Arabica Coffee House coffee franchise is a gourmet coffee house franchise that is sure to please the franchisee as well as its customers. Arabica Coffee House coffee franchise owners are not as restricted by a menu of proprietary company-owned recipes as other franchise companies may require.

Arabica Coffee House Franchise Opportunity
An Arabica Coffee House is part of a regional chain of franchised coffeehouses operating out of Ohio. The company was founded in 1976 with the first Arabica Coffee House in Cleveland, Ohio, and within the next few years, began spreading throughout the Northeast part of the state.
The Arabica Coffee House chain offers franchisees the opportunity to open any of their three different Store Formats, namely:
Kiosk/Cart-This is a fantastic opportunity for High Traffic locations with limited space. Operating expenses are greatly reduced with a high potential for return. Kiosks may or may not have food or seating.
Café-Our Cafes are the most popular concept we have. Cafes generally have between 15-35 seats with a patio and a Drive Thru if possible. Cafes also offer a nice food menu.
Coffee Houses-The old traditional Coffee House seats between 50-80 people with a patio. Coffee Houses offer a full line of Pastry products and a cutting edge food menu designed to fit into the culture we expand to.
Up-front costs and fees vary for the different franchise types.
The chain of Arabica Coffee Houses are all designed similarly, and offer the company’s proprietary blend of gourmet coffee in various forms, including traditional drip coffee, cappuccinos, mochas, and lattes, among many others, in both traditional and decaffeinated forms. In addition to various coffees, hot and iced teas are available, as well as pastries and other baked goods, soups, salads, and sandwiches. Menus may vary in different coffee houses, which makes the various chain stores slightly more personal. In addition to food and beverages, many Arabica Coffee House locations offer wireless Internet for their patrons to get some work done or simply relax.
