Questions about booking a coffee cart
Do you cater corporate meetings and office events?
Yes. I set up a full mobile espresso bar or drop off carafes of fresh drip coffee for staff meetings, staff and client appreciation, wellness days and company celebrations. Past clients include teams at Manitoba Hydro, IG and Lululemon.
How far ahead should we book?
One to two weeks ahead is ideal. The minimum is five days' notice, and I can't take bookings within 48 hours.
Can you invoice our company?
Yes. Gratitude Grind is GST registered, and corporate clients get professional invoices with 15 to 30 day payment terms. Larger events need a 20% deposit.
How many guests can the cart serve?
Up to 100 guests, with up to four hours of service, so every drink gets real care.
What do you need from our office or venue?
One standard power outlet, about 6 by 8 feet of floor space and step-free or ramp access. The cart itself is 4 by 6 feet and fits through standard office doors and in passenger or freight elevators. Setup takes 60 to 75 minutes, and I can arrive as early as 7:30 a.m.
Do you offer baking?
Yes. Banana bread, chocolate chip cookies and peanut butter cookies, plus muffins, cookies and scones for corporate events. Gluten-free and vegan options may be available on request.
Can you put our logo on the cups?
Yes. Send your logo stickers or stamps and they go on the cups at no extra charge.
What's the difference between the Espresso Bar and the Coffee Bar?
The Espresso Bar serves made-to-order drinks like lattes, cappuccinos, americanos and London fogs, plus chai, matcha, iced coffee and hot chocolate. The Coffee Bar serves freshly brewed drip coffee in medium or dark roast. Both include teas, dairy and non-dairy milks, syrups and the signature “I Am” cups.
How much does it cost?
Every quote is built from three parts: a setup and teardown fee, barista time, and a beverage package based on your guest count and menu. Drinks from the agreed menu are unlimited during the booked time. Monthly corporate bookings get 10% off.
Do you travel outside Winnipeg?
Yes, to communities within about an hour of Winnipeg in any direction. Travel fees range from $50 to $100 depending on distance.
How can we pay?
Debit, credit, tap, cash or e-transfer, or by invoice for corporate clients.
