One of the most requested features we hear from kitchen design clients is the desire for a dedicated coffee nook. Everyone wants to clear the clutter from their countertops and create a space that feels both beautiful and functional.

Coffee nooks are a perfect solution. They offer a designated spot for your daily coffee routine, complete with storage, an outlet, and sometimes even a water line for instant hot water. Inside, you can neatly organize coffee mugs, travel cups, and all of your favorite supplies so that everything you need is in one convenient place.

Many of our clients prefer to keep their coffee area tucked away. Hidden nooks can be designed behind cabinet doors, inside an appliance garage, or even within a pantry. Appliance garages are especially popular right now. These are built-in cabinets that house small appliances like coffee makers, toasters, and mixers, keeping them out of sight but easily accessible when you need them.

Hidden or open, a well-designed coffee nook adds ease and enjoyment to your morning routine. It is especially loved by clients who use a Nespresso, Keurig, or even a classic Moccamaster like we have in our own home. The goal is simple. Create a space that looks organized, feels intentional, and brings a small moment of calm to the start of each day.

We are sharing a few of our favorite coffee nooks from recent projects. Whether you are building new, renovating, or simply dreaming, these ideas show how thoughtful planning can make a big impact on both style and function.
If you are thinking about adding a coffee nook or updating your kitchen to better fit your lifestyle, we would love to help. Save this post for future inspiration, pin your favorite ideas, or share it with a friend who loves a good cup of coffee as much as you do. When you are ready to start planning your own kitchen, reach out to us and we will bring your vision to life.
