Product Description
Commercial coffee service demands durable white porcelain crockery. Booking your espresso cup - 3.5oz hire secures professional-grade cups that hold a standard single or double shot. Each unit weighs just 0.11kg and features rolled edges to resist chips during busy service periods. Event organisers rely on these specific 0.05m high cups for corporate breakfast briefings, exhibition stands, and post-dinner gala service. The vitrified porcelain construction reduces porosity, preventing coffee stains from setting into the material over time.
Espresso cup - 3.5oz hire for Corporate Events
Serving hundreds of delegates generates significant washing up. Expo Hire removes this burden entirely with our "Send It Back Dirty" service. Your catering staff pack the used cups back into their crates unwashed, and our warehouse team handles the cleaning. Every order also includes a Free Minor Damage Waiver, protecting you against the cost of accidental breakages during your event. This waiver applies automatically to all breakable items, giving your team peace of mind during fast-paced hospitality service.
Pair these cups with matching espresso saucers to complete your coffee station. Experienced baristas stack these cups next to commercial machines to speed up service. You can also browse our wider crockery hire section to match your main dining service. Adding catering equipment hire items helps you build a complete hot drinks station for your venue. Independent caterers frequently order these cups alongside water glasses and teaspoons to equip their temporary cafes.
We operate 11 regional depots, calculating delivery from £40 based on the road distance to your venue. You track your delivery vehicle live on the day via SMS updates. The website displays live stock levels and pricing without requiring a phone call. We require no security deposit, keeping your budget clear for other event necessities. You can opt for warehouse self-collection from our Birmingham headquarters between Monday and Friday. Select your dates and add your quantities to the basket to confirm your booking online.
