Overview

A clearer way to manage your cafe coffee shop paperwork

A cafe lives or dies on three things — drinks margin, footfall rhythm and the regulars. The coffee is the easy bit; the running of a unit (licences, permits and music-use records where relevant, allergen records, takings reconciliation, supplier orders, staff and rota admin) is what eats the day before service even starts. LaunchKit gives UK cafes and coffee shops ready-made templates for that whole layer: business documents (allergen register, food safety records, supplier order log, customer complaint procedure, GDPR notice for newsletter and loyalty), financial trackers and invoicing, the free MTD readiness check and editorial guidance for planning around current Making Tax Digital rules, a pricing calculator that handles drinks, food, retail and seasonal menu mix, an AI copy kit for marketing posts and review replies, and a startup guide. Every template is UK-specific, A4 print-ready, and structured around how an independent UK cafe actually trades — daytime-led, weather-sensitive, with a regular book of locals on top of walk-in trade and a weekend pulse that pays the rent.

What we solve

Common UK admin problems we solve

  • Allergen information communicated verbally per order, with no consistent reference card for staff and no audit trail when an allergic incident is queried later
  • Takings at close reconciled from till receipts and tip jars, with no clean weekly view of what's actually earning vs what's just turning over
  • Supplier orders placed by text, WhatsApp and standing memory, with stock-out and over-order cycles repeating every few weeks
  • Self-assessment compiled in January from till exports, card receipts and rough notes, with MTD ITSA quarterly reporting from April 2026 now in scope
  • Licences, permits and music-use records where relevant creep up unnoticed at renewal, and conditions are managed reactively when an inspection asks
  • The same weekend-special posts, "we're open bank holiday" notices and review replies rewritten from blank every time

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Are these cafe templates UK-specific?
Yes. A4 print-ready, GBP, UK conventions for allergen, food safety, GDPR and customer-side paperwork. The allergen register reflects the standard 14 UK food allergens and supports your front-of-house process — it doesn't replace your kitchen's HACCP-style records.
Do the documents cover Natasha's Law and pre-packed food labelling?
The pack includes a labelling reference template aligned to the standard PPDS information UK cafes have to display since 2021 (full ingredient list with allergens emphasised). Check your specific labelling output against your council's environmental health guidance.
How should I check Making Tax Digital requirements?
Use current GOV.UK guidance and confirm any software workflow against HMRC compatible-software and digital-link requirements.
Can the pricing calculator handle drinks vs food vs retail margin?
Yes. The workbook is structured around three product groups (drinks, food, retail) with modifiers for size, milk-alt and add-on, so you can model true gross margin and decide where to focus the menu.
What file formats do I get?
Essential Business Documents are starter PDFs with a fillable business-name header. Customisable Financial Forms are browser-personalisable HTML. Premium arrives in two downloads: interactive fillable PDFs plus editable DOCX files, and a separate fill-online HTML bundle. The pricing calculator is an Excel workbook. The AI Copy Kit contains 4 editable DOCX files and 4 read-only reference PDFs; it does not generate content automatically.
