Classic Black Cab Hire | Event & Bar Fleet
The Black Cab Coffee Co was founded in 2012 by coffee lover and entrepreneur Graham Buck with a mission to bring London’s iconic style and specialty roasting to the global stage. As the pioneers of transforming authentic London black cabs into high-end mobile barista units, we have become the Classic Black Cab ‘mobile coffee icons’ for corporate events, film productions, brand activations and private gatherings. By combining our own small-batch roasted beans with the character of a London landmark, we deliver a bespoke coffee bar experience that is as reliable as it is unforgettable.

WHY THE CAB?
It all began with an engineered transformation of an iconic London Black Cab into the world’s first high-end mobile barista unit. Combining technical skill with a deep passion for specialty roasting, Gray built both the cabs and the brand from inception, creating a unique ‘crowd-stopper’ that stands out at every event. Today, that original vision has grown into a premier fleet of bespoke coffee cabs and mobile bars, providing reliable and unforgettable craft services, vehicle hire, and brand activations across the UK
