With consumers looking for more than just low prices from their dealership, this cafe demonstrates how auto retailers can ensure repeat service. '[Cafe 1250](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caf-delice-coffee-concept)' is a deli and internet cafe located inside the Big Two Toyota dealership in Chandler, Arizona. The cafe features an extensive menu that includes everything from cappuccinos to healthy salads. The cafe even sells fresh cookies baked in-house.
