A staffed specialty coffee bar in your Rhodes reception, run entirely by Coffee on Cue, for your customers, your team and the events you host.
Your Rhodes reception already does a lot of work. Customers collect orders from the Click & Collect lockers, browse the display wall and call in to the service centre, and it's where you bring people together for launches and events. With the service centre back in-house this year and the space due to be redesigned, you're looking at how the whole experience can feel more like Nikon. A coffee bar is where you've chosen to start.
We take care of everything behind the bar: the barista, the machine and grinders, coffee, milk, cups, ordering technology and a live dashboard, Monday to Friday, 8am to 4pm. The same barista is there each day, so regulars get known by name and by order. You provide the space and the joinery. Launches, weekend events and after-hours sessions are booked in as extra service days, using the same bar.
Nikon can fund it in full, or set a price for each group, whether that's your team, walk-in customers or VIPs, and whatever's collected at the till comes off your invoice. Where the investment lands depends on your hours, your volume and how you split it, so the calculator further down lets you test those for yourself, weekends included. The first three months are a trial, so you'll have real numbers in front of you before the full term applies.
You told us the space is heading somewhere more heritage-inspired, with wood and warm tones, and that Nikon's colours are yellow and black. Here's one early direction, built from the photos you sent through. It's a concept to react to. The final design is one we'd work through with your team.
Stainless steel is our standard finish. If you'd like a custom finish such as Nikon yellow, we're happy to include the spray at no cost. If the service doesn't continue past the trial, there is a cost to return the machine to standard. A custom finish takes longer than our usual six weeks, so it needs deciding when the agreement is signed.
We can help with branded ceramics, takeaway cups and keep cups, for the bar or for you to sell.
You look after the space, joinery, power and plumbing, filtered water, ice machine, fridges and dishwasher. We supply and maintain the coffee equipment, the POS and everything on the bench.
For Nikon, it starts with your customers: people who stay a little longer, talk to your team and leave with a better feel for the brand. Sales follow, but they aren't the first measure.
Before go-live, we'd agree a short scorecard with you, then review it together at the end of the three months.
Cups each day for your team, your customers and your VIPs, live on your dashboard.
Regular sentiment scoring from the people using the bar, so you can see how the experience is landing.
The launches, events and visits run through the bar, and who they bring in.
Anything your service centre already tracks, read alongside the coffee data.
Employees spend an average of 20 minutes daily on external coffee runs. An in-house service converts this into productive work time, saving thousands of hours annually.
JLL recorded an 18% increase in office attendance following implementation. Premium amenities drive return-to-office through choice, not mandate.
Premium workplace amenities can reduce turnover by up to 25%, strengthening your employer value proposition and signalling investment in your people.
Communal coffee spaces encourage cross-team interaction and spontaneous collaboration. Happier employees are up to 20% more productive (University of Warwick).
Underpinning our barista service is our custom workplace dashboard. Nikon will have permanent, ongoing access to this live platform providing total transparency and operational visibility.
Track daily and weekly patterns, peak periods and product preferences to see how teams naturally gather and engage.
Quantify your return with clear data on value per cup, productivity uplift and annualised FTE hours returned to the business.

Best for: offices that want a crowd-pleaser. The Classic is universally loved, familiar enough for the flat white drinker and refined enough for the black coffee purist. The safe bet that never disappoints.

Sample from our rotating calendar
Not the only options. Tell us the moment and we'll build the drink. From lunar new year to product launches, exec offsites to grand finals.
Variety is what keeps a coffee bar exciting. A rotating single origin gives your team something new to look forward to, gets people talking, and turns the daily coffee run into a moment worth lingering over. It's the detail your coffee lovers notice, and the reason they keep coming back.

Monday attendance was hovering around 80 people in an office built for 300+. Leadership knew the answer wasn't policy, it was experience. The launch of Coffee on Cue in November 2024 became one of the most talked-about initiatives in recent company history.
JLL's headquarters at 101 Collins Street is one of Australia's most prestigious commercial addresses. When Workplace Experience Lead Shaun Rogers set out to create genuine connection in their hybrid-first environment, Coffee on Cue became the anchor. What started as a coffee service became a daily ritual and a measurable driver of connection, wellbeing, and office attendance.

Adjust the settings below to see how your investment changes.
Your fully managed service, combined into a single daily rate that flexes with the hours you need. Everything below is included:
<150 cups/day = $2.20 • 150-250 = $2.10 • 250+ = $2.00. All beverages including alternative milks. Currently: <150 tier
Weekly Service Schedule
| Day | Active | Head Start | Head Finish | Second Barista | Second Start | Second Finish |
|---|
Minimum shifts: head barista 6 hours, second barista 4 hours. Minimum of three service days a week. Hours are a starting point, and we review them with you at 30, 60 and 90 days.
Two ways to run it: fully subsidised, where every cup is on Nikon, or a co-payment, where people pay at the till and what's collected comes off your invoice.
Optional modules to layer onto the service. Tick what's included, pricing for these is confirmed with your account manager as part of the rollout, not charged per cup.

After-hours events and launches. If an event runs while the bar is open, it's part of the regular service, with no extra charge. Events outside your service hours are booked ahead at the same rates. Labour has a 4-hour minimum: that's the time we set aside a barista for, even if the event itself runs shorter, and cups are charged on top as they're served.
Most vendors give you a machine and a person. We give you a single, fully managed system, four parts that run as one, all owned by us and tuned to your workplace.
People, product, technology and experience move as one service. The four blocks below are how it comes together.
We've worked back from a March start, and all of these dates are tentative. Our side needs about six weeks from a signed agreement, on the basis that your bench, power and plumbing are ready before we install. A custom machine finish takes longer, so it needs deciding when the agreement is signed.
Initial term. 36 months from go-live.
Three-month trial. The first three months are a trial. During it, either of us can end the service on 30 days' written notice, with no penalty. If you've chosen a custom machine finish, the charge to return it to standard still applies. The rest of the term is governed by the agreement.
Renewal. At the end of the term it renews for a further 36 months, unless either of us gives 60 days' written notice.
A summary of the commercial terms for this engagement. The full Managed Service Agreement governs the relationship and is provided alongside this proposal.
