The data analysis is conducted by applying Pierce&#x2019;s theory (1931 in Chandler 2007) that is typology of sign. In order to interpret the meaning of the signs found, connotation theory offered by Chandler (2007) and Fiske (2012) are also used. Purposive sampling is used in this research to select the objects. In this research, the researcher selected Uno cafe, Mochi Maco cafe, and Omah Coffee Cafe.The result of this research discovers that the icon, index, and symbol are found in the logos. The iconic signs are mostly applied and the symbolic signs are used more than the indexical one. The meaning of signs combination found in the logos is interpreted through connotation theory.
