Coffee catering for events
A mobile coffee bar for the moments people remember.
Locke brings the same specialty coffee standards we use in Newport into a clean, event-ready service that feels local, considered, and easy for planners to work with.
The offering is simple because the service should be simple: tell us the guest count, where the cart goes, what kind of event it is, and whether the menu should feel classic, seasonal, or branded. We will shape the drink list and setup around that.
Event types
