Hello! :-)
After years of contemplating wether or not I should start a channel, I’ve finally decided that it doesn’t hurt to try.

OWNING A CAFE | Why I’ve been gone, traveling as a business owner, saying bye to our manager 😢😭
Owning a café is a blend of rewarding experiences and demanding challenges, offering a unique perspective on small business life. The daily routine involves more than just serving coffee; it includes building a community, managing staff, and ensuring every customer leaves satisfied. For Shann and Sang, owners of Harlem Java House in Harlem, Georgia, these aspects define their roles and bring both joy and stress. One of the greatest perks of owning a café is the opportunity to create a welcoming environment where relationships are built and stories are shared. The sense of community that develops within the walls of a small-town coffee shop is incomparable. Customers often become friends, and regulars feel like family. This connection is a significant reward, making the hard work worthwhile.
However, owning a small business is not without its challenges. One of the biggest disadvantages is the difficulty of taking personal time off. The business depends heavily on the owners, making it hard to travel or take breaks. Even short trips require meticulous planning and trusted staff to keep things running smoothly in their absence. When health issues arise, the pressure increases exponentially. Balancing personal well-being with business demands can be a tightrope walk, often leading to exhaustion and stress. Despite these hurdles, the sense of accomplishment in running a small business is profound. The ability to adapt, grow, and thrive under pressure is a testament to the resilience and dedication required of café owners. Every challenge faced and every milestone achieved is a step toward building a lasting legacy in the community.
On another note, I am thrilled to announce an exciting sponsorship and partnership with Munbyn, a brand I have trusted and relied on for over four years. Recently, they generously sent me their latest product, the 130B Thermal Printer, along with a supply of labels to test out. Having consistently used Munbyn’s products in my business, I can attest to their exceptional quality and reliability. This collaboration is particularly special to me, as it allows me to showcase a brand that has played a crucial role in the efficiency and success of my operations. I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to work with Munbyn and look forward to sharing the benefits of their innovative products with my community.

I love highlighted texts makes it easier to read. Also, I wish more coffee shops did coffee flights... like genius!!
So comforting watching these videos. What do you use to edit your videos?
Sugarologie on here has a ton of recipes for whipped cream and frostings, and she’s great at explaining why ingredients give certain effects! She even did a test on what will make whipped cream stay the longest
I think you can use corn syrup or gelatin to stabilize the whipped cream
Today was the first food served out of my shop, it was nice after those 15 hour days, you aren't lying, right now I'm still up working doing research here, cheers to all.
The fact that you do these videos on top of running a business is so so impressive. Glad you took a needed vaca and will be protecting your health! Any video we get through that is appreciated - no need to feel bad for not posting!! Your style is soo soothing, will always be looking forward to it
I was so excited to see your new uploaded video! Thank you guys for what you do and all the work that is put into it, y'all are amazing! I also love menial tasks, especially putting on stickers ;) Your videos bring so much peace and joy! Keep going, you've got this❤🙏
what a great start of Saturday morning to find my favorite channel's new content❤ please put your health first and take care🦥
congrats on the sponsorship!! and yay i love when you upload
you’re my fav channel! i love your editing style so so much
I watched your video some time back and loved it! Was wondering why UA-cam didn’t notify me of any new videos for a while. Same great content with this one, I’m subscribing so I won’t miss any going forward!
Your editing and art is just sooo good! ❤ I hope you enjoyed Montreal! I've never been! Love from ON 🇨🇦
Recently found your channel and absolutely adore the editing style as well as your cafe. I also hope to run my own cafe one day in the future. 😁 I had a question, could you please share what software you use to edit your vlogs? Thanks in advance! 😬 Enjoy watching your vlogs, love from all the way in India!
Hello from Bali! I'd love to eat that sandwich everyday before work. Can tell why it's so popular.
PLEASE i was checking your channel to see if there was a new video but there wasn’t. Loveeee your vids queen
Hahahah thank you for waiting 🥺🥺🥺
20k steps you go girl! Love the new printer and the cute summer labels! Yes I love mundane tasks such as stickering cups! My fav! So much peace! Sorry about your health issues and I’ll be in prayer!
Thanks so much for your prayers!!! I so appreciate them! 🥺
Will comment just clicked on! So glad you’re back! I’ll comment more shortly haha
Thank you for waiting for meeeee ❤️
The words in the first photos are impossible to read with the yellow stripes over it. At least for me 😅
Apologies!! I realized so late after uploading 🥲
Discovered your channel recently and I’ve been craving a new vlog! Your vlogs are so cosy and it’s really cool to see what it’s like to own a coffee shop. All the best :)
I love her and her husbands content
Thank you so much!!! Hope you had a restful time :-)
Me literally looking for your most recent video this morning. I hope all is well and you have a wonderful break!
Awww thank you for your patience!!
First? :D
why do you wrsp everything in plastic? so weird to do that i a caffe for me
Wrapping in plastic elongates the shelf life of the food (to avoid food waste) as well as keep everything more sanitary! Thank you!
Amazing video to see the insides of the life of an owner's cafe !!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very realistic (applause)
Thank you! 🤍
Really enjoyed the video! But there has to be a better way than to wrap everything individually 😳 Maybe store things in cabinets and give items to customers in paper bags?
