Cafe World Tips and Tricks

When you use Facebook you will notice that there are a lot of fun games that you can play. One of the most fun is called Cafe World. This is a game in which you have to run your own restaurant and make choose the food that your customers will eat. The object of this game is to get higher levels so that you can unlock better items for your restaurant.

As a user in Cafe world, you will be given the option to change the decor in your restaurant, pick the meals that are made and earn money to enlarge your cafe. The aim of the game is to get higher levels. Once you get higher levels you can buy more items and you can also gift more items to your neighbors.

To get to the higher levels faster, you will need to play on a regular basis. You are in charge of taking the food off of the ovens when it is done and “serving” it. If you pick the right food and “serve” it at the right times then you will be able to make more money in no time.

The seating plans are just very important so it may take you awhile to figure out what will work best for you. You don’t want customers leaving before they eat and pay you because getting their food is taking too long to get there.

Each restaurant has there own buzz rating which tells you how the customers like your cafe. You want a higher rating, if possible. The higher rating that you have, the more popular your restaurant is.

Cafe World is a fairly new Facebook application game created by Zynga. In this Cafe World strategy guide, we’ll cover such topics as how to play Cafe World, how to win lots of money, and helpful Cafe World tips to help you succeed in the game.


Customize your Cafe World character – In the beginning of Cafe World, a screen may pop-up to let you adjust the appearance of your Cafe World avatar. Here you can change the entire look of your character by selecting things like different styles of clothing, hair color, and facial characteristics. You can spend a lot of time on this or just go with the default look for your character. Many people playing Cafe World like to make their character appear exactly like themselves but others are much more creative customizing their Cafe World character. There are no rules to this so feel free to experiment with it and have some fun.

Making your Cafe World character move – Moving your character in Cafe World is somewhat restrictive. That is, your character can only move to complete tasks such as cleaning dishes, cooking, preparing food, and clearing tables. You can do this by clicking on the target for each task (i.e. oven, table, etc.)

Customizing your Cafe – At the start of the game, you get a very generic looking cafe but as you proceed to earn more money and reach new Cafe World levels you get the opportunity to buy more stuff. You can then add things like new ovens, chairs, tables, windows, floors, walls, counters, and decor to decorate your space to give it a custom makeover or expand it and make even more money.
Cooking in Cafe World – At the beginning of Cafe World your first concern should be to buy some food to prepare. To do this, click on the oven and a menu will pop-up to let you select the type of food you want to cook. Once, you’ve done that you’ll need to prepare the food by continuing to click on the stove.

Choosing food in Cafe World – There are various menu items to select from with each costing you a different amount of money to make. Generally speaking the more a dish costs to make, the greater your profits. However, you also have to consider the time it takes to make that particular dish as well. Some items take much longer to make (i.e. days versus minutes) and can spoil if your don’t serve them when they’re ready.

Cafe points help you level-up – Cafe points are given to you for doing such things as cooking, cleaning, buying items, and helping your Cafe friends. As you acquire more Cafe points you’ll reach new game levels in Cafe World.

Buzz rating – In the upper right hand corner of the Cafe World screen you’ll see a thumbs-up image and a numerical value. That number represents your buzz rating. The buzz rating determines how many customers come to your Cafe. If the value increases, more people come to visit you and you’ll earn more money. If it goes down, so does your customer traffic and potential earnings.
Why neighbors are important – If you click on the “My Neighbors” link at the top of the page you’ll be able to see all your Cafe World neighbors. There you can invite and accept new neighbors to your Cafe. Neighbors are important because they limit what you can do in the game. That is, you need neighbors to work for you as waiters and waitresses at your Cafe. You can also earn more Cafe coins by increasing the number of neighbors you have. Hence, it’s important to continue to invite more Facebook friends to increase the size of your Cafe World neighbors and thus make more money.

Gifting to neighbors – Giving and receiving gifts in Cafe World is beneficial for all parties involved. That is, giving gifts to your Cafe World neighbors often encourages reciprocal gifting. The gifts you receive maybe something you and and many times they are something you can’t afford or obtain yet because of your skill level.

Helping your neighbors – Helping your Cafe World neighbors from time to time encourages them to reciprocate that act too. You can do this by visiting their cafes, trying their daily special, and leaving tips. Doing so increases your Cafe World experience points and your daily bonus.

Cafe World Strategy
Select menu items with big profits – When you’re deciding on what food dish to prepare, consider the cost of the dish, the cooking time, how many it serves, and how much profit you can generate from the dish. You can easily compare the profitability of food dishes by subtracting the cost of the dish from the Cafe coins you make (profit) and dividing that number by the cost of the dish. This value is also known as the ROI (return on investment). The larger your ROI, the more profitable it is to make such a food dish. For instance, the spitfire roasted chicken dish takes an entire day to cook, serves 800 people, costs you 600 Cafe coins, and earns you 3200 in sales. So our ROI for the chicken dish is (3200-600)/600 = 4.33 or 433%. In comparison, you can prepare the bacon cheeseburger dish in 5 minutes for 13 people at a cost of 15 Cafe coins and sell it for 52 Cafe coins. In this case our cheeseburger dish produces an ROI of (52-15)/15 = 2.46 or 246%.
As you can see from the example above the chicken dish had a greater ROI but there are other factors to consider such as the time until the dish is completed. Of course that not the only factor to consider when choosing which food dishes to prepare. One important factor you may want to take into account is the time it takes to cook the food. In the examples cited above the chicken took an entire day to complete whereas the bacon cheeseburger only took 5 minutes. You can normalize for this factor by dividing the ROI by the total minutes it takes to cook the dish. Likewise you can divide the total profits by the time to completion in minutes to see how much money you can earn on a per minute basis.

