Four slots, flat monthly rates, no auction and no minimum spend. The readers are people already looking up an independent coffee shop by name, city or neighbourhood — 325 entries’ worth, across 8 city guides.
The first band under the masthead, above the index. Sitewide or narrowed to one shop type.
Alongside the field record on entry pages, where somebody has already decided where they’re going.
Set between entries in a city index, in the same rhythm as the listings around it.
The last thing on the page, after the reader has finished reading. Cheapest way in.
Ads are labelled and sit outside the listings. Nothing about the entries themselves — what’s printed, what’s verified, what order the index runs in — is for sale on this page.
If you run one of the 325 shops in the guide, the cheapest advertising here isn’t a banner — it’s your own entry. A listing grade makes your website clickable, adds a photo, and lifts you above the free listings in your city index. Find your shop, open the entry, and hit Upgrade — or compare the grades line by line.
One email, no sales call. Say which slot you want (from $25/mo), whether it runs sitewide or in one city guide, and we’ll send back the artwork spec and an invoice.
