This study explored the behavior and choice attributes of specialty coffee shop customers according to their general characteristics. The results showed significant differences by gender, age, occupation, education, and income. Female customers stayed longer, valued taste, and their importance perception toward employee and systematic service was higher compared to the males. According to age, younger customers (20's, 30's) stayed longer, visited coffee shops to meet friends and enjoy specialty coffee, and placed high importance on physical surroundings, systematic service, and taking out coffee. Whereas older (50's and 60's) customers valued the location and having coffee on-premise. In terms of education, ustomers with higher education visited coffee shops to enjoy their favorite specialty coffee. By income, those with higher ncomes valued the location and brand of the coffee shop, and their importance perception toward employee and ystematic service was lower than that of customers with lower incomes.

Purpose: This study examines the structural relationship between perceived quality, relationship quality, and revisit intention in the context of coffee shop. In this model, perceived quality consists of product, service, and experience quality, and relationship quality consists of satisfaction, trust, and commitment, and performance consists of revisit intention. More specially, this study identifies whether perceived quality plays a mediating role in the relationship between perceived quality and relationship quality and the direct/indirect effects of perceive quality on intention to revisit. Research design, data and methodology: The survey was conducted from September 1 to 30, 2019. The data were collected from 320 respondents and analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) with AMOS program. Results: The findings are as follows. First, quality perception of coffee specialty stores had a statistically positive effect on relationship quality, indicating supports H1. Therefore, customers can know that they are aware of the quality of coffee specialty stores, including quality of service and experience as well as products, and that they form relationship quality with coffee specialty stores. Second, relationship quality between coffee shops and customers had a significant positive effect on performance. Thus, H2 was supported. The results show that if the coffee shop does not consider relationship quality as important, customer loyalty decreases, the number of customers decreases, and the number of customers who switch to another coffee shop increases, which can lead to a threat to the coffee shop. Third, in the case of hypothesis H3, it was found that there was a partial mediating effect of satisfaction and trust between quality perception and reuse intention of coffee specialty stores, so hypothesis H3 was partially supported. As commitment appears to have no mediating effect, it can be said that customers who use coffee shops are not only difficult to maintain as regular customers of a particular coffee shop, but also have ample room to move to other coffee shops. Conclusions: Although many scholars point out the importance of service quality, few studies were conducted in the context of the Korean food service industry (including coffee shops). From this perspective, this study tested several hypotheses that the quality (product, service, experience) perceived by customers can have a positive effect on relationship quality and performance (re-visit intention), either directly or indirectly. The findings of this study demonstrate that if the manager of a coffee shop understands the characteristics of quality perceived by customers and the role of relationship quality, the effect of quality perceptions on customers can be maximized in order to maintain the relationship with customers.

We suggested specific and practical marketing strategies to coffee shop managers and customers to create a symbiotic relationship. The coffee shop's relationship to reliability, commitment, and shop loyalty was analyzed thoroughly. The samples for this study were 393 coffee shop customers in Seoul. The results showed that customer reliability about coffee shops improved as reputation, customer orientation, specialty, and tie increased, but reliability was reduced as the size of the coffee shop became larger. Communication did not significantly affect reliability. Second, customer reliability positively affected commitment, so commitment increased as customer reliability increased. Third, customer reliability positively affected shop loyalty, so shop loyalty increased as customer reliability increased. Fourth, customer commitment positively affected shop loyalty, so shop loyalty increased as customer commitment increased.

This study aims to understand college students customer's preference and the difference of coffee grade by comparing the result of Q-grader, who was trained professionally and received certification for a sensory evaluation of coffee grade. The results of the chemical analysis of raw coffee and coffee berry show that those of specialty grade had slightly higher, but not significant, water content. Further, the pH of specialty grade coffee was high in coffee beans and after roasting, the commercial grade became high. There was no significant difference between the specialty degree and commercial degree in color before and after roasting. In this study, the panels for the sensory evaluation included 24 university students. The preference of evaluation items of sensory evaluation consist of aroma, acidity, bitterness, astringency, aftertaste, and overall satisfaction. Items for the strength evaluation consist of aroma, acidity and bitterness. The sensory evaluation was expressed by applying a 5 point Likert scale (1: extremely low~5: extremely high). In the sensory evaluation, it was evaluated that specialty grade coffee had strong acidity and commercial grade coffee was strongly bitter. The result of the sensory evaluation shows that female students are sensitive to coffee taste. In the analysis of frequent visit to coffee shop, the not-frequently-use-group rated that specialty grade coffee with higher overall satisfaction than commercial grade coffee in factors such as aroma and acidity. The group which did not prefer Americano coffee rated that specialty grade was higher than commercial grade in all factors except aroma, of which the result is similar to the cupping test.

