Built For Coffee Shops

Coffee Shop Chatbot That Handles The Same Ten Questions All Day

Opening hours, oat milk, Wi-Fi, dogs inside, gluten-free cakes — the same handful of questions land in your inbox and DMs every day. FastBots learns your menu, branches and policies once, then answers visitors any time of day. When someone asks about private hire or a corporate order, it captures the detail and emails it through.

Respuestas rápidas

Preguntas muy habituales que se hacen en las cafeterías

What is a coffee shop chatbot?

It's a small chat widget that sits on your website and answers the questions your team gets asked all day — opening hours, milk alternatives, Wi-Fi, dog-friendliness, allergens, loyalty card sign-up. FastBots trains the bot on your own website and menu, so the answers match what you actually serve rather than something generic.

Can it handle questions about more than one branch?

Yes. If your site lists each branch with its own page, the chatbot learns the hours, address and quirks of each one. When a visitor asks 'what time does the Shoreditch one close?' it answers for that location specifically.

Will it take takeaway orders?

No — taking orders and payments needs a point-of-sale or ordering platform, and that's not what FastBots does. It's there to answer questions, share your menu and capture enquiries like private hire, catering and wholesale beans, then hand those to your team.

How quickly can we set one up?

Most coffee shops are live in under an hour. You paste in your website URL, FastBots crawls your pages, you tweak the welcome message and tone, then drop a single line of code into your site. The free plan is enough to test it before committing.

¿Por qué FastBots?

Por qué las cafeterías utilizan FastBots

Answers The Hours Question Every Time

Opening times, bank holiday changes, last orders — all answered from your own website 24/7, including the moment someone Googles 'coffee near me' at 10pm.

Knows Your Milk Alternatives And Allergens

Oat, soy, almond, lactose-free, gluten-free pastries — visitors get a clear answer instead of a 'we'll check' reply that loses the sale.

Captures Private Hire And Catering Enquiries

When someone asks about booking the back room or a corporate order, the chatbot collects name, date, group size and email and pings your team by email.

Points Visitors To The Right Branch

If you have more than one location, the bot answers branch-specific questions about hours, address and parking instead of one-size-fits-all info.

Talks To Tourists In Their Language

FastBots supports around 95 languages, which matters if your shop is anywhere near a station, hotel or attraction with international footfall.

Connects To WhatsApp And Instagram

Plug the same bot into your WhatsApp Business and Instagram DMs so the same menu and booking questions get the same answer wherever they land.

Hand Bigger Enquiries To A Real Person

Weddings, corporate catering and wholesale enquiries are worth a human. On the Business plan and above, Live Chat lets a manager take over the conversation.

Keeps Up With Seasonal Menus

Auto-retrain on the Business plan and above re-reads your menu and specials pages on a schedule, so the pumpkin spice answer doesn't still be running in March.

Situaciones reales

Donde se gana el pan

Out-Of-Hours Menu Questions

Someone scrolling at 11pm asks about flat white prices and whether you do decaf. The chatbot answers from your menu page so they walk in tomorrow already decided.

Private Hire And Back Room Bookings

Visitors asking about hiring a space fill in a short form inside the chat. Date, guest count and contact details land in your inbox before the next morning's shift starts.

Corporate And Office Catering Orders

A nearby office wants 30 coffees and pastries for a Monday meeting. The bot captures the brief — quantities, delivery window, dietary needs — and routes it to your catering email.

Wholesale Bean Enquiries

Another café or restaurant asking about your beans gets sent a clear summary of options and is asked for volumes and contact details so your wholesale lead doesn't sit in a DM for a week.

Loyalty Programme Sign-Up Questions

The bot explains how the card or app works, who's eligible and where to sign up — without interrupting the queue at the counter.

Dog-Friendly And Wi-Fi Filtering

Two of the most-asked questions in any coffee shop. The bot answers honestly — dogs in the courtyard but not inside, Wi-Fi free for 90 minutes — so visitors aren't disappointed when they arrive.

Información sobre alérgenos y valores nutricionales

Gluten-free, vegan, nut-free — the bot pulls from your allergen page and notes that anything critical should be confirmed with the team in person before ordering.

Lost Property And General Enquiries

The chatbot answers the umbrella-and-laptop questions, points visitors at the right branch's email, and saves the team a phone call mid-rush.

Voz de la Cámara

Sound like a friendly local barista — warm, casual, never corporate. If someone asks about allergens, share what's on the menu but remind them to double-check with the team in person before ordering.

Establece el ambiente y las normas de la casa

Tell it to sound like a friendly barista, point catering enquiries at one email and private hire at another, and remind it to never quote allergen info as 100% guaranteed.

How FastBots Compares For Coffee Shops

Most independent coffee shops weigh up three options for handling the same questions over and over: a chatbot trained on your site, a manual Instagram and WhatsApp inbox, or a static FAQ page nobody scrolls. Here's how they stack up.

¿Tienes alguna pregunta?

Preguntas frecuentes

Las preguntas más frecuentes antes de que los equipos se inscriban. Si no encuentras la respuesta a tu pregunta aquí, nuestro equipo de atención al cliente te responderá en unas horas durante los días laborables.

Can the chatbot take orders or payments?

No. FastBots is built to answer questions and capture enquiries, not to process payments or send orders to your till. For takeaway and delivery orders you'll still want a proper ordering platform — the chatbot can point visitors to it.

Will it replace our staff answering DMs?

It handles the repetitive questions — hours, milk alternatives, dogs, Wi-Fi — so your team can focus on actual customers in front of them. For higher-value enquiries like private hire or catering, the chatbot acts more like an AI agent: it gathers the details first, then hands a complete summary to a real person on the Business plan via Live Chat.

Can it answer questions about different branches?

Yes, as long as each branch has its own page on your website. The bot learns the hours, address, parking notes and quirks of each location and answers for the specific branch the visitor asks about.

What about allergens — is the bot safe to rely on?

The bot can share what's on your allergen page and menu, but we'd always recommend a clear line like 'please confirm with the team in person before ordering if you have a serious allergy'. FastBots can answer questions, but it can't see your kitchen prep on a given day.

Can we connect it to WhatsApp and Instagram?

Yes — both WhatsApp and Instagram are native channels. The same chatbot that lives on your website can respond to DMs and WhatsApp messages with the same trained answers, so customers don't get different stories on different channels.

What happens when the menu changes for autumn or Christmas?

Update your menu page on your site, and on the Business plan and above the chatbot can auto-retrain daily, weekly or monthly. On the Essential plan you can retrain manually with a couple of clicks whenever you publish a change.

How are private-hire and catering leads handled?

Inside the chat, the bot triggers a short form — name, email, date, group size, dietary needs, whatever you want to ask. Submitted leads are emailed to the addresses you set up, and you can also push them into a CRM or Google Sheet through a Zapier or Make workflow.

¿Cuánto cuesta?

There's a free plan to test it with 1 chatbot and 50 messages a month — no credit card. Paid plans start at $39/month, and Live Chat handover plus auto-retrain land on the Business plan at $89/month. See the pricing page for the latest limits.

Does it work in other languages?

Yes, FastBots supports around 95 languages. If your shop is near a station, hotel or tourist area, the bot can reply in the visitor's language without you setting up separate versions.

Where does the chat live — does it slow down the website?

It's a single line of code in your site's HTML. The widget loads in the corner of the page like any other chat bubble, and you can adjust the colours, avatar and welcome message to match your brand.
