Coffee Shop Quality Inspection Checklist
This coffee shop quality inspection checklist helps managers and auditors assess key areas of store performance: safety and food hygiene, store presentation, and customer service, plus detailed barista and beverage preparation standards. Verify temperature logs, deliveries, handwashing facilities, and probe calibration, then review signage, merchandising, cleaning, and equipment condition. Evaluate queue acknowledgment, service times, staff appearance, table turns, and training records. Confirm coffee excellence through grind and dose checks, espresso extraction, milk texturing with thermometers, and recipe compliance for hot, iced, and blended drinks. Capture notes, photos, and corrective actions to drive consistent brand standards.
