Caffegen. A combo of caffeine and estrogen.

Apart from my own brilliant suggestions, my favourite so far is:

It really suits the situation most visitors and patients will encounter better than anything else. Maybe it needs to be pithier, but if it was me, this would be top of my list.

I think caffterbirth wins.

I just knew I’d get some great sugestions here! And also some good advice about what names to avoid.  
I was thinking of “Grand Grounds”, myself.  
It’s not my coffee shop. I’m an employee at the hospital and management announced they will be constructing a coffee-specific area that is separate from the cafeteria and also the gift shop, and asked for suggestions about what to call it. They didn’t say if it will be a full service shop or just a little place. It would help to know more.  
Anyway, I enjoyed all the suggestions.

Thank you!

I think ‘Coffee’ or ‘Café’ should be in the name, as a practical thing. (‘Joe’ and ‘Java’ might be less clear.) Or if not, there should be a big sign saying simply ‘Coffee’ or ‘Café.’

I like having something like ‘Respite’ in the name, but I think the best I’ve come up with is…

Hospitable Coffee.

Is there a limit to the number of names you can submit? If not, just take the ten best you see here and submit them.  
If you can submit only one name just use mine, of course. 😃
