It’s been a really great start for us at Social Espresso in 2016.
Our mobile coffee bar service has already brewed thousands of cappuccinos, americanos, espressos, flat whites, lattes and hot chocolates, all with a choice of whole milk, semi-skimmed milk, almond milk or soy milk, along with teas including English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Mint, Green, Assam and Camomile.
Our mobile baristas have been all over the place, from Glasgow to Goodwood, from Silverstone to Superdry on Tottenham Court road in London’s busy West End, and from London’s North End Road market to Lavender Hill.
And our event coffee venues and clients have included Harvey Nichols (where we had our new La Marzocco high-end espresso coffee machine), Ferrari, Vogue, Habitat and Superdry.
Highlights from the year include the introduction of new custom cappuccino stencils from @thestencilstudio. Then in September we set up a mobile barista bar in the Drivers’ Lounge at Silverstone, and in October and November we were serving our speciality coffee at Goodwood – all three events were for Ferrari track days (even getting the chance to drive one of the cars!).
And just as we though the year was wrapping up, late December saw us serving coffee on the ground floor of the Superdry store on Regent Street, providing a warming treat for people doing all their last minute Christmas shopping.
One odd thing that we have noticed since launching Social Espresso is that occasionally people accidentally get the wrong spelling of our name, thinking that it’s Social Expresso. It’s pretty understandable, as ‘espresso’ is quite often misspelt as ‘expresso’. But if you’re ever looking for us online, the search term you want is definitely Social Espresso (with an ‘s’, with our Instagram handle being @socialespresso_ (definitely not @socialexpresso!).
Happy New Year to everyone, and if you want to find out about how we can help your exhibition, press day, conference, festival, wedding, product launch or any other event be a success, call us on 020 3808 9126, or email us at events@socialespresso.co.uk.
