What Corporate Coffee Catering Looks Like with Solarium
Most corporate coffee catering means a box of drip coffee and some creamers on a folding table. Solarium is something different.
We roll in a self-contained espresso cart stocked with everything your team needs for a full cafe experience. Every drink is made to order by Ben or Halle. Lattes, cappuccinos, americanos, iced drinks, and our rotating seasonal menu are all available. We bring house-made syrups, including our signature Halle's Morning vanilla latte and rotating seasonal flavors like Clovara (maple, clove, orange) in the fall and Orange Blossom in the spring.
Your team does not wait in a long line. Our setup is built for efficiency. One barista serves approximately 50 drinks per hour. For larger events, we run two baristas simultaneously.
The cart fits in a 6x6 ft footprint, needs one standard 15-amp outlet and a 25 ft extension cord, and works indoors or outdoors. We bring our own water supply. No plumbing needed.
What's Included in Every Corporate Booking
Every Solarium booking includes:
Unlimited specialty espresso drinks from our event menu (espressos, americanos, cappuccinos, lattes, iced drinks, seasonal offerings)
Single-origin espresso from George Howell Coffee Company
House-made syrups including year round favorites and seasonal options
Professional baristas (Ben and Halle, personally, at every event)
All cups and lids for hot and iced drinks
Whole milk and oat milk as standard (almond milk available with advance notice)
Water supply, waste handling, full setup and breakdown
No travel fee for most locations in Boston and MetroWest
Events We've Served for Corporate Clients
Employee appreciation days. The most common corporate booking we get. A morning espresso bar in the lobby or break room gives your team a genuine perk, not a gift card.
Client-facing events and meetings. When the coffee is noticeably good, clients notice. We have served executive meetings, investor presentations, and client appreciation events where the espresso bar became a conversation starter.
Company milestones and celebrations. Office openings, anniversaries, product launches. Our cart adds energy to the event without requiring additional coordination from your team.
Conferences and multi-day events. For high-volume conference service, see our dedicated conference and expo page with capacity planning and multi-barista pricing.

From Quote to Event Day in Four StepsEasy to Book, Easier to Work With
1. Tell us about your event. Date, location, estimated headcount, and how many hours of service you need. Our quote form collects everything. Ben or Halle responds the same day, usually within minutes.
2. Review your quote. We confirm barista count, service duration, any add-ons, and travel fee if applicable. You see the full number before committing to anything.
3. Confirm and prepay. We hold your date with a prepaid booking. For events with branding add-ons, we coordinate those details in the two weeks before your event.
4. We show up and handle everything. We arrive before your first employees do. We run clean, efficient service throughout, and leave your space exactly as we found it. The people you've been texting are the people behind the cart.
