Ah, the coffee logo. At some point in every designers career they are faced with the inevitable task of creating a fresh take on an already overcrowded logo space for a coffee company. How have designers in the past risen to meet this challenge? Just when you think every angle has been tried and every artistic style applied you can find a logo from a designer who had the inspiration to break the mould once again - it's what great design is all about. You'll see in the examples below that there are many different takes on the coffee mug and coffee cup and the hot steam that rises up in aromatic plumes sometimes just for show and other times to form a word or specific shape. We've pulled together the best logos from large chains to small shops and everything in between.
