What areas do you serve?

We serve all of Southern California. All of our quotes include a travel fee dependent on the distance. We are happy to travel so send us a message. We will also travel to Northern California and beyond.

What if I need to cancel my event?

We require a 50% deposit to reserve a date. Deposits are non-refundable but can be used towards another event.

Do you serve decaf or other alternative milks?

Yes we serve decaf. We also include whole milk and oat milk for all events.

What power and space requirements do you have?

We can fit almost anywhere, but we do need at least a 6 by 8 foot space for the cart and the baristas. Each espresso machine or bar requires one dedicated 15-amp circuit.

What's included on your coffee cart menu?

We serve a minimal menu to maintain the highest quality, which includes: espresso, latte, cappuccino, matcha, americano, hot chocolate, and assorted teas. For all events, we include 4 homemade syrups: Vanilla, Caramel, Mocha, and 1 Seasonal. All drinks come hot or iced with the choice between whole and oat milk. We provide upgrades like cold brew, ceremonial matcha, cold foam, seasonal signature craft drinks, and customized homemade syrups hand selected by the client.

What customization options do you offer?

We offer custom branded carts, cups, menus, and custom branded banners, as well as latte art printers that can print any logo on lattes. We can also accommodate special request menu items.

How many baristas do I need for my event?

Each barista can serve about 50 to 60 drinks per hour. For events with 100 or more people in a 2-hour window, we recommend at least 2 baristas so everyone has an opportunity to get a drink. Longer service times can allow for fewer baristas.

How is pricing determined for a coffee cart event?

Pricing is customized based on details like guest count, service duration, event location and travel distance, menu selections, and any custom add-ons. Most events start around $800 for a 2-hour service window. Once we have your event details, we will outline everything clearly in your quote.

Do you work with agencies and event production companies?

Yes. We work regularly with agencies managing activations on behalf of brand clients and are comfortable with load-in windows, venue restrictions, and on-site production coordination.

How far in advance do we need to book for a brand activation?

We recommend 3 to 6 weeks for most activations. Events requiring custom cart branding or branded cups need at least 2 to 3 weeks for production lead time.

Can you handle large scale activations?

Yes. We bring multiple carts for high-capacity events. Each barista serves approximately 50 to 60 drinks per hour, so we size the setup to match your attendance and service window.
