Suggestion for my Cafe/Theatre?
-
Opening an intimate Cafe/Theatre it will hold between 30 to 40 guests. It does not take itself too seriously. The shows will be comedic in nature most of the time. Musical satire etc. We will serve, coffee, drinks (alcohol and non) and basic light menu and hors d'oeuvres menu. I do not want it to have Coffee or hors d'oeuvres in the name. It will be timed seating by reservations – example 6:30 or 7:00 Dinner seating – 7:30 Hors d'oeuvres/dessert seating and 8:00 Show Only seating. So it will be operated a lot like a dinner theatre. Any help appreciated!

Answer:
Get wifi, wifi will bring regulars and they will eat and drink. Hire well in the kitchen and have two cooks when its busy. Reg cook, and takeout cook. If seating 40 and serving 300 sounds good then do it. Have a specialty. Like The name of your cafe cupcake thats gigantic with comical musical themses. Make it $25 and donate $5 to to a local charity. Make it hip like The Lady Gaga Shoe Cupcake, The Sex In The City Cupcake, etc etc. Make it versions of red velvet cake and it will fly off the shelf. List your menu on food dot com. Make your menu available on your website with the ability to order and pay for food but also tickets and merchandise. Make it interactive.also with "click to call" services. Also click to call ads via email like "Congratulations this is a 15% discount on your next online order. If you already know what you want click here to call us direct and get your discount now". The "click here" will be a link that opens a window that you add your number to and when you submit your phone will ring to be connected with your phone to order. Create specialty butters like mixing strawberries and butter (homemade) blueberries, kiwi, etc, Even sell the butters. Create some merchandising too. Make HANDSOME tshirts that you could wear as formal casual. Like a black tshirt with small white writing by the breast and across the back. Black mugs, with a colorful logo, Coasters for when they have coffee and tea at home. Magnetic stickers for the fridge. Make it an experience. An iphone app to order merchandise, takeout, and delivery. Make it hip too. Take orders (as the owner) via your iphone app or squareup or intuit. Hats for sure, Black hat with nice logo. Mugs, coasters, tshirts, hats, keep it simple. Logo from logo tournament for professional look. Unique drinks in unique glasses. One 42inch TV with favorite shows, games on game night, popular show season premieres, season finales, etc etc. Make sure you have a great POS system like Dell pcAmerica's Restaurant Pro Express or posnation. Put conversation pieces there like a few aquarium frames from overstock. The Laugh Act Cafe, The Laugh Act Theatre, Comic or Comical Ovations Theatre, Stage Fright Theatre, Cupcakes and Comics, Dinner and some Groovy, Comedy Club The Musical, Sips & Giggles, The entire place MUST be a conversation piece. The experience must last days after the patron has left. also everything is for sale. Sell the frame aquariums, the unique glasses, the whole shabang. Have a raffle EVERY NIGHT! Fee is $10 and do tickets to your establishment, frame aquariums, digital cameras, and funny thing slike ONE plane ticket. Winner purchases the other one. Like I said funny stuff... Everything has a catch. Drinks are not listed. ICE is listed for $2 and beverages are $0.50 cents lol Plates are $17.50, food is $4. Crazy things all around the place. Get 3D sterograms too, That will drive them crazy!!! Make sure you have them for sale,in a frame, they will sell like crazy,,,,

Get a pen and paper and start to write down descriptions and feelings that you want people to associate with your cafe/theatre. Create a long list, maybe with words such as fun / exclusive / comedy / relaxing / entertaining. You get the idea. Once you have this list, that should drive the name of the place. Any name you choose should bring out the feelings that you have written down. Good luck! Lisa

Maybe some alliteration? Eg: The Drama Den, The Parody Pit, Satire & Supper, The Vaudeville Vault.
