We popped up poolside in the Santa Barbara Riviera for a pool brunch party for a wedding! The groom, Feelix, works at a popular coffee shop in town called Handlebar. He really wanted the best coffee for his guests. There were many iced vanilla lattes made. Congratulations Feelix and Shelby! You two are the sweetest. We were so honored to be a part of your big day.
Brunch, Beer, and Coffee in the Funk Zone
Brass Bear Brewing, located in the Funk Zone, just started doing Sunday Brunch! We popped up and started making espresso drinks for their customers. Getting the day started with delicious brunch and coffee on a Sunday. What more could you ask for?
June Gloom Festival
We collaborated with Dart Coffee Roasters for the June Gloom Festival at Porch in Carpinteria. There was live music and creative workshops and delicious coffee! I was experimenting all day long on the machine with Dart's coffee; Peru, Mexico, Guatemala, and Ethiopia. The families appreciated having us there, and the kids LOVED the hot chocolates.
Waffles and Coffee for Employees
Continental had a great Friday for their employees, hiring the coffee cart and making waffles and crepes. It was the most delicious gig I've attended so far. Many of the employees are from Europe, having a deep appreciation for espresso. It turned into a social hangout, with everyone enjoying their cappuccinos and crepes.
Coffee After Wine Tasting
Sanguis Winery is a private winery in Santa Barbara. They threw a party for their clients to showcase the new wines they just put out. Pop-Up was the theme. The chefs from Julienne were cooking up flatbreads in the back with a wood-fire pizza. Welcome Coffee Cart was a pick-me-up for the guests heading out after a long day of wine tasting.

Backyard Birthday
A surprise birthday party was thrown for Marie! The coffee cart had something for everyone, including fresh brioche donuts and hot chocolates for the kids.
The Old Yacht Club Inn
We popped up over Memorial Day Weekend at the Old Yacht Club Inn. It is a boutique hotel near East Beach in Santa Barbara. The guests and passer-byers were treated with delicious espresso beverages and pastries. The baker was the Inn's 6 year old son Dylan, who made vegan muffins and banana chocolate loafs. It was a fun collaboration and a nice hang out Saturday, Sunday, and Monday!
Maseratis and Coffee
There is a Maserati Club in Santa Barbara who meet up once a year. The combination of the coffee cart and the classic cars made for a really beautiful aesthetic. Every detail is important with these classic cars. I feel the same way with the coffee cart.
A Coffee Cart on Top of Gibraltar Mountain
The Tour of California came through Santa Barbara to finish their 3rd Stage on Gibraltar Mountain. Handlebar Coffee Shop, Breakfast, and Welcome Coffee Cart collaborated to serve coffee for everyone coming to see the finish. It was an amazing thing to see a coffee shop on top of a mountain serving hundreds of bicyclists and fans.
Yachts and Coffee
Welcome was set up on the dock for guests aboard a private yacht to grab a coffee as they were coming and going. This was a networking event for SFA Design aboard Yacht Tamsen. Irish Lattes were being served until 3 a.m. for NBA players, actors, and artists. Cuba Good Jr. was a big fan.
