Frequently Asked Questions About Our Mobile Coffee & Beverage Catering
How much space does a mobile espresso bar need?
Our mobile espresso bar typically requires about a 6′ × 6′ space for comfortable setup and service. This allows room for our espresso cart and baristas to work efficiently while keeping guest service smooth and quick. For larger events, we may also place a small support table behind the cart for supplies.
If your venue has limited space, just let us know. We’re happy to adjust the setup whenever possible.
Do you need power for coffee catering?
Yes. Our espresso bar usually requires one standard power outlet within 10–15 feet of the setup area. For higher-volume events, we may request two separate outlets so we can operate multiple espresso machines at the same time.
If power is not available, let us know ahead of time and we can help explore alternative setup options.
How many drinks can guests get during service?
Unlimited Drinks!! Guests are welcome to enjoy more than one drink during service time. Most guests receive their first drink within the first hour and often return later for another favorite before service ends.
