### 4/5 — Great game !! would love to see more !

*2025-07-22, version 2.3.6*

I loved this game few years back, and I still love that they kept lots of what I remember. I wish there is a dark mode for nighttime instead of just morning only theme. For bar items, but besides that this is a great game for relaxation, really cute design.

### 5/5 — 최고에요

*2025-02-20*

제가 원하던 게임입니다!! 현질유도도 없고 재촉도 없어서 너무좋아요!!

### 5/5 — <3

*2024-12-25, version 2.1.7*

I have been a hugeeee fan since the previous games!!! Love this!!!!! It’s so cute and so detailed!!!!

### 5/5 — 재미

*2024-11-16*

처음 해보니까 너무 재미가 있네요 심심할 때 딱이예요

### 5/5 — Omg thank you for bringing this coffee game back!

*2024-11-05*

Hello Cappuccino, I Love Coffee, Fairywoods Patisserie, Sweet Shop, Pocket Potions, and Dream Dresses were the epitome of cute games where you could run a shop with food and treats you love and decorate to your hearts content- and the decorations and people were the best and cutest! I pretty much stopped playing anything after these games were gone- now I have renewed hope! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

### 3/5 — Pretty to look at but Stiff

*2024-08-21, version 2.0.1*

The game is okay so far, but it feels stiff. I’ve been playing this since the rerelease and I can see that the player experience wasn’t prioritized or expanded on when compared to the amount of attention given to buyable items. 
— Can’t have a custom profile picture
— Can’t have bio
— Friend feature is boring
— UI looks dated and feels clunky
— When you place food on a counter you don’t get the option to put it in storage
— You can’t upgrade the food counter
— Buy catalog doesn’t separate what items can be purchased with coins, or with beans. So if a player isn’t extremely careful, they might end up using beans (an already limited resource)
— The amount of coins needed to upgrade staff: it goes from 1K, 4.8k, 11k, to 25,000??? The jump is odd.

This game has a lot of potential, it takes a lot of things from Hello Seafood 2, but leave out many of the things that make that game good. Hopefully in future updates things will get better.

### 5/5 — It's Back!

*2024-08-13, version 2.0.1*

After years of being unable to play this cute little coffee shop game, it's back with a huge update!  Though, I am sad to see that this came at a cost of my coffee shop and purchases being completely reset (may my Civet rest in peace <3)  

The new game system now gives free daily coins and beans 3x daily, replacing the old cash shop purchases, and the update has removed the food decay mechanic entirely, replacing it with a storage feature that is much less punishing.  

There is a ton to manage in the game now.  Instead of a second café on the beach, you now get to open a gift shop and barbecue pit on the same map.  There are now pickup and delivery orders as well, making the game feel more like a modern coffee shop and incentivizing keeping a bit of everything on hand.  

I will say, though, there are quirks with the new system.  Customers and servers path really weirdly if you put seating outside, always choosing to go around the juice stand even if there's a faster path available, and upgrades get very expensive very fast which makes it difficult to keep up (though this could be me being bad at optimizing my shops...)  

Overall, I'm so happy to see this game alive again, and it's just as addicting as it used to be!

### 4/5 — Good!!

*2016-03-28, version 1.8.7*

I think it's a really easy and cute game. I only wish it had more wall art decorations. But still Great game! 👍🏻😀

### 3/5 — Glitch of bad friendship ;(

*2016-03-27, version 1.8.7*

When I made I think it's called, special jelly? It asked to share in Facebook, I declined, I lost 5 coffee beans and it didn't start making it, but didn't notice then I tried again, but it didn't work, even when I accepted. I lost 10 coffee beans because of this, it's quite annoying, please fix this and give back 10coffee beans or give 10 to everyone as a gift or a sorry... I may be demanding I am sorry as well, for bothering you.

### 5/5 — I love it

### 5/5 — Pretty good

*2016-02-25, version 1.8.7*

Good decorations and easy to follow, not bad so far

### 5/5 — 재밌음😳

*2016-02-25*

제가 4개를 시켰는데 오늘 1시 20 분에 2개먼저 발송되었다고 문자가왔거든요
근데 그 문자 오기전에 택배기사님이 12시 30분에  두시간뒤에 택배배달 오신다고 전화가 왔거든요
근데 시간이 지나도 하도 안와서 제가 다시 전화드려서 언제오시냐고 여쭤봤는데 지역이 저희집은 경기도 부천인데 그쪽은 부산이라고 하시더라구요ㅠㅠ 그래서 혹시 제가 주소를 잘못적었나 싶어서 메롱샵홈페이지에서 확인했는데 것도 아니고 그래서 뭐가 잘못된건지, 2개발송된거는 제대로 발송된건지, 나머지 2개는 언제쯤 받을 수 있는지 확인하려고 문의드려요

### 3/5 — Game is ok

*2016-02-23, version 1.8.7*

Good game to pass the time.

