Frequently Asked Question

For private events, conferences and exhibitions, the client or venue typically holds the relevant event permissions. Because we operate as an event service provider rather than a street-trading van, a street trading licence is not usually required.

If your venue has specific requirements, we confirm all compliance in advance to ensure everything runs smoothly.

A mobile coffee bar is a portable, self-contained coffee setup designed for events. It includes a commercial espresso machine, professional barista, fresh water supply and waste system, allowing us to operate inside exhibition halls, offices, marquees and temporary venues without fixed plumbing.

Unlike a standard café setup, mobile coffee bars are built specifically for high-footfall environments and fast service.

Pricing depends on:

  • Duration of service

  • Number of guests

  • Number of baristas required

  • Branding requirements

  • Venue logistics

For conferences and exhibitions, we recommend scaling staffing based on expected footfall. For a detailed cost breakdown and what influences pricing, you can view our guide on how much it costs to hire a barista in London.

 

We provide everything required, including:

  • Commercial espresso machine

  • Professional barista(s)

  • Coffee beans and milk options

  • Cups and serving essentials

  • Fresh and waste water systems

The only requirement from the venue is access to standard 13-amp power sockets. For larger events, two separate outlets may be recommended.

We typically require a footprint of approximately 1.5m to 2.5m depending on setup size and branding requirements.

For high-volume conferences with multiple baristas, slightly more space may be required to ensure efficient queue flow. We confirm layout requirements during the planning stage.
