Barista's workplace (4)
I believe the answer is:
cafe
'barista's workplace' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for cafe that I've seen before include "Greasy spoon" , "A small restaurant as in France - face up to it" , "Alate" , "Small informal restaurant" , "Small eating place" .)
