My wife and I are looking to open a restaurant/cafe bar on a Greek island and are trying to establish what legislation exists with regard to the necessary licenses required to enter into such a venture. I.e Food license, alcohol license, entertainments license, health and safety etc. we would appreciate any help and advice you may wish to share with us. Many Thanks in anticipation.

Since I was a kid I have loved cooking and baking. I majored in hospitality in college, and I’m ready to move on. I want to open up a cafe that sells coffee, pastries, sandwiches, soups, and salads. How should I start this whole process? How would I start picking recipes, employees, signs, decor, etc.? (I have already found a place that i would like to rent for the cafe itself)

I’m working up some numbers to determine the financial feasibility of opening a small (1000-1200 sq ft) cafe. Starting out with myself and no more than 2 part time employees, what should I estimate for combined liability, equipment, workers comp insurance?

We are considering opening a small cafe in Michigan and are wondering what a good website is to find maybe step by step directions, or maybe some directions at all.

I am starting a small retail business and cafe/juice bar that has potential to turn into a restaurant… Who or what are my resources to finding what permits are necessary in my area? I live in Minneapolis and am starting it either here or in St. Paul.
Thank you in advance!

Ok so I need to earn some cash. I need a temporary job. I live in a small rural town, population 449, Many older folks live here. I can train dogs. I can play piano. I can babysit although not many kids to baby sit. I write good stories and stuff. I can lift stuff under 75 lbs. I know how to work with computers a bit. I also can play the clarinet. My dog is trained for tricks and stuff. Do you think people would come to a circus like performance with just my dog? I would mow lawns but my friends family does that as a business full time, so i dont want to be competion because that is the full income they live off of during most the year. We have a post office, a cafe, a bar, a bank, and several churches. I can not drive and the nearest city is 15 miles away and my dad works there. They have a bigger population but not by much. What can I do? Could I get an online job such as a google employee. my aunt does this like 10-15 hrs. a week. What do they do anyway?
I want to make cash to go shopping and stuff besides I have nothing better to do.
A lot of kids get summer jobs. I just thought it would be nice to have some money to spend with out bothering my parents for money considereing we are tight on money.

I am interested in starting a cafe out of my apartment. What are the obvious reasons to not do this (it’s not that obvious to me), and the less obvious pitfalls to avoid if i do decide to go through with it?

Our magazine is looking for other companies, like Cafe Press, that will print our logo on t-shirts and hats and manage the overhead, orders, and inventory (which Cafe Press does). We want to compare prices for products so that we can be sure we are getting the best price. Also, if any business owners have worked through a company like this in the past and has some tips/advice, that would be welcomed, as we have never worked with companies like this before. Thanks!
