How to identify a good cafe?
A good or high-quality cafe should not only have a cosy or instagrammable environment. Food and drink quality should be the first thing to consider as the main responsibility of a cafe is to provide good food and drinks to the customers. For example, a cafe should have at least one qualified barista to brew coffee. This is because coffee-brewing knowledge is needed to make different variations of coffee with coffee beans from different countries.
Compared to instagrammable environment, a cafe’s environment should be clean and hygienic. This is due to the customers’ safety should be in the first place. Besides, price is also an important factor as customers are more willing to go to a cafe with reasonable pricing. If the pricing is too high compared to the market price, the number of customers will decrease.
