💻 Full Source Code (Copy & Paste)

print("☕ Welcome to Python Coffee Shop ☕")

menu = {
    "Espresso": 50,
    "Latte": 70,
    "Cappuccino": 80,
    "Mocha": 90,
    "Black Coffee": 40
}

cart = {}

def show_menu():
    print("\nMenu:")
    for item, price in menu.items():
        print(f"  {item}: ₹{price}")

def add_to_cart():
    show_menu()
    choice = input("\nEnter coffee name: ").title()
    if choice in menu:
        qty = int(input("Enter quantity: "))
        cart[choice] = cart.get(choice, 0) + qty
        print(f"✅ {qty} {choice}(s) added to cart.")
    else:
        print("❌ Sorry, that’s not on the menu.")

def view_cart():
    if not cart:
        print("\n🛒 Cart is empty.")
    else:
        print("\n🛒 Your Cart:")
        total = 0
        for item, qty in cart.items():
            price = menu[item] * qty
            total += price
            print(f"  {item} x {qty} = ₹{price}")
        print(f"Total Amount: ₹{total}")

def checkout():
    if not cart:
        print("\n🛒 Cart is empty. Add something first!")
        return
    view_cart()
    print("\n💳 Checking out...")
    print("Thank you for ordering from Python Coffee Shop! ☕❤️")

while True:
    print("\n1️⃣ Add Order  2️⃣ View Cart  3️⃣ Checkout  4️⃣ Exit")
    choice = input("Select an option: ")
    if choice == '1':
        add_to_cart()
    elif choice == '2':
        view_cart()
    elif choice == '3':
        checkout()
        break
    elif choice == '4':
        print("👋 See you soon at Python Coffee Shop!")
        break
    else:
        print("❌ Invalid option, try again.")

⚙️ How It Works

Menu: The app displays available coffee types and their prices.
Add Order: The user chooses a coffee and quantity, which is stored in a dictionary called cart.
View Cart: Shows all added items and the total cost.
Checkout: Prints a thank-you message and exits the app.
