Your logo on every latte. Our Brew Captains on every detail.
The best moment of a corporate event is rarely the keynote. It's the line at the espresso bar, where people slow down, talk, and hold a drink with your company's name printed on the foam. The Bow Bar brings that moment to offices, conferences, client events and campuses across Rhode Island, and takes the whole thing off your plate.
Espresso at volume is a specialized service
Almost nobody staffs it internally. It takes commercial equipment, a trained operator, and it's only worth owning for a handful of events a year. We bring all of it: no equipment, no training, no labor on your side. You pick the date and the drinks. We handle sourcing, setup, service and breakdown.
What's included
A fully brandable espresso cart, wrapped with your logo or colors on request
Professional Brew Captains, trained on commercial espresso and comfortable in a corporate room
Made-to-order lattes, cappuccinos, Americanos, nitro cold brew, fresh drip and decaf, with whole and oat milk
Tea and chai on request, plus a custom menu designed for your event
Our custom beverage printing machine, which prints your logo, a photo or a message directly on the foam
Spring-filtered, mineral-balanced water for every cup
Complete setup, service and breakdown
Each espresso machine serves about 45 guests per hour. Service starts at $1,150 with a two-hour minimum.

Frequently asked questions
How many guests can a corporate espresso bar serve?
Each machine serves about 45 guests per hour. For larger groups or a short service window we add a second machine and Brew Captain, so a 200-person all-hands is no problem.
Can you print our company logo on the drinks?
Yes. Our custom beverage printing machine prints any image - a logo, a headshot, a campaign graphic - on lattes, cold foam and espresso martinis. Send us any picture.
Do you serve offices and venues with no kitchen?
Yes. We bring our own water, power needs are modest, and the cart fits through a standard doorway. We've served boardrooms, lobbies, hotel ballrooms and tents.
Where in Rhode Island do you serve?
All of it - Newport, Providence, Warwick, East Greenwich, South County and the East Bay - plus corporate events across Southern New England.
What does corporate coffee catering cost?
Service starts at $1,150 with a two-hour minimum. Final pricing depends on guest count, hours and branding. Every proposal is custom.
