Coffee catering on Lake Minnetonka.
Espresso catering for lakeside weddings, private celebrations, and summer events across the Lake Minnetonka communities — from the Twin Cities’ original coffee cart company.
Get Your ProposalLake Minnetonka sets the scene. We match it.
When the setting is this good, the details have to keep up. Handcrafted exotic hardwood carts, La Marzocco espresso, and a barista team that fits the occasion — not just fills a station.
Lakeside Weddings
From the Lafayette Club ballroom to a private reception on the bay, waterfront weddings deserve a reception to match. Late-night espresso service while the sun drops behind the tree line. A handcrafted cart glowing under the string lights. Guests holding lattes on the lawn. That’s the scene.
Summer Entertaining
Dock parties. Fourth of July. The annual lake gathering that keeps growing. Nitro cold brew on tap. Iced lattes in the sun. Smoothies for the kids. The cart becomes the center of gravity and everyone gravitates.
Galas and Fundraisers
Lake Minnetonka fundraisers draw the crowd that notices craftsmanship. The rosewood cart. The Bocote wood machine panels. The pour. When the equipment matches the cause, people open their wallets wider and stay longer.
Everything arrives with us. Your only job is to enjoy the lake.
Every Lake Minnetonka coffee catering booking arrives complete. Professional baristas, commercial equipment, full setup, cleanup, and everything in between.
La Marzocco GS/3
A $9,000 commercial espresso machine with custom Bocote wood side panels. Paired with Mahlkönig E80 grinders. The sound of the steam wand carries across the lawn. People follow it.
Materials That Belong Here
Lake Superior white oak submerged for 100 years, topped with walnut. Patagonian rosewood. Japanese Shou Sugi Ban. Every cart was built to be a conversation piece in exactly this kind of setting.
Nitro Cold Brew
Served on draft from a dual-tap system. The cascading pour catches the afternoon light and draws a crowd. Made for lakeside summer events.
Ripples Latte Art
Monograms, logos, a photo of the lake house — printed directly on the foam in technicolor. Available when requested, at no extra charge. The most photographed moment at any gathering.
“We do a big lake party every summer. Last year we added La Vita and now it’s the only thing people ask about when the invite goes out. The cart looked like it was built for the property.”David — Private Party, Lake Minnetonka MN
