How To Create a Summer Coffee Station Employees Will Love

A well-planned summer coffee station does more than provide caffeine. It can lift spirits, help coworkers connect, and give your team something to enjoy every day. At BostonbeaN, we help businesses create breakrooms that offer other options besides hot coffee. Our cold brew, iced coffee, and specialty drinks can turn a regular coffee break into a real perk.

Quick Tips for Building a Summer Coffee Bar

Setting up a summer coffee station is simple. Offer refreshing drinks, let people customize flavors, and provide all the supplies they need to make café-style drinks. You might want to include:

  • Cold brew or nitro cold brew
  • Iced coffee options
  • Flavored syrups
  • Dairy and non-dairy creamers
  • Sweeteners
  • Cups, lids, straws, and stirrers
  • Seasonal toppings or garnishes

Offering a range of options means everyone can find something they like.

Start with Cold Brew and Iced Coffee

Cold brew is now a favorite in many offices, especially when it’s warm outside. Its smooth taste and lower acidity make it a great alternative to regular iced coffee. Adding it to your breakroom gives employees another reason to look forward to their coffee breaks.

BostonbeaN has cold brew options that work for offices of any size.

Our Brood Countertop Nitro and Still Cold Brew system lets you serve both smooth cold brew and creamy nitro cold brew with just a button press. It gives you fresh drinks every time, without needing a fridge or constant refills, so it’s easy for busy offices.

If you want something compact, the Sail Away Countertop Nitro Cold Brew system serves organic nitro cold brew right from the counter, with no kegs or tanks needed.

For bigger teams, a kegerator system might be best. It can serve nitro cold brew, still cold brew, iced tea, and more from several taps, and BostonbeaN takes care of delivery and maintenance.

If you want something quick and easy, Wandering Bear Cold Brew comes in ready-to-drink flavors like Straight Black, Vanilla, Mocha, Hazelnut, Caramel, and Decaf. Employees can enjoy café-quality drinks any time during the day.

Let Employees Customize Their Drinks

Letting employees customize their drinks is one of the simplest ways to make your summer coffee station better.

Keep your coffee bar stocked with flavored syrups, different creamers, dairy-free milks, sweeteners, and ice. This way, employees can make iced lattes, flavored cold brews, or iced coffee just how they like it.

By offering choices for different diets, you make the breakroom more welcoming and coffee breaks more enjoyable for everyone.

Don’t Forget the Extras

The best coffee stations include everything employees need in one convenient location. Keep your station fully stocked with cups, lids, napkins, stirrers, straws, and sweeteners so making a drink is quick and easy.

Want to make your summer coffee bar even more exciting? Pair your cold brew station with refreshing hydration options or frozen coffee treats from ColdSnap for an extra-special seasonal perk that employees will appreciate.

A Better Breakroom Starts with Better Coffee

A great summer coffee station is about more than serving beverages. It creates opportunities for employees to recharge, connect with coworkers, and enjoy a small moment in their day. By offering premium cold brew, customizable drinks, and refreshing seasonal options, you can turn your breakroom into one of the most popular spaces in the office.
