Instead of going to the place to “see if the shop is suitable”, now users can sit at home and still walk around every corner of the shop, admiring the space as if they were really there. With 360-degree virtual reality technology (VR360), it brings a seamless panoramic visual experience: you can rotate to look in all directions, zoom in and out of every detail. Every movement or swipe of your hand takes you deeper into that space – where you can clearly visualize: how the tables and chairs are arranged, what the view is like, whether the lighting of the shop is suitable for studying, working or chatting with friends.
The experience does not stop at “looking around”. With the smart integration of technology and utilities, users can interact right in the digital space as if they were sitting at the shop, for example:
1. Book a table in the desired location: After “walking” around the shop, you can immediately choose your favorite table – next to the glass door, near the bookshelf or on the upper floor – and reserve a spot with one click.
2. View the menu directly: The menu is integrated into the space as an interactive button. Click on the coffee cup, you will see the price, ingredients, brewing method, and even food pairing suggestions.
3. Order remotely – pick up on the spot: The “order ahead” feature allows users to order drinks or food while viewing the restaurant, so that when they arrive, the food is ready, saving waiting time.
4. View the status camera of the shop: Some models also allow access to internal cameras – helping you know which areas are crowded and which are empty – before deciding to go.
5. Receive additional discount vouchers depending on the time of the promotion/program
Digital space also opens up the possibility of outstanding personalization: you can save your favorite tables, favorite dishes, favorite shops - all of which are remembered and suggested for future visits. For those who love to explore, this is also a way to "spiritually travel " through cafes from North to South - from ancient cafes in Hoi An, to the misty space of Da Lat, or a bustling rooftop cafe in the middle of Saigon. All can be "experienced in advance" with just a light swipe on the screen.

The development of digital technology , especially platforms like YooLife, is opening up great opportunities for the F&B industry in general and coffee shops in particular. Not only is it a way to attract young customers, VR360 technology also helps small coffee shops expand their market reach without expensive advertising costs.
Coffee has long been more than just a drink – it’s also a space to slow down, connect, and be creative. When VR360 technology is combined with modern service thinking, going to a coffee shop is now expanded into a complete experience journey even before stepping into the shop.
Choose a seat, order a dish, reserve a table, and set your mood – all with just a few taps. And who knows, your weekend date might start with a fun stroll… in the digital space.
