  • Freight-elevator friendly. The cart breaks down for freight elevators and tight loading docks. Send us your building's vendor rules; we take it from there.

  • Self-contained. No power, no water, no kitchen access needed — 6×6 feet and we're pouring.

  • In and out clean. 30–40 minute setup, quiet breakdown, zero disruption to the floor.

What We Offer

Every booking includes phin-brewed Vietnamese coffee (made the traditional way), signature matcha cold foam drinks for non-coffee drinkers, and unlimited servings throughout your service window. Our clean, mobile coffee cart setup elevates any event atmosphere — and the drinks speak for themselves. First-time tasters love them, and regulars always come back for more.

Optional Add-Ons

Make it yours. We can curate signature drinks and a fully custom menu for your event, offer pre-bottled coffee for swag bags or gifting, and supply branded cups, sleeves, and signage with your logo or theme. Themed menu concepts — coconut-focused, seasonal specials, collaborations — are always on the table. We also offer tasting moments and education cards to introduce guests to phin brewing and Vietnamese coffee culture.

Booking & Logistics

Our mobile Vietnamese coffee cart serves all five NYC boroughs — Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx — as well as nearby New Jersey. Setup requires approximately 6ft × 6ft, and with baristas on site we can serve up to 50–80 handcrafted drinks per hour. To hold your date, we collect a 35% deposit upfront. The remaining balance is settled before event day — easy, straightforward, no surprises. Dairy-free and menu customization options are available for every booking.

  • First Phin First barista preparing signature Vietnamese coffee drinks for an event

    Chad makes some of the best viet coffee around. My friends and I tasted the coconut latte and cà phê muõi or salted coffee - and let’s just say we were REALLY PRESENT for the next 4 hours. Incredible blend of condensed milk to balance the beans, a total treat! Can’t wait for the next cup ❤️

  • Guests enjoying Vietnamese coffee cocktails on a rooftop event in New York City with First Phin First mobile coffee bar

    First Phin First was great to work with from start to finish. They showed up on time, were super professional, and made everything easy over the 10 day pop-up. The Vietnamese coffee was honestly some of the best I’ve had, strong, smooth, and really well done. You can tell they care about quality! Friendly team, excellent service, and great coffee. Highly recommend for events or anyone looking for authentic Vietnamese coffee.
