For shop owners

If your shop is on Curata, thanks for what you do. We want great coffee shops to thrive.

How your score works

Your score is our read of the information available to us about your coffee, including the opinions Curators give us after their visits. It's not a verified fact, and it moves as we learn more. How we score has the details.

Want to improve your score?

Ask us. We'll share the patterns we're seeing in what coffee lovers say is important to them in a great coffee shop, and how you compare. We won't share any information about individual Curators, and we can't adjust scores on request. But we hope what we share helps you make great coffee even better.

What we'll fix

Facts about your shop: it's closed, moved or renamed, the address or website is wrong, or you don't serve coffee drinks. Anything in your summary that states something untrue as fact. A rating from someone with a stake in your shop, or from a competitor. We usually fix factual errors within a week, and while we check, we may take the part in question down.

What we won't do

We won't change a score because someone asks, or in exchange for anything. We don't sell scores, rankings or placement, and no one from Curata will ever offer to. If someone does, please tell us. We also don't take open coffee shops off the list on request. And, as noted above, we won't share personal information about our Curators.

Think we've missed something?

Tell us. If something's changed, like a new roaster, a new barista training program or how you make your drinks, we'll take another look at what we have. Owners and staff aren't allowed to rate their own shop, but every Curator visit moves the score.
