Branded Coffee Cart Hire UK — Where Coffee Becomes Brand Experience
Few things stop people in their tracks like the aroma of freshly ground coffee.
It’s warm, familiar, and human — everything a great brand should be.
At Cocktails With Mario, we transform that simple moment into a marketing art form.
Our branded coffee cart activations bring creativity, craftsmanship, and conversation to retail launches, PR stunts, and corporate experiences across the UK.
From O2 and Russell & Bromley to TK Maxx, brands trust us to turn hospitality into storytelling — every cup a moment of connection.
THE
TEAM
Coffee as a Medium for Connection
When O2 prepared its Samsung rollout, the goal was simple: create energy on the high street.
We deployed eight fully branded carts nationwide, each self-contained, wrapped in campaign artwork, and staffed by professional baristas trained for engagement.

Lines formed before stores opened. Visitors scanned QR codes, joined loyalty programs, and shared their experience online.
Coffee became conversation — and measurable ROI.
Our coffee activation carts in the UK are designed for experiential marketing: compact, autonomous, and visually impactful for high-street and retail campaigns.
Retail Launch Excellence — TK Maxx Eastbourne
For TK Maxx’s new Eastbourne flagship, we built a bespoke outdoor cart that mirrored the store’s vibrant energy.
Our team handled design, logistics, and on-site coordination so the brand’s team could focus on guests and content.

We continue to deliver corporate coffee activations across London and the UK, helping brands engage audiences through hospitality-led experiences that feel authentic and human.
