The Coffee Club – Commercial Kitchen & Servery Design 🍽️

From Initial Layout to a Fully Functional Kitchen & Bar Installation

Project Overview – Modern Cafe Kitchen Design & Build in Kent 🏗️

Firstly, we were excited to work with Guildcrest Homes, a new client, to design and install a commercial kitchen and customer-facing servery in Kent. Next, we reviewed the client’s plans carefully. Then, we drafted an initial layout to understand the space fully.

However, as planning continued, it became clear that the original space would not support smooth workflow or meet hygiene standards. Moreover, critical zones such as dishwashing and dry storage were insufficient. Therefore, we recommended changes to improve efficiency. Consequently, the client considered an extension.

Fortunately, because the client was also the builder, they acted quickly. As a result, an extension added 20 square metres to the space. Thus, there was enough room for a separate dishwashing area and storeroom. Meanwhile, our design team refined the layout further. Additionally, we ensured that service flow was optimised. Furthermore, storage and prep areas were carefully arranged.

After that, once the new layout was approved, we finalised a bespoke kitchen and bar design that focused on:

• Clear separation of cooking, prep, wash-up, and storage areas

• Smooth flow between the kitchen and front-of-house counter

• Durability, hygiene, and easy cleaning

In turn, this created a professional and practical environment. Moreover, it ensured staff safety and efficiency. Also, it enhanced the customer-facing areas. Consequently, operations became faster. Similarly, the layout improved teamwork. Furthermore, the kitchen was flexible for future changes. Additionally, we reduced congestion and improved access to equipment.