Thanks so much! To give some insight re wrapping it in plastic: it drastically elongates the food’s shelf life which prevents us from making more food waste! It also promotes food safety for health reasons :-)
You asked about stabilizing whipped cream? SugarSpunRun has a great video about using gelatin as the basis for whipped cream. Many folks simply use instant pudding. Cream cheese can be added too. I prefer gelatin because it doesn’t change the flavor of the cream, but for your purposes, instant pudding is probably easiest.
Thanks for the tip! 🤍
Fantastic video! Thanks for sharing. I learned a lot about business ownership in general.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Miss your videos! Pray all is well. ❤ Big hugs
Why do you wrap each cookie individually? So much plastic and unnecessary 🫣 Enjoyed the video!
It drastically elongates food shelf life which prevents food waste and it also promotes food safety adhering to health department standards
Just found your channel!! I AM OBESSED!! I wished I lived closer so I could support.
Thank you so much!! 🤍🤍
hey! first of all thaks for the video! Im a boba shop owner in the Netherlands and i gotta say that i really respect your work ethics. I don't work half as hard as you do, maybe thats why your cafe is also much busier than my boba shop haha. Is there any chance you can do a cafe tour in one of your next video?
Wow how cool!! Thanks so much for the compliment haha. I’m sure you work just as much and just don’t realize it 🥺 Small business life is not easy but kudos to us both! 🥂 I will try to do a cafe tour on the next video :-)
The the min hee Jin jumpscare 😭😭 and omfg I wish this place was local to me. I’d seriously go everyday! I’ll just watch your videos to support 💪
Hahahaha thank you for getting the reference!! Hope we get to meet someday :-)
I just found your channel and I've already bingewatched all your videos, sooo cosy and calming to watch. I have a fulltime job and 2 little boys and life can get so stressful, these videos calmed me right down! Thank you for taking the time in your already superbusy life for making these amazing videos! 💕
Oh my word. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment! SAHM is the most commendable job! Glad I could provide some much deserved rest for you!! 🤍
Thank you for this Valuable content! I'm excited to open our Beach Hotel with cafe next year in the Philippines!
Woweee so cool!! Hope I get to visit someday :-)
@@destrucshann We would be happy to welcome you! 🙏
Love this! And I agree as a small business owner you don’t have working hours, they’re just hours 😂
Hahaha you get me!!
I just came across your channel a week ago and have been binging your videos! All of you have the best vibes all around and the reno looks amazing! The new layout makes a ton of sense and makes your cafe look a lot more spacious and flowy :)
Thanks so much!!! 🤍🤍🫶🏼🫶🏼
Can I work here and learn this?
Haha wanna apply??
@@destrucshann yesss🖐🏻
The fact you're multitasking - filming, making the drinks/food and baking... wow! You are amazing 🔥👏 props to you! I love your filming and editing (the titles with the transitions are so good)
Thank you so much!! 🤍
Did you look into the cafe before buying it? Like how did you know if it was profitable? I’m wondering for myself when I look for my own shop
I worked here as a barista and was blessed to take over! I think that is the best route to take if you want to own your own cafe someday. I would imagine starting from scratch would be extra difficult! 😣
So cuuuuuuutttteee 🩷🩷🩷
Thank youuuu
Aww I love your cafe Its beautiful Ur editing was so cute too 🩷
Thank you so much!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
Omggg I love the new font design!!!!! ❤
Yay, thank you! 🤍🤍
I am loving your videos! Amazing all the hard work that goes into this wonderful place! I have 4 wonderful kiddos and when I get up early and bake muffins for them or something I tend to do it with as little light as possible too. It does feel peaceful.🌿
Thanks so much! What lucky kids to have a mom so sweet 🥺
very cute video ❤ thank u for sharing
Thank you! 🤍
i’m dreaming of this but idk how much money i need to start n stuff i’m a first year college student n 19 rn
It’s definitely a lot of money, but you’re young and have a lot of time to grind! 💪🏼
Just want to say that I love your videos! I've been watching your Owning A Cafe series because I'm working on a story about running a cafe haha 😅 Your videos have helped me understand the business so much better and now I can write a story that is more accurate to real life! Thanks for posting your videos! 💖💖☕☕
What! That’s awesome! Let me know if I can help with anything else! 🤍
Ugh please never stop making these bakery/cafe vlogs. When I am financially ready I will own a cafe of my own too! and you alls videos give me so much inspiration and joy!! I pray that this business continues to be successful in Jesus’ name Amen! 🤍🩷
I will be praying for you too!! Thank you for the kind words 🤍🤍
Wow. I love your vlogs and how you edited this. Could you tell me what app you used to make it? Thank you so much😊
Thank you! I use CapCut!
You make me want to open up a coffee shop even more than I already do! I love that you're not only presenting the good sides about being a coffee shop owner, but also let us get a glimpse of the hardships. God bless you and the coffee shop, and much love from Norway <3
Thanks so much! It is so fulfilling! I am rooting for you! 🤍
longer videos pls
I will try!! 🤍
