orders. This toy coffee bar has an integrated espresso machine and open shelves that make it easy to set up a little counter at home. It has a chalkboard for today's menu, two take-away mugs with lids and a sliding hatch next to the coffee machine – so the “barista” can open the hatch and hand over the coffee when it is ready. Create simple café play by writing the menu, taking an order, “brewing” and passing the mug through the sliding hatch. Then switch roles between barista and customer and practise simple routines like “pay, serve and say thank you”. The espresso part has details such as a brew head with portafilter, coffee capsules, a pressure gauge and two buttons for “grind” and “brew”. The buttons have a click sound. On the counter there are small shelves with holders where cookies can be displayed so the customer can easily see and reach them. The outside is calm, while the inside of the shelves has clear colour blocks and the front where the customer stands has a cheerful striped look – with room for more cookies or small things to sell. On the inside, facing the barista, there is an oven and extra shelves for storing the café's things. It can also work as a small storage place in the children's room when you don't want to use it as a “café”. Recommended from 3 years. Made of MDF and plywood. Two paper mugs are included. FSC-certified wood is used where relevant.