Plan food around your schedule – As you may know menu items differ in their time to completion when cooking them. Thus you’ll want to select food items to cook based on how much time you have available to play Cafe World any given day. If you have lots of time to play during the day, you can choose items off the menu that take a short time cook. In contrast, if you have very little time to play during the day, you can begin cooking food dishes that aren’t completely done until you’re available to play again.

Beware of spoiled food – When choosing your food items and planning the cooking around your schedule make sure you don’t forget about them or they will spoil. If your food spoils, you can’t serve it to customers and you lose any potential profits. Moreover, your buzz rating will likely fall given that you don’t have any food to serve and flies will be swarming inside your cafe.

Expand your Cafe – Adding extra building space can greatly increase your profits. You can use the extra space to add more tables and seat more paying customers. There are several expansion packages including the Corner Cafe, Family Cafe, Bountiful Cafe, Extravagant Cafe, Lavish Cafe, and Astounding Cafe. Each package is price differently according to the size of expansion.

Share the love – As previously discussed, it’s critical to assist your Cafe World neighbors and send gifts often as it’s beneficial for everyone. Again, you earn Cafe points when you help other Cafe World members and giving gifts encourages your neighbors to help and gift to you.
Use that skip button – Throughout the Cafe World game you’ll surpass accomplishments and be asked to post these to your profile. Unless it is something really big hit the skip button as many Cafe World players are annoyed by such things because it fills up their Facebook news feed. You can actually disable or alter the default permissions for Cafe World and other Facebook games as well as learn how to alter your Facebook profile’s privacy settings using our Facebook Guide.
Use a faster browser – Internet Explorer is probably the most popular web browser used to play Cafe World but sometimes stalls when loading pages. I’d strongly suggest that you download and use a faster browser like Opera or Google Chrome when playing the game.
Befriend the right way – Asking Facebook users to join you on Cafe World can be done the right way and wrong way. The wrong way is to annoy them by not telling them what the add is for or saying “add me” over and over again. The correct way is to include a message that says something like “Cafe World” or “Cafe World add”.

Become a fan of Cafe World – Becoming a fan of the many Cafe World fan pages and groups on Facebook is an easy way to find more neighbors to add. Remember that adding Cafe World friends is probably the most single important key to succeeding in the game. Adding more neighbors unlocks previously unattainable Cafe World items, helps you win more Cafe coins, and gain more Cafe points to help you level up.

Submit your tips – If you have any Cafe World tips or strategies, send them to us and we’ll add them to the official Cafe World guide. Doing so helps you educate other players and ensures the guide remains up-to-date with the latest Cafe World tips so your friends can succeed in the game as well.

There are lots of tempting options when it comes to the items you can choose to put on your Cafe World menu. As you advance to higher and higher levels of game play too, you only wind up unlocking more and more options in this regard. It can be very tempting to cook one item or another because of your own personal tastes, and really there's nothing wrong with indulging yourself from time to time. If you want to be successful in this business though, you'll have to make some more objective and analytical decisions when it comes to dish selection for your cafe.

Planning Around Your Schedule

The first thing you have to take into account when you're trying to decide what to cook is how soon you're going to be able to get back to check on your cafe and transfer prepared entrees from the stove to the serving counters. No matter how well planned your cafe world menu is, it won't do you much good if you don't get back to serve it in time.

Food that sits on the stove for too long will spoil rather quickly, and this is something you want to avoid at all costs. Not only will you lose the opportunity to serve this food, and so have to wait longer to replenish your serving counters, you'll lose the money you spent on the ingredients that went into making is. You'll also have to pay to clean up the mess which, while not a hefty sum, starts to loom larger and larger when you're not making money off of the food you're preparing.

Maximizing Your Earnings
Another factor to consider when you're making your decision about what to cook in any given situation is how many servings each preparation of that dish will create. This is important for a couple of reasons. One is that you want to be able to make enough food to last until you can get back to your cafe and refill your serving counters. That way you can continue making money all day and night, which is obviously the ideal situation.

The other reason this is important is because you need to have an empty serving counter when you're taking a new dish off the stove. If you're simply bringing out more of one of the dishes you're already serving, you can simply add those new servings to what was left of the old. However, if you have an entirely new entree coming off the stove, you'll need to have an empty serving spot available on the counter. This is a part of the menu planning process that is easily overlooked, but it can lead to a lot of spoiled food if you have entrees ready to come off of the stove but nowhere to put them.

Cost Per Serving
And of course, you want to pay attention to how much you'll make each time a customer purchases an entree. Maximizing this number will help you get the highest return per hour because it will mean you're getting the most out of each customer who walks through the door, further stressing the importance of your cafe world menu. And that, after all, is the goal of any good business owner.

When playing Cafe World, it is important to understand how often you play this game and how you can optimize your cafe world menu around your play time. This way you'll be able to maximize every profit earning opportunity.
