Planning guides

Straight answers for planning a mobile bar at your event.

01

What a mobile coffee bar needs at your venue

A mobile espresso bar needs four things from the venue: its own plug point (our La San Marco 85 machines draw about 3.8 kW), a water supply near the bar, enough level floor space for the counter with room for the baristas behind it, and cover if the event is outdoors.

02

How to choose the right bars for your event

Start with coffee for any daytime or business event, then add one bar that suits the season and your guests: gelato, soft serve or slush in summer, hot chocolate in winter, a sweet bar such as waffles or candy for celebrations, and a pizza or prego bar when the event runs through a meal.

03

What affects the price of a mobile bar

A mobile bar quote depends on the number of guests, how long the bar serves, how many bars you book, where the venue is and whether you want the bar branded.
