Can you run your own cafe in retail?

I was hoping to have both a bakery with a cafe. Do they let you do this with the new GT expansion?
  • This would be nice to be able to have cafe's , bars, bowling alleys, apartments, hotels, etc.

    If you get Dine out you can create a Coffee shop/café. Also you could get a household sim to tend the Barista stand while the restaurant/café to make it look more like a café but have a kitchen in the back with chefs. I created a café with dine out, added a barista machine stand thing and used the GTW shelves to place a few samples for customers and for decoration while they wait for coffee and which ever item they order.

    I tried owning a retail/café with just GTW but my sims didn't get any money for tending or anything. Even if sims bought a coffee :neutral: Maybe save up for Dine out and then your Sims dream of owning a café will come true :wink:


    Where is the barista stand? o.O Is this an object or did you make one with counters and coffee machines? :smile:

  • No, I've only been able to hire a sim for a bistro machine in a retail store or a mixologist.
