Özet
This study investigates how customer citizenship behavior (CCB) is affected by coffee shops' service quality and examines the mediating role of flow experience in this relationship. Survey data collected from 620 customers revealed that interaction quality and result quality dimensions positively influence CCB, while the quality of the physical environment does not demonstrate a statistically significant effect. Furthermore, flow experience mediates the relationships between all sub-dimensions of service quality and CCB. The findings suggest that customers' CCB towards coffee shops can be enhanced through flow experience, which is influenced by service quality. Additionally, the study proposes strategic recommendations for management to foster CCB, which plays a crucial role in coffee shop competitiveness
