Everything you wanted from a coffee truck — without the truck
Most people searching for a coffee truck want the same thing: a real barista making espresso drinks at their event. That's exactly what we do — from a mobile espresso cart instead of a truck.
A cart changes where the coffee can go. Trucks need a parking lot, a level curb and a permit. Our carts roll into office lobbies, hotel ballrooms, retail floors, backyards and mountain decks, and set up in a 5×5 space with a standard outlet.
Guests walk right up to the bar instead of queuing at a service window, and the barista is part of the party. Drinks are unlimited during your service window, and we can wrap the whole cart in your branding.
What you get
Coffee cart vs. coffee truck
Indoors or out
A coffee truck stays in the parking lot. A coffee cart goes inside — lobbies, ballrooms, offices and tents.
No parking or permits
No curb, no generator, no truck access. A flat 5×5 space and a 3-prong outlet.
Face-to-face service
Guests order at an open bar, not a window — it's more social and it photographs better.
Same café drinks
Espresso, lattes, cold brew, chai and matcha, hot or iced, made to order by a barista.
Brandable
Wrap the cart, add an overhead sign, print your logo in the foam — a mobile activation.
Scales up
Need truck-level volume? Add carts, or our high-volume draft tap cart, for up to 2,000 guests.
The coffee truck experience, rolled right into the room.

What clients say after the cart packs up — in their own words.
“One of the best vendors at our wedding. Megan and Chloe did a phenomenal job making coffee and chatting with our guests. Set up and clean up seemed effortless and the coffee was so good. The latte printing is a must and surprised our guests and brought a smile to our guests with each cup. Would definitely hire Flipside again!”
“Flipside Coffee was an absolute hit at my office. Ty was our barista (and also the founder!) and he was AMAZING. He made all of the drinks so quickly and most of the hot drinks had beautiful latte art. All of the drinks, both hot and cold, were delicious! We will definitely be inviting Flipside Coffee back to our office on a regular basis. Highly recommend!”
“Wedding planner here! Flipside Coffee Cart was such a fun addition to our couple’s wedding! Their team was wonderful to work with from the planning side. Everything was smooth, professional, and beautifully presented. We would absolutely love to have Flipside Coffee Cart at another HK wedding!”
“We had a Flipside coffee cart in office for my team and it was such a hit!! Sol and Megan were friendly, professional, and made amazing coffee, chai, and matcha:) The whole process was incredibly easy, they handled all the logistics so I never had to worry if things were running smoothly. I really appreciated how warm and welcoming they were. Highly recommend, and I’m already looking forward to booking with them again!”
“Sol was our barista at a smaller private party in Boulder for about ~16 people & children. Great smile, friendly service, easy going and extremely polite and considerate. We chatted about moving to Boulder (& CO) and shared stories of where we came from. Welcome to CO!!!”
“The Barista Megan is phenomenal energy and makes phenomenal espresso and matcha! If we ever cross her path in Denver, we will each be getting 5 coffees each!”
“I had a great experience with Flipside for a grand opening event. Chloe and Megan were amazing - very accommodating to the tight space we had available and easy to work with. The coffee and pastries tasted great and were major hits with our guests! Would love to work with Flipside again soon.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Flip Side Coffee was an absolute dream to work with for Teacher Appreciation Week—exceptional quality, genuinely lovely baristas, and branding that felt perfectly dialed. Everything ran seamlessly… we loved it so much we’ve already booked them again!”
“This wasn’t our first event with Flipside Coffee, and once again, they did not disappoint. From start to finish, their response times and communication were excellent—clear, prompt, and easy throughout the entire process. Their level of professionalism truly stands out and makes event planning seamless. And it definitely doesn’t hurt that they deliver high energy with a friendly face every time! Flipside consistently brings great coffee, great vibes, and a team you can count on. Highly recommend and looking forward to many more events together. ☕👏”

Questions
Good things to know
Do you have a coffee truck?
No — we run mobile espresso carts, not trucks. You get the same made-to-order espresso drinks, and the cart can set up indoors or anywhere with a flat 5×5 space and an outlet.
How much does it cost to hire a coffee truck or cart?
Pricing depends on your service window, guest count, location and branding add-ons. Fill out the form on this page and we'll send a quote for your event — usually within the hour.
How much coffee do we need for 50 or 100 guests?
You don't have to do that math. Drinks are unlimited during your service window — no counting cups — and we staff baristas and carts to your guest count, from 20 people to 2,000.
What drinks are included?
Every event gets a full espresso menu, hot or iced: americanos, lattes and cappuccinos with vanilla, chocolate and a seasonal syrup, plus decaf, chai and matcha at no extra cost. Milks are organic whole, almond and oat.
How far do you travel?
Our typical service area is anywhere within about 100 miles of Denver — the Front Range, Boulder, Fort Collins, Colorado Springs and mountain towns like Aspen, Vail and Breckenridge. We've served as far as Manhattan.
Can you put our logo on the drinks?
Yes — logo latte printing is one of our most popular add-ons. We can also do custom menus, signage, printed cups and fully wrapped carts, so the whole bar matches your brand or your wedding.
