Coffee Cart Nashville is a mobile espresso caterer based in Nashville, serving the city and areas within a 70-mile radius. Their setups depend on the event, from espresso bars (several at once for big crowds) to self-serve stations and cold brew for high volumes. They work with planners on the menu, service style, staffing and how guests move through the line. They cater weddings and celebrations, corporate events such as executive breakfasts and employee appreciation days, conferences and expos, and school, church and nonprofit gatherings. Owners Jesse and Alta are musicians, and backstage hospitality for artists, crew and VIP guests is part of what they offer. The couple started Coffee Cart Minneapolis in 2014 and opened the Nashville business in 2018. They describe it as still barista-owned and operated.
