What is a Coffee Van?

A coffee van is a great way to get your caffeine fix on the go! It’s a mobile café that can be set up at various locations with its own set of equipment and selling products and services. These vans are outfitted with all the necessary equipment to make and sell coffee, so you can enjoy a hot cup of joe no matter where you are. Some coffee vans also sell food, snacks, or sweets to go along with their beverages, and some even offer alternative drinks for those who don’t love coffee. You can find coffee vans at permanent locations or at venues such as weddings, functions or sporting events, making them a convenient option for all your caffeine needs.

 

History of the Coffee van 

There isn’t too much known about the history of the coffee van specifically. What we do know is that the idea evolved from what we now know as the food truck. The concept of the food truck has been around for centuries, it started with the chuck wagon which was invented in 1866 by a man named Charles Goodnight to cart food around. The term “food truck” didn’t come into common usage until the early 1900s, however, when they were used to sell ice cream and other refreshments to factory workers. In the years since, food trucks have evolved to become a staple in many large cities, offering residents and visitors alike a convenient way to enjoy a variety of cuisines. As food trucks became more popular, they began to specialize in different cuisines and use different vehicles to sell their food.

With a deep appreciation for the art and science behind the perfect cup coffee, Skye and Josh are dedicated to sharing their knowledge and experiences with fellow coffee enthusiasts.
