Cafés millwork by Sandha Woodworks
Hospitality & Food Service

Cafés

Espresso-bar and specialty-café millwork — pastry cases, coffee bars, retail merchandising.

Recent work: Coffee Island Toronto and independent café rollouts.

About this sub-sector

Independent and specialty coffee brands live and die by the bar. It has to work for the barista and welcome the guest.

Sandha builds specialty café scope — espresso-bar counters, pastry cases, retail merchandise walls and communal-table millwork.
