Coffee Cart Catering in Bexley

Bexley sits on the banks of Alum Creek just east of the Near East Side, with the National Road running through town as Main Street, Capital University at College and Main, and the grounds of Jeffrey Mansion to the north. It was also the first city in the country to be accredited as an arboretum. Our home base in King-Lincoln Bronzeville is a short drive west, so The Wandering Dojo brings a staffed espresso bar to Bexley homes, offices, schools and community events, with a barista pulling every drink to order.

Planning around Bexley

Many Bexley homes are older, with porches, side drives and gardens rather than open event space, so we plan around the house: send us a photo of where you'd like the cart. For Main Street businesses, tell us about parking and the closest entrance. Campuses and venues often set their own rules for outside catering, so send us the venue and date and we'll confirm before you commit.

Why hosts book us

Bexley gatherings tend to be close-knit: a neighborhood party, a school fundraiser, a family milestone. A staffed bar keeps the host out of the kitchen, with every drink made to order. Every booking includes the Classics menu, hot or iced, and you can add Signature Pours like The Bronzeville Cortado, named for the neighborhood we call home. See the full menu.

Pricing and logistics

Events start at $825 for 25 guests and 2 hours, with more carts and baristas added as your guest count grows. A 50% deposit holds your date. We need two separate dedicated 15 to 20 amp circuits at the setup spot. For outdoor events, plan a covered backup location in case of rain.

Questions we hear in Bexley

Do you travel to Bexley?

Yes. Bexley is a short drive from our home base in King-Lincoln Bronzeville and part of our regular service area.

Can you set up inside an older home?

Usually, yes. The cart needs a level spot about 4 feet by 28 inches and two dedicated circuits. Send us a photo of the space and we'll confirm.

Can you serve at a campus or venue in Bexley?

Often, yes. Campuses and venues set their own rules for outside catering, so send us the venue and date and we'll check what they need, including a certificate of insurance.

How many guests can one cart serve?

Each barista serves about 50 drinks an hour. A 40-guest house party over two hours runs on one barista, while a school event where everyone arrives at once may need a second. We size it in your quote.
