A hot chocolate bar guests of all ages line up for
Our Hot Chocolate Cart is Flipside's coziest crowd-pleaser: rich, nostalgic hot cocoa served by our baristas, styled to your event, and topped the way each guest wants it.
At a Black Friday event at Flatiron Crossing, the bar poured Original, Peppermint and Hazelnut hot chocolate with whipped cream, crushed cookies, sprinkles, marshmallows and candy canes. We build the menu to fit your season and your crowd.
Running a big event? Add a high-capacity hot cocoa bar alongside coffee service, so the espresso line and the cocoa line both keep moving.

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
How do you serve hot chocolate to a large crowd?
With a staffed, high-capacity hot cocoa bar. Our baristas serve and top every cup, and for big events we run the cocoa bar alongside the coffee cart so the lines stay short.
Can we get hot chocolate and coffee together?
Yes. Hot chocolate can be its own cart or added to coffee service. Coffee events already include decaf, chai and matcha, so every guest has something.
How much does hot chocolate catering cost?
It depends on your guest count, service window, location and styling. Send your event details through the form and we'll quote it — usually within the hour.
What do you need from the venue?
A dedicated standard 3-prong outlet and a relatively flat 5×5 space. That's it — no kitchen or water source required, and we bring the extension cords.
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.
