Plumbing, no. Electrical, yes.

Charlotte Mobile Coffee carts can serve delicious hot and cold café beverages at any wheelchair-accessible location, thanks to our in-cart plumbing system. Our system uses only natural spring water to make drinks and rinse our materials.

Please ensure we’ll have access to one dedicated 15-amp circuit with a standard three-prong power outlet.

Please ensure we won’t be sharing a circuit with other vendors or high-power equipment/machinery.

If you’d like the coffee cart set up in a location with uneven or unpaved surfaces, or in an area that is not easily accessible by wheelchairs or carts, please share those details when you request a quote.

The Charlotte Mobile Coffee espresso cart setup is always ready for last minute events thanks to our standard menu option, which includes: espresso, cappuccino, latte, and americano beverage options.

The standard menu also includes 3 all-natural syrups: vanilla bean, toasted caramel, and mocha.

Additions to the standard menu often require at least one to two weeks of lead time so we can source quality ingredients and complete necessary preparations.

Please explore our Menu Gallery to learn more about the flavors we can provide to your event. Whether you’re thinking of a decadent wedding cake latté, or a refreshing iced matcha bar, we can make it happen.

Charlotte Mobile Coffee only uses what we deem to be the best locally-roasted coffee beans available. We tested multiple roasters in the Charlotte area, and partnered with Enderly Coffee Co. due to their commitment to not only great coffee, but also community. Enderly supplies a diverse range of beans roasted to accommodate different tastes and flavor preferences. We chose Enderly’s “State Street” espresso blend as our default espresso bean after weeks of taste-testing, espresso machine dialing, and deliberation.

With craft milk drinks like cappuccinos and lattés in mind, the State Street blend is a darker roasted coffee blend. We are happy to accommodate requests for lighter roasted espresso—just shoot us an email so we can discuss your event needs and create a framework for finding the perfect espresso to serve your guests.

Our single-origin drip coffee add-on is also a great choice for guests who enjoy tasting coffee in its purest form.

We highly recommend you double-check your event space to ensure our cart and tables can access the space.

We require:

• Wheelchair accessible location

• 5’ x 5’ working area

• One dedicated 15 amp power outlet within 10’ of working area and cart

Please make note of ceiling heights, stairs, gates, doors, walkways, or elevators. Measure your intended space to ensure we can fit! Our cart cannot be disassembled for entry.

We can customize our full coffee catering setup pretty much any way you’d like. Be Sure to give us a much information about your vision as possible in your inquiry form so that we can get renderings and ideas sent back ASAP. We love a challenge–if you can dream it, we can probably do it!

We’ll always do our best to accommodate last-minute bookings. Check our real-time availability on the booking form, or call and ask if you have a last minute need for espresso catering!

For custom-wrapped carts, customized cups, and custom menu items, please book at least Two weeks in advance to ensure we have enough time to create and deliver everything perfectly.
