The coffee bar your guests remember

One couple told us the coffee was the star of their wedding — guests couldn't stop talking about it all evening. That's what a wedding coffee bar from Melu's Cafe is built to do.

Our baristas pull single-origin Colombian espresso on a La Marzocco machine and hand-whisk ceremonial-grade matcha, serving lattes, cappuccinos, mochas and specialty matcha, hot or iced — a real espresso bar for your wedding, not urns on a table.

Time it for cocktail hour, dessert or a last espresso before the send-off, and add your names to the cups and a signature drink to the menu. We're based in Forest Hills, Queens, minutes from the Nassau County line.

our story

Colombian coffee, served with the warmth of home

Melu's Cafe was started by barista Melissa Sanchez from a love for Colombian specialty coffee — and the belief that a beautiful cup, served from a mobile coffee bar, can brighten any moment.

As a Colombian-owned business, we focus on intentional brewing, meticulous quality and sustainable choices. Every drink is soft, simple and elevated, made to give you and your guests a gentle pause in the day.

Wedding
We couldn’t have asked for a better coffee station for our wedding! From start to finish, Melissa was absolutely amazing — incredibly responsible, professional, and so warm and friendly. She did everything with a genuine smile and made sure every detail was taken care of. But the coffee itself was truly the star! Our guests could not stop talking about how delicious the coffee was. We heard so many compliments throughout the evening, and everyone was raving about the incredible taste and quality of the drinks. Melissa brought such a wonderful energy to our wedding, and her service was just as impressive as the coffee. She went above and beyond to make everything perfect, and we are so grateful. If you’re looking for a coffee station for your wedding or special event, we highly, highly recommend Melissa! Amazing coffee, amazing service, and an amazing person. She was a beautiful addition to our special day! ❤️☕️

Bridal shower
Melu's coffee and matcha cart were part of my daughter's "She's Off the Market" Bridal Shower! The cart fit in perfectly to our Bridal Marketplace theme. Melu's baristas - Hoa and Noah - were punctual and professional, and both had great personalities. The coffee or matcha chosen was offered hot or over ice. All the choices made a huge hit with our guests - it worked out so well, I'm booking them again for our Wedding Farewell Brunch which is in 2 months!

Evening event
I cannot say enough good things about Melu’s cart and the service provided at our event. They were communicative before and came right on time to set up before our event. The actual drinks at our event were amazing and the lines were so long as every guest lined up for drinks throughout the night. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to make sure their event is memorable and give a unique experience

Bridal shower
We had Melu’s Café at my sister’s bridal shower, and it was such a great experience! She was incredibly sweet, so easy to work with, and made the whole process stress-free from start to finish. The drinks were delicious, the setup was beautiful, and everything matched our theme perfectly. Our guests loved it and kept asking for her information. I would highly recommend her for any special event! ☕✨

questions?

Good things to know

Can we have coffee and matcha at the same event?

Yes. Our coffee & matcha cart serves both from one setup — espresso drinks for the coffee lovers, ceremonial-grade matcha for everyone else.

How much does a coffee cart cost on Long Island?

Every event is quoted on its own — pricing depends on your guest count, how long you want service, your menu and any custom branding. Share your date, location and guest count in the form on this page and we'll send your custom pricing.

Can you customize the menu?

Yes. We tailor syrups, milk options and signature drinks to your event, so the menu can match your theme, your brand or the two of you.

What drinks are on the menu?

Our base menu has espresso, flat whites, cappuccinos, americanos, vanilla, caramel and mocha lattes, hot chocolate and tea — every drink hot or iced. Specialty drinks include the matcha latte, Biscoff latte, strawberry, mango, raspberry, ube and jasmine tea matcha, matcha coconut cloud and ube latte.

What do you need from the venue?

One dedicated standard 120V outlet, a smooth flat surface and a space of at least 6' x 5' for the cart and barista. We don't need onsite water for espresso service, and the cart fits through standard doorways and elevators.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can — our calendar fills up, and custom cups or cart wraps need time to produce. Put your date in the form to check availability.