This study explored choice attributes in specially coffee shops and examined the relations between choice attributes and positive emotions customers felt in specially coffee shops. The study also attempted to find differences in choice attributes and positive emotions according to general characteristics of customers and coffee-drinking behavior. Measured items were derived from preliminary interviews and a literature review. Questionnaires were distributed to customers in Seoul who had visited a specially coffee shop in the last 3 months. The derived factors of choice attributes were 'taste of coffee and atmosphere', 'brand', 'price benefit', 'pleasant space', and 'coffee itself. Among those, the two factors 'taste of coffee and atmosphere', and 'brand' had a statistically significant influence on positive emotions of customers. This implies that specially coffee shop customers have primarily emotional rather than utilitarian motivations. Therefore, to better satisfy customers' desires, more effort is needed to improve the physical environment in coffee shops. Female and younger customers showed higher perception of price benefits than others did. The perception of price benefits and pleasant space mainly varied by the location of coffee-drinking and frequency of visiting specially coffee shops. Further differences in positive emotion according to general characteristics and behaviors of having coffee also discussed.

본 연구는 기호식품인 커피가 감성적 성격 혹은 유용적 성격의 소비재로 사용되고 있는 현실을 인식하여 커피전문점 이용 동기를 감성적-유용적 동기로 파악하고, 이 동기요인에 따라 시장세분화를 시도하였다. 시장세분 결과, 감성적 동기가 높은 감성적 소비자와 유용적 동기가 높은 유용적 소비자, 그리고 두 가지 동기요인이 모두 낮게 나타난 수동적 소비자의 세 집단으로 구분되었다. 집단별 커피전문점 이용 선택 속성에 있어서 유의한 차이를 보였는데, 감성적 소비자는 '커피맛과 분위기', '특별한 커피', '쾌적한 공간' 등 감성적 선택 요인에 대한 인식과 '가격적 혜택', '인터넷 사용 여부' 등 실용적 혜택에 대한 중요도 인식이 높은 것으로 파악되어 감성적 소비자인 동시에 합리적 소비자라고 할 수 있다. 반면, 유용적 소비자는 '여러 명이 회의할 수 있는 독립적 공간', '혼잡 정도', '화장실 및 흡연실 등의 시설' 등의 '쾌적한 공간'에 대한 중요도 인식이 높게 나타났다. 또, 세분시장별 일반적 특성이나 커피 음용 행동 간 연관성에 있어서, 성별과 주로 마시는 커피 종류, 커피 마시는 시간대, 마시는 장소만이 유의한 연관성을 가지는 것으로 파악되었다.

Purpose - This study investigates the effect of service quality of coffee shop on store attitude and store loyalty. It demonstrates that the individual's behavior identification level plays a moderating role when the service quality of coffee shop affects store attitude. Conceptually drawing on Brady & Cronin's three-dimensional model of service quality, this study examines the effect of service quality of coffee specialty store on customer's attitudes and loyalty. Also, according to construal level theory, it examines the individual's propensity difference whether the individual's behavior identification level on service quality and store attitude has a moderating effect Research design, data, and methodology - This study used Brady & Cronin's three-dimensional service quality model, and 183 valid cases collected through the questionnaire survey were used for data analyses. For hypothesis testing, regression analysis, multiple regression analysis, and covariance analysis were conducted. Result- As a result of this study, first, it is confirmed that service quality has a positive effect on store attitude toward coffee shop. Second, the difference of an individual's construal level did not have a moderating effect on the influential relationship of service quality on the store attitude of coffee shop. This is because the influence of the service quality is greater than the difference between groups at the construal level. Therefore, there was no moderating influence according to construal level. Third, the store attitude of coffee specialty store has a positive effect on store loyalty. Conclusions - It is confirmed that there is a difference in the effect of service quality and store attitude on general and college students. This suggests that it can be used to establish marketing strategies by segment. And, the college students were found to be more influenced by physical environment quality factor among three dimensions of service quality. Therefore, it is necessary to further improve efforts to raise the level of service quality perception through physical environmental factors such as clean and pleasant environment including the interior of a coffee shop, and internal table arrangement. The empirical study on the moderating effects of customer's tendency of difference is meaningful in the absence of empirical studies.

본 연구는 실증조사를 통해 커피전문점의 서비스 요소가 고객의 감정 및 충성도에 미치는 영향력을 파악하였다. 커피전문점의 서비스를 평가하기 위해 물리적 환경, 종업원의 서비스와 가격적 혜택이 사용되었다. 실증분석 결과, 물리적 환경과 가격적 혜택은 고객의 긍정적 감정과 고객 충성도에 유의한 영향을 미친 반면, 종업원 서비스는 유의한 영향력을 가지지 못하는 것으로 분석되었다. 그리고 긍정적 감정과 부정적 감정은 모두 고객의 충성도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과의 시사할 만한 점은 가격적 혜택이 긍정적 감정과 물리적 환경보다 고객의 긍정적 감정과 고객충성도에 더 높은 영향력을 끼쳤다는 것이다. 이는 최근의 경제상황과 관련한 소비자의 태도를 반영한 것으로 해석될 수 있다.
