How to read café survey results.

How guests rate you

The 1–10 rating and the recommendation question give two numbers to watch week by week.

What guests like

Guests tick everything that applies about the staff and the café, so the chart shows what you are known for and what is missing, such as fast service or good Wi-Fi.

Which drinks matter

The drink question with pictures shows what regulars order. Export the answers to Excel, CSV or SPSS on any plan and compare them with your sales.

How to get more guests to answer.

  1. Put the code where they wait

    Table cards and the receipt catch guests in the minutes they have nothing else to do.

  2. Ask the staff to mention it

    One sentence when the bill arrives reminds guests the code is there.

  3. Keep the photos

    Pictures of drinks make the survey feel like part of the menu.

  4. Change something visible

    When guests ask for oat milk or faster Wi-Fi, do it and say so on the table card.
