Case Study
Coffeebar
Website Design
Good Coffee. Better Connections. One Seamless Digital Experience.
Coffeebar has built a loyal following by combining exceptional coffee with inviting spaces, a strong sense of community, and a passion for bringing people together. With multiple café locations, an expanding wholesale network, and a growing online customer base, the brand's reach extended well beyond the walls of its coffee shops.
But as the business grew, its digital experience struggled to keep pace. Multiple e-commerce platforms, limited mobile functionality, and accessibility challenges made it harder for customers to engage with the brand online.
Ace Studios partnered with Coffeebar to redesign its website, bringing its online shopping experience, subscription services, locations, and community engagement opportunities together in one cohesive digital destination.
The Challenge
Coffeebar had established a recognizable brand and a loyal customer base, but its existing website wasn't delivering the same welcoming, effortless experience customers had come to expect from its physical locations.
With e-commerce functionality spread across multiple platforms, shopping for coffee, managing subscriptions, and purchasing merchandise could feel disconnected. Limited mobile optimization and accessibility barriers further complicated the experience.
The company's growing footprint also presented another challenge. Customers needed an easy way to find Coffeebar locations and discover wholesale partners across the country.
The goal was to create a unified digital experience that could support Coffeebar's expanding business while preserving the personality and community connection that made the brand special.
Our Approach
Ace Studios approached the redesign by looking at how customers interacted with Coffeebar across every part of its business, from ordering their favorite beans to finding a café or discovering a local wholesale partner.
We developed a user-centered website experience that prioritized intuitive navigation, simplified purchasing, and seamless functionality across devices.
A major focus was consolidating Coffeebar's fragmented e-commerce systems into one streamlined shopping experience. We also reimagined how visitors could explore the brand's physical locations, wholesale network, subscription offerings, and community events.
Accessibility was incorporated throughout the redesign, with improvements to color contrast, keyboard navigation, and screen reader compatibility.
The result was a digital experience designed to feel as approachable and engaging as stepping into a Coffeebar café.

The Result

The consolidation of its e-commerce systems simplified the purchasing process, while improved mobile functionality and accessibility created a more inclusive experience for customers across devices.
An interactive nationwide location map and integrated events calendar also gave Coffeebar new ways to connect its online audience with its cafés, wholesale partners, and community activities.
Most importantly, the redesigned website captured what had made Coffeebar successful in the first place: great coffee, meaningful connections, and a welcoming experience.
Whether customers were visiting a café down the street or ordering their favorite beans from across the country, Coffeebar's digital presence was better equipped to meet them wherever they were.
