It’s World Coffee Day! Which for us, as a marketing agency headquartered on the gorgeous island of Cyprus, might as well be a national holiday.

Cyprus is well known for its beautiful beaches, heavenly halloumi, and wonderfully friendly people; people whose social lives notoriously revolve around the sacred ritual of grabbing a frappe with friends. 

From the pappous at the kafeneion to the teens at Starbucks, coffee is a central part of our social lives. 

It’s also an integral part of our professional lives.

And no, that’s not just because we’re all caffeine addicts forever in pursuit of our next fix. 

It’s because there are many proven health benefits that come from enjoying this glorious beverage.

According to Healthline, caffeine improves several aspects of brain function.

From memory and mood to energy levels and reaction times, the neurotransmitters that coffee stimulates are all essential for that drive and creativity we marketers rely on. 

No wonder we can’t have a meeting without it!

So, in celebration of World Coffee Day (a holy day, if you ask us) the Splendid team is here to give you the skinny on the best coffee joints in our beautiful city.

1. Mugs Coffee Bar – the Developer’s Pick

Escape

The way we see the world

We'll take you back to a time when the world was much simpler. A time where magic made sense and innocence was a virtue.

As children we loved magic. How could the bunny coming out of the magician's hat breathe? It was fascinating. It was jaw-dropping. It was head-scratching. As adults, we love to refute magic. To sprinkle it with cynicism. To look behind the curtain.

Not at Splendid.

At Splendid, we're bringing magic back.

In our world, you'll shake hands and sit in meetings with adults, but when we start working on our craft, that magic will always be let loose. Marketing is a science, yet there is no marketing without a spry instinct, a youthful impulse, a teenage mind. Don't mistake that for procrastination. Don't confuse that with too much pizzazz and no business.

Our goal is to create immersive marketing experiences; where there's more than just sprinkles, smoke screens and fairy dust. We are champions of immersive marketing, an art that unifies the audience with the main actor, the Brand. We create stories where the spectator is part of the performance and part of the plot. To each person a different cue, but to all a powerful brand experience.

Immersive marketing is driven by strategic and SEO planning, creative content writing, captivating design and innovative delivery. An experience where brand and magic come together as one, leaving the audience feeling that they 've just witnessed a “great show”.

Our Future

These are exciting times we are living in. Artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data aggregation and manipulation, reusable spacecraft, electric and autonomous mobility, sustainable technologies and so much more.

New tools, new approaches and exciting innovations that unfold every single day. These are the things that fascinate us. These are the topics we consume on a daily basis to keep our minds fresh.

We are individuals who are driven by the love of what we do.

We are driven by evolving marketing experiences through the use of technology.

By our very nature, we are driven, it's embedded in our DNA.

We are Splendid and we are Driven, by Design.
