Introducing the Coffee Shop eCommerce Starter Template

If it’s cold and chilly in your part of the world this January, you’re not alone. There’s nothing like a cozy coffee shop and a wonderfully brewed cup of coffee to take the chill off and warm us up inside. To celebrate that vibe, we’re excited to introduce you to a free new Kadence Starter Template: Coffee Shop, perfect to warm the hearts of anyone visiting your new Kadence-powered site.

Highlights of the Coffee Shop Starter Template

The Coffee Shop Starter Template uses the power of Kadence Theme and Kadence Blocks to provide a framework that showcases your cafe’s commitment to the perfect roast, your relaxing atmosphere and vibrant community. Adding your unique content is easy.

Starter Content Inspires Creativity

The Coffee Shop Starter Template is more than just blank pages. We’ve curated thoughtful content and imagery, all of which can be reused for your own cafe or coffee shop. Or, if your local pour over aficionado is a photography expert and Instagram influencer, use your own supplied photography for a unique look that showcases your local artisans. Coffee Shop gets you started quickly, but what you build upon this foundation is completely up to you.

Here are some of the pre-built pages that come with the Coffee Shop starter template:

• Home
• Coffee Beans (shop page) 
• Six example product pages
• Checkout, account and other WooCommerce-specific pages 
• Roasting
• The Menu
• Our Story
• Light Reading (blog page)
• Six example blog post pages
• Contact

Leverage the power of WooCommerce to sell your products

WooCommerce is the premier choice for eCommerce sites using WordPress, and this free Kadence Starter Template has everything you need to get your roasts in front of customers, no matter where they are in the world.

With many eCommerce installations, showing numerous product photos often helps store owners improve their conversion rates by showcasing more product benefits and options.
