Weddings & receptions
The cart becomes the spot guests keep coming back to. Late-night lattes after dinner, an espresso bar during cocktail hour, or a matcha moment at a Dallas–Fort Worth brunch reception.

the encounter coffee truck
A coffee truck your guests will line up for
Encounter Coffee brings a green and cream VW bus to your Dallas–Fort Worth event — baristas, espresso machine, beans and all — and serves handcrafted espresso, specialty coffee and ceremonial matcha to order through the window.
A mobile coffee truck does two jobs at once. It is the coffee, and it is the thing people walk over to see. The bus pulls up, the window opens, the menu goes out front, and within a few minutes there is a line — which is exactly what you want at an employee appreciation morning, a campus event or a brand activation.
Nothing on board is pre-made. Beans are roasted fresh before your event and ground to order, syrups are made from scratch, and the matcha is ceremonial grade, whisked by hand. Every drink goes out in a branded cup.
We bring the coffee truck to events across the Metroplex — Fort Worth, Dallas, Arlington, Plano, Frisco, Southlake, Irving and the rest of North Texas. Hosting indoors? We also run a coffee cart with the same baristas and the same menu.

what's included
What comes with coffee truck catering in Dallas–Fort Worth
One booking covers everything on the coffee side. We arrive ahead of schedule, park the coffee truck, serve your guests, and pack it all away afterwards.
The coffee truck, parked and serving
We pull the VW bus in ahead of schedule, open the serving window, and pack it all away afterwards. You do not lift a thing.
Handcrafted espresso, coffee and matcha
Lattes, cappuccinos, americanos, cold brew, drip and ceremonial-grade matcha — every drink made to order, one guest at a time.
Professional baristas who talk to your guests
Our baristas are the reason the cart becomes the gathering spot rather than a station people pass once. They keep the line moving without rushing anyone through what should be a memorable part of the day.
A custom menu board
Printed with your names, your logo, your event — signage that ties the cart to the rest of your styling. Guests read their own name at the top of the coffee menu.
House-made syrups
Vanilla, honey, hazelnut, lavender and caramel, made from scratch — plus seasonal specialty drinks we build for the event.
Branded cups
Every drink leaves the cart on-brand and photographs beautifully in every guest's hand all night.
the drink menu
A specialty coffee menu your guests will actually talk about
Our beans are imported from farms around the world and roasted fresh before each event — not pulled off a shelf. Syrups are made from scratch, and the matcha is ceremonial grade. We build the final menu with you, so a Dallas–Fort Worth wedding and a Monday-morning office pop-up never get the same list.

coffee truck faq
Coffee truck catering questions
What planners, office managers and hosts ask us most before booking the truck. Anything not covered here, put it on the quote form.
How much does it cost to book a coffee truck in Dallas–Fort Worth?
Coffee truck pricing moves with three things: how many guests you're serving, how many hours you want the window open, and what is on the drink menu. A two-hour office morning and a full afternoon at a campus event are not the same booking, so we quote each event individually instead of publishing one number that would be wrong for most people.
Send us your date, location and rough head count and we'll come back with real pricing plus a proposed menu — no obligation.
What kind of coffee truck is it?
A green and cream VW bus, built out as a mobile espresso bar. Our baristas work on board and serve through the side window, with the drink menu posted right beside it. It is a real espresso setup — grinder, espresso machine and a matcha station — not a drip coffee van.
What is the difference between your coffee truck and your coffee cart?
Same baristas, same beans, same menu. The coffee truck is the pick for outdoor events where a vehicle can pull up — parking lots, plazas, campuses, festivals and storefronts. The coffee cart goes where a vehicle can't: ballrooms, office floors, lobbies and indoor receptions. Tell us about the venue on the quote form and we'll recommend the right one.
Where in DFW does the coffee truck travel?
All of Dallas–Fort Worth and the rest of North Texas — Fort Worth, Dallas, Arlington, Plano, Frisco, Southlake, Irving, McKinney, Denton and the cities in between. If your event is somewhere else in North Texas, ask on the quote form and we'll confirm travel.
What do you need on site for the coffee truck?
A level spot the bus can pull into and room for guests to line up at the window. Every location is different, so tell us where you'd like it parked on the quote form and we'll confirm the specifics — access, power and timing — with you or your coordinator well before the day.
What drinks does the coffee truck serve?
Lattes, cappuccinos, americanos and espresso, cold brew, drip coffee and iced coffee, plus ceremonial-grade matcha lattes. Syrups are made from scratch — vanilla, honey, hazelnut, lavender and caramel — and oat milk and almond milk are always on board, with decaf on request. Ask about seasonal specialty drinks or a signature drink for your event.
Can you bring the coffee truck to an office, school or campus?
Yes. Employee appreciation mornings, teacher and staff thank-yous, campus events and client days are a natural fit for the truck — it parks outside, the line forms at the window, and nobody has to clear a conference room. Tell us who you're treating and roughly how many and we'll plan the menu and the pace around it.
How far in advance should I book the coffee truck?
As early as you can. We're booking 2026 and 2027 dates, and spring and fall weekends go first. If you have a date in mind it is worth asking now even if the rest of your details are still moving.
