Weekly, Quarterly or Once: How Offices Book a Coffee Cart

Offices use the cart in a few different rhythms. None of them is the right one. It depends on what the coffee is for. Here is how they compare, with a few of the teams we serve.

How oftenWhat it looks likeWho does it
Every weekA standing morning on the calendarZoom has a cart in two mornings a week
Every few monthsA coffee day for the employeesA title company we visit about every three months
Once a yearOne big day for the whole officeGusto, for the same event several years running
One timeAn opening, a launch or a client dayCrate & Barrel, for a store opening
Rep visitsA sales rep brings the cart to a clientProduct reps who bring us into architecture firms

What a visit looks like

  • We need about an hour to set up before the first drink.
  • A typical office visit is two hours in the morning.
  • One cart pours 30 to 40 drinks an hour and covers about 75 people in two hours.
  • Teardown takes about an hour, and we handle the cleanup.

What the office provides

A 6 by 6 foot spot and one dedicated standard outlet. A lobby, a breakroom or a courtyard all work, and you don't need a kitchen. Nobody pays or tips at the cart.

What it costs

$375 an hour with a two-hour minimum, so a visit starts at $750. Weekend events add 10%.

Going weekly

A lot of our office accounts turn into a standing day each week. Pick a day and we'll be there.
