Let’s Look: Coffee Bar Area

Good morning and happy Wednesday! Today, starts a new year of “Let’s Look…” with some of my favorite bloggers to take a look at my coffee bar area! Excited to be sharing this little area because it is used EVERY.DAY! One thing I absolutely love about this space is switching up the decor on metal tier stand on a monthly basis! It is fun to have a little seasonal pop of color in this area. Now grab yourself a cup of coffee and let’s chat my coffee bar!

Coffee Bar Contents

This part of the kitchen is utilized EVERY DAY! I love coming down in the morning and making a nice warm cup of coffee. We use our single serve Keurig (silver machine pictured), which we received as a housewarming gift from family members. We’ve had it for 7 years and it’s still going strong! Here is the most recent model, but they have this smaller single serve machine that takes up WAYY less space.

My Everyday Coffee

Our favorite regular coffee blend is the Green Mountain Breakfast Blend after brewing I throw in some French Vanilla creamer in winter and in the summer, opt for some Coconut creamer (both from Aldi). We haven’t tried too many other k-cups so any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

We store our k-cups in these glass containers – one of which is topped with my sister-in-laws artwork!

Next up, the other machine in our coffee area is the Nespresso machine and frother. I purchased this 3 years ago on Black Friday at Bed Bath and Beyond for around $100 – it was a total steal and I have loved having this in our home. I know I’ve mentioned this so many times before, but I do miss grabbing Starbuck’s from the lobby of my building when I used to work downtown. It was such a nice break/treat during the day. This has filled that void as I can whip up special drinks while saving a bunch of money! It’s odd that I use this machine in the afternoon 85% of the time.

My favorite espresso capsule is Diavolitto. I normally will add a couple teaspoons of Starbuck’s or Torino Vanilla syrup to the bottom of my glass.

Recently, I’ve been using about a tablespoon of this Cappuccino flavoring and have been loving it. I found this at Aldi, and I also have the French Vanilla kind as well! I do not use the syrup when using this mix.

If you really want an afternoon pick me up, add this little number to your plate!

Another gadget my husband and I love using for iced coffees in the summer, this handheld frother! Honestly a versatile and inexpensive gizmo that allows you to froth up Almond Milk, Cold Creamer for iced coffee, or use to blend in hot cocoa mix

Our coffee stand contains more seasonal items. In the summer, I will keep some tea bags out. I always like to have some sort of stir stick and have linked them in my coffee stand posts.

As mentioned, I love to switch up the tiered stand decor every month, so I figured I would share that below! I usually find cheap little decor pieces them from the Dollar Tree or Target Dollarspot. Throw in a matching mug I already own and VOILA!

    I love my Nespresso frother – it makes the thickest froth. Those wafers are the best accompaniment to a cup of coffee. Great displays on your two-tiered server.
