How much does coffee catering in Indianapolis cost?

Coffee catering pricing varies based on guest count, service window, and event location. Extra Mile Coffee provides a custom quote within 24 hours based on your specific event details — no generic pricing tables.

What areas do you serve for coffee catering?

We serve all of Indianapolis and the surrounding Indiana communities — including Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Westfield, Zionsville, Greenwood, Pendleton, and beyond. Travel fees may apply for locations outside the metro area, but we do our best to make it work wherever your event is.

How far in advance should I book a coffee cart?

We recommend booking 4–8 weeks in advance, especially for weddings and weekend events during peak season (spring through fall). For events that include custom branding — cart wraps, printed cups, or latte art printing — we recommend 6–8 weeks to allow for design and production. That said, we do our best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible.

Do you offer plant-based milk and decaf options?

Yes — every drink on our menu can be made with oat milk, and all espresso drinks are available decaf at no additional charge. We make sure every guest at your event feels included, no matter their preference.

How much space does the mobile espresso bar need?

Our mobile espresso bar needs approximately 8x8 feet of space and access to a standard electrical outlet. We can set up indoors or outdoors (covered) at almost any venue in Indianapolis. We coordinate directly with your venue to confirm everything ahead of time.

Are drinks really unlimited?

Yes, completely. Every event includes unlimited handcrafted drinks for the duration of your service window. No per-drink charges, no cutoffs, no upcharges for plant milk or decaf. Your guests drink as much as they want — that's the whole idea.

Can you custom brand the coffee cart and cups for our event?

Absolutely. We offer full custom cart wraps with your logo and colors, custom-printed branded cups, and even custom latte art printing where your logo prints directly onto the foam of every latte. Perfect for brand activations, product launches, corporate events, and weddings. Select Custom Branding Options in your Quote Request.

How many guests can you serve per hour?

A single cart comfortably serves up to 50 drinks per hour with handcrafted quality. For larger events (500+ guests), we can deploy multiple carts with coordinated service teams to keep lines moving and every drink at the same high standard.

What's included in the booking?

Every booking includes: the full mobile espresso bar, all equipment and supplies, skilled baristas for your service window, all specialty coffee beans, milk (regular and plant-based), syrups, cups, lids, setup, and breakdown. Essentially, you hand us a corner of your venue and we take care of the rest.

Do you need access to water or electricity?

We bring our own water supply, so no water hookup needed. We do need access to a single standard 110V electrical outlet within about 25 feet of the cart location. For outdoor events without power access, we can discuss generator options.