### 5/5 — This game...

*2016-02-22, version 1.8.7*

I love this game!

### 5/5 — Love itttt😍

*2016-02-19, version 1.8.7*

This game is so cute ! Love everything about it.

✨💕☕️

### 4/5 — Longer recipes/spoil times!

*2016-02-16, version 1.8.7*

This game is really addicting, but one thing that would make this game even better is if there was longer recipies! Also if food took double the amount of time to spoil (so like a 4 hour recipe would take 4 hours to spoil) Other than that the game is great!

### 1/5 — 업데이트후 접속이 안돼요

*2025-06-17*

업데이트하고 접속이 안돼요

### 1/5 — Nothing like Hello Cappuccino:(

*2024-12-18, version 2.1.6*

I was so excited to see that this game was being brought back because I had loved and played Hello Cappuccino, but this is nothing like the original game at all! This is just Hello Seafood with coffee and desserts. There’s hardly any decorations, they just want you to keep making drinks and food and that becomes a chore, not fun at all. So long to all the cute, joyful games like Hello Cappuccino, I Love Coffee, Fairywoods Patisserie and Sweet Shop, Pocket Potions and Dream Dresses. I am happy I was able to play all those games but it’s the end of an era and there’s nothing like these games to play now, very sad :)

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2015-11-17, version 1.8.7*

The game is fantastic, but it's hard to enjoy it when it crashes every minute or so 😑

### 1/5 — Sad person

*2015-11-10, version 1.8.7*

Ahhhhhhh!!! Why isn't it working no more!!!??? :'(

### 1/5 — This is bad

*2014-05-27, version 1.6.8*

This game is really bad because it crashes a lot and is hard to under stand so I wold not get it if I where you

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2014-03-19, version 1.6.7*

It keeps crashing when I'm trying to read mail and visit friends/neighbours.

### 1/5 — It is Rubbish

*2013-12-31, version 1.6.5*

It says you put the manger name in.I do that then it says you can only use it five times a day . So I can't play it .It is total rubbish. Don't get it ???

### 1/5 — Would review 0 stars if I could

*2013-12-20*

This game is utter rubbish. Upon being asked to enter my manager name, I was told 'you can on y register fi e times a day', with that exact spelling, missing letters from a simple sentence. Alongside the spelling, it means you are actually unable to even start the game in the first place! I think this is pretty poor coding on the developers part, should not have uploaded this game onto the App Store without prior device testing first! Poor!!

### 2/5 — Boring

*2016-02-11, version 1.8.7*

Please update new menu.

### 2/5 — Great but crashes...

*2015-12-12, version 1.8.7*

This game is rlly cute and great but it keeps on crashing... Please fix it.

### 5/5 — Love it, scratches the old restaurant management game itch

*2026-04-15, version 2.5.6*

Ever since LINE stopped supporting I Love Coffee and I Love Pasta, I’ve been looking for another game to replace that hole in my heart. I’m so glad I found Hello Coffee Shop, because it’s literally an improved / more optimized version of ILC / ILP! I hope the developer continues supporting this game <3

### 5/5 — 제 추억의 게임이에요~!

*2026-01-18*

헬로카푸치노를 초등학교 때 접하고 벌써 대학교 졸업을 앞두고 있습니다. 늘 항상 제게 위로가 되는 게임입니다. bgm과 아기자기한 디자인까지 늘 헬로 게임들 하면 언제나 행복했어요. 헬로 시푸드, 헬로 슈퍼마켓, 헬로 카푸치노까지.. 아직까지 이 게임을 할 수 있다는 사실이 정말로 행벅힙니다.

### 5/5 — 내가 제일 좋아하는 게임

*2026-01-01*

일단 디자인이 너무 예쁘고 돈도 생각보다 잘 모여요! 그리고 안에 미니게임 같이 퍼즐하는것도 있는데 그런 소소한 것도 너무 좋습니다 게임 자체도 넘. 재밌고 무엇보다 커피샵 디자인들이 다 너무 예뻐서 꾸밀맛 나요 초등학교때 학 잊고 살다가22살인 지금 다시 하는데 넘. 재밌어요ㅠㅠㅠ 다들 츄라이 !!!!!

### 5/5 — 업데이트 떴을 때 누르면 바로 연결되게 해주새요

### 5/5 — 아침까지만 해도 잘 됐는데

*2025-06-17*

서버에 접속 불가능하다고 에러가 뜹니다 해결해주세요 ㅠ 😭

### 5/5 — 앱스토어 찐으로 리뷰 처음 써봄

*2025-06-17*

개재밋음 캐시템(커피콩)도 진짜 잘 줌 그래서 현질을 안 해도 플레이가 됨 광고도 누르지 않는 이상 아예 안 뜨고 음식들 디자인도 예쁘고 상상상타치 게임이라 매일 하는 중 다 하세요 제발

### 5/5 — 재밋음
