Run Your Own Coffee Bar (Independent Operator)

Frameworks Berlin is a contemporary picture framing studio and gallery space located on Marienstraße in Berlin. We focus on museum-quality framing and thoughtful presentation of artworks.

Within our space, we have built a small espresso bar and are now offering a unique opportunity for an independent operator to take it over and run it as their own business.

This is not a traditional employment role. It is a chance for someone to step into a functioning, beautifully located space and build their own coffee concept within an established environment.

Take full ownership of the coffee bar operations

• Build and run your own concept, menu, and pricing
• Handle daily service, prep, and cleanliness
• Manage sourcing and stock
• Actively promote your offering via social media and your own network
• Create a strong, consistent presence within the space
• Support simple “to-go” frame checkouts when needed

Requirements

Real experience in a coffee shop (you’ve worked behind the machine, not just “interested in coffee”)

• Entrepreneurial mindset — you want to run something, not be managed
• Strong self-initiative and reliability
• Existing audience or proven ability to drive attention (social media preferred)
• Comfortable working independently and taking full responsibility

Benefits

Opportunity to run your own coffee concept without the upfront cost of opening a full café

• Prime Berlin location with strong foot traffic, especially in spring and summer
• Established, design-focused environment with an existing customer base
• Flexibility to operate outside standard store hours (including Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays)
• Direct upside from your own performance and sales

Important Note

This is an independent setup. You operate the bar as your own business within our space.

There is no fixed salary. Your income comes from your own sales.

The model is designed for someone who wants to step into ownership without taking on the full risk of opening a location from scratch.

Details of the setup will be discussed in person.

If you are looking to take a serious step toward running your own business, this could be a strong entry point.
