espresso bar

Cappuccino service spot

An espresso bar is a café or counter specializing in espresso-based coffee drinks—espresso shots, cappuccinos, lattes, and the like.

The term emphasizes the European-style preparation and the bar-like counter where drinks are often served: We grabbed coffee at the espresso bar downstairs.

Some espresso bars also serve light food or pastries.
