Party on! Let Espressoul Café cater your next gathering

May 26, 20232 min read

Since 2021, Espressoul Café has been setting up shop at various areas around Tucson, dishing out its matcha lattes, smoothies, and unique coffee creations. However, did you know that the mobile beverage unit offers catering?

As a matter of fact, Esspressoul Café has been providing catering options since the beginning. Owner and operator, Eris Movahedi, has popped up at large events, employee appreciation gatherings, birthday parties, and weddings.

“I haven’t shined a light on the catering aspect as much but people have reached out,” said Movahedi. “Sometimes we’ve had requests to be at certain spots so our regulars can come and visit.”

What’s on the Menu?

Recently, Movahedi, who grew up in Iran, took her business to a whole new level by spending time in Italy — in Rome and Florence — where espresso has been perfected over the years of its existence.

With summer on the brightly lit horizon, and folks spending taking time off from work and hanging with friends and family, Espressoul’s catering service comes in clutch.

“The full menu is available at catering as well,” said Movahedi. “We want everyone to experience Espressoul the way it is — specialty espresso lattes, matcha lattes, smoothies, refreshers, etc.”

One of the most popular drinks is the Persian Persuasion — a mix of saffron, rose, and cardamom. Made with either oat, almond, or coconut milk, this one along with the Blueberry Lavender, Mojito, Golden, and Shokolat lattes are all 100% vegan.

Making a Request

If you’re seeking catering in the Tucson area, there’s a $350 minimum. If it’s outside of the Old Pueblo there will be a gas fee involved as well (depending on the location).

Right now, the best way to request catering is to reach out via Instagram (the best option) or Facebook. Movahedi is always coming up with new creations, too, and to say they’re excited to host your next get-together this summer would be an understatement.

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.

Anne Rysdale built @sheltercocktaillounge in 1961 with concrete walls, lava rock, and Cold War nerves. Today, owners Pam Santangelo and Kevin Breutzmann keep the Tucson bar exactly as regulars remember it. Inside, martinis share space with JFK memorabilia, a vintage atomic chandelier, and a suit of armor named Charlie. “Tucson is changing so much, but this has stayed the same. It’s a time capsule,” Santangelo said.
