Wedding coffee bar + coffee cart catering that feels like a real café
Nine Tenths Coffee Co. is a family-run coffee cart service based in Boone, North Carolina. It’s Reed and Mariah, a cart, a killer espresso setup, and a big heart for people. We donate 10% of profits, because giving back is part of why we started in the first place.
Reed learned coffee behind the counter at Stickboy Bakery from 2019 to 2022, then kept the dream on the back burner until the right moment. Christmas 2024, Mariah’s parents surprised us with a Rocket Appartamento espresso machine and Eureka grinder. A few months later, we sent a simple message to a friend who runs a wedding venue (The Mill at Rock Creek) and that little idea turned into our first wedding booking on September 13th, 2025. We built the cart with help from friends and neighbors, got it painted and plumbed, and we’ve been pouring ever since.
If you’re planning a wedding, corporate gathering, birthday party, or special occasion, we bring coffee for events in a way that’s warm, aesthetic, homemade, and clean. Think open-bar style service, but with lattes.
Coffee service for events, served like an open bar
Most coffee options at events are… a carafe on a table. We’re not that. We show up with a full espresso bar and a friendly team, set everything up, serve your guests quickly, and clean it all up after.
When it comes to coffee cart catering, the difference is simple: your guests get handcrafted drinks made to order, and you don’t have to manage a thing — we’ve got it.
What we serve
We keep the menu focused and crowd-pleasing, so lines move fast and everyone leaves happy. Your coffee station can include:
Espresso based drinks (lattes, cappuccinos, americanos)
Drip coffee
Cold brew
Matcha (hot or iced)
Milk options and simple, delicious flavors
You’ll hear “this is so good” a lot
Coffee bar services that’s fun, smooth, and easy to book
You’re hosting friends, family, coworkers, or clients, and you want it to feel taken care of. That’s what we do. Our barista catering is high-touch without being high-maintenance. We’re quick with communication, easy to coordinate with vendors, and happy to help you build something that fits your crowd.
We can customize the customer experience through your brand on the cart, cups, and even drink names. Hosting a corporate event? Let’s feature your logo. Planning a wedding? Let’s create a custom menu with drinks inspired by you.
Our coffee cart naturally becomes a centerpiece. It draws people in, creates conversation, and looks beautiful in photos. It’s not just coffee. It’s part of the atmosphere.
