Mobile Espresso Bar Catering Across Florida

Bendecido Coffee is a Tampa-based mobile espresso cart company run by husband-and-wife team Matt and Nataly Ashwood, who trained as baristas in Florence, Italy. Over three years and more than 380 events, we've grown to three carts and a team of eight professional baristas. Our home base is Tampa Bay, and for significant events we bring the full Bendecido experience to cities across Florida, with handcrafted lattes, cappuccinos and iced drinks made to order.

How Travel Works

Because every out-of-town event starts in Tampa, travel costs are built into your quote, so there are no surprises later. Share your city, venue, date, guest count and service hours through our quote form, and we'll send a complete quote that covers it all.

On event day we arrive at least 70 minutes before service, often earlier for travel events. All we need is a power outlet within 25 feet of the cart and a wheelchair-accessible venue.

Not the Right Fit? We'll Connect You

Sometimes traveling from Tampa doesn't make sense for a smaller or shorter event. When that happens, we'll tell you plainly and gladly share our connections to trusted coffee carts in other major Florida cities. Either way, you'll get great coffee.
