COFFEE BARS AT CONVENTIONS

Conventions can be long hours and several days, so the attendees are usually very tired. What better way to get people energized and flocking to your booth than to have not only a specialty coffee bar in your booth, but also the best coffee around in your booth? Rugged Coffee specializes in serving the best coffee & quickly for thousands of people at conventions, giving you more brand awareness because so many people are coming to your booth which gives you that much more opportunity to sell your product or services to the people attending the show. There are other options out there to get coffee into your booth, but your money will be wasted if the coffee isn’t any good and we can confidently say that you won’t find a better mobile coffee bar around.

Convention Centers themselves, like the San Diego Convention Center, the Anaheim Convention Center, Ontario Convention Center, and more all offer to provide coffee service to you for a cheaper price, but no one will come to your coffee station if the coffee being served there isn’t any good, which would be a waste of money unless of course you go with a coffee bar that will serve the tastiest coffee, like us. In our experience, we’ve seen so many of these other coffee bars in other booths that have zero guests, while our booth is popping at all times. We suggest that if you are looking for a mobile coffee bar that will attract the attendees, serve the best coffee you’ve ever had, and is money well spent with a great return on investment (ROI), then don’t just go with any coffee company, but with one that specializes in catering and catering especially to conventions.

Rugged Coffee will not only energize you and all your staff for the work ahead but will also cause you to leave happy and confident that you provided the best service possible to your guests and making your company look great in the process.

COFFEE CART FOR WEDDINGS

At Rugged Coffee, we cater all sorts of events, whether it is coffee catering for a corporate event, coffee catering for conferences, coffee catering for conventions, mobile coffee catering for birthday party’s, mobile coffee catering for engagement party’s, or coffee catering for weddings. We come to you to serve you the best coffee you’ve ever had and we know that you’ll hear that statement from every coffee caterer around, but just look at our yelp reviews or google reviews to see what people are saying about our mobile coffee catering bar and drinks that we prepare and serve. We are confident that you will not find better coffee and service around.

Some ways that we can make your wedding truly one of a kind is that we are able to create custom latte flavors just for you. If we are given more than 1 months notice, then we are able to create 1 custom flavored latte of your choice, just for your event or wedding. Some of the custom flavors that we have created and now have on our list to choose from are the Lavender Honey Latte, our Churro Latte, our Chestnut Praline, and our Samoa (just to name a few). Another way that we can make your wedding or event truly special is by customizing our coffee cart. The logo in the front of our cart is removable so we can relace that sign with any other sign you would like to have on there, as long as the sign fits the space and is light enough to be held by velcro. Another way that we can create a customized coffee experience is by serving out of custom cups for you, but you will have to provide those for us to use. Lastly, another way that we can customize your wedding or event is by printing a custom stamp that we can use to leave a design on top of each hot drink that we serve.

With our stamping, we use a nonflavor adding component to imprint the design that you want. This is a very uncommon thing you will get to experience because most caterers that use a stamp to imprint designs on their customers drinks, they often use a powder, such as cocoa powder. The problem with cocoa powder is that it will imart an additional unwanted flavor to each drink, so we have set out to create this way to imprint the custom design on each latte without using an ingredient that will add unwanted flavors that dont belong in most drinks that are served.

Booking us means that you get not only the best coffee service around that your guests will be talking about for years, but also a well thought out and executed catering experience that is rivaled by none.

SPECIALTY COFFEE CATERING

Coffee catering is an industry where companies are plentiful, so it’s easy to find someone catering coffee. The problem with coffee caterers and mobile espresso bars is that most of them dont know what they are doing. They do what most coffee shop owners do, and that is that they get into the industry because they think that it’ll be easy and that all they need to do is get machines and coffee beans, while the rest will handle itself. This is why there are so many bad coffee shops and bad coffee caterers. Rugged Coffee is different though, we have started a coffee catering company because we have catered before and know how to do it so that we are efficient and so that every coffee we serve tastes the amazing.

Specialty Coffee is an industry that is tricky to be involved in, and easy to mess up. The science of coffee is tricky and the variables to keep in mind are plentiful. Things you have to keep in mind are grind size (whether the grind is too coarse or too fine), the water (how much or little water to use or what minerals are in the water), and the brew time (brewing too long will yield bitter tastes and brewing too fast can result in sour and light tasting coffee). Brewing coffee perfectly is hard to do but once you’ve mastered it, then it comes as second nature, but now add another variable into the mix, serving events, and things get complicated again. Treating catering like a coffee shop will result in service that takes far too long, but serving fast without standards will get you back to where we started where the coffee will taste terrible. That is why creating efficient serving standards while keeping coffee quality high is the goal of any coffee caterer. At Rugged Coffee, through the 8 years that we have been in business, we have created many standards to serve fast and coffee quality high.

Try our services out today to find for yourself how we are able to serve your guests fantastic coffee efficiently using our local mobile coffee bar.

Eastvale is part of the Inland Empire, or Riverside County, and we travel all over the Inland Empire and the greater Southern California area. Some of the best events that we serve at are the busiest, like conventions, conferences, or large weddings. Convention Center’s like the Riverside Convention Center, the Big Bear Lake Convention Center, the Pasadena Convention Center, the Anaheim Convention Center, and our favorite the San Diego Convention Center are all great spots to have these larger gatherings. At each of these conventions there are a large number of guests that attend, anywhere from 5,000 guests to 25,000 guests, and we serve coffee at them all. If you want the best coffee catering and mobile espresso bar at your convention or booth, then you have found the best.
