What is the name of the coffee shop on the show?

The coffee shop on Frasier is called Café Nervosa. It is the fictional Seattle café where Frasier Crane, his brother Niles, and their friends regularly meet for coffee, conversation, arguments, and advice.

Café Nervosa serves as the show's main social gathering place outside Frasier's apartment and the KACL radio station. Its presence reflects the series' connection to Seattle's coffee culture, which was especially prominent in the 1990s. The production design gave the café a warm, established look rather than making it resemble a bar like Cheers.

One episode, “My Coffee with Niles,” takes place almost entirely at Café Nervosa. The story uses a long conversation between the brothers to explore Frasier's first year back in Seattle and his question of whether he is truly happy. The café therefore functions as more than scenery: it is a recurring setting for the brothers' relationship.

Café Nervosa is fictional, despite occasional real-world location references in the show. Viewers may confuse it with Central Perk from Friends or with Starbucks, but neither is the café used by Frasier and Niles.
