Why coffee foam is the point

Opening week is morning trade. Guests already photograph the cup. A logo or QR selfie on latte foam is the product. Stout printing is a different night.

Couriered UK-wide from Cardiff. West and Wales dates are often simpler on courier timing; we still cover the rest of the UK.

Package prices are hire fees and include a £150 booking fee (that £150 is not charged on top). The £150 is paid at booking to confirm. Example: a party at £395 is a £150 booking fee plus a £245 balance. The £300 refundable damage deposit is due with that balance, 60 days before the event, and is refunded after a clean return (usually 7 working days). A party is £695 to send before the event, of which £300 comes back if the machine is fine. If you book inside 60 days, the full hire fee and the deposit are both due at booking.

Prices include VAT only where shown on your invoice; we will say if we are VAT-registered.
