But first, let's get to know the founders. Hannah, a coffee aficionado, has been in the industry for over a decade. She is not only a skilled barista but also a devoted wife and mother to her son Skye, as well as two furry companions. Ryan, on the other hand, comes from an engineering background and previously worked for the renowned company Tesla in California. He is a loving husband and father, who loves coffee!
Solo is inspired by a charming coffee shop they stumbled upon in California—a walk-up window without seating—Hannah and Ryan decided they wanted to bring this personal and intimate coffee experience to Cincinnati. They wanted to escape the fast pace often associated with coffee shops and create a more meaningful connection with their customers. After thorough research, the duo realized that starting with a mobile coffee cart would allow them to showcase their passion while introducing the San Francisco/California vibe into the local coffee scene right here in Cincinnati, OH.
SOLO is a mobile espresso coffee bar that caters to a range of events, including weddings, corporate gatherings, parties, fundraisers, and pop-ups. Based in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky, the business is also willing to travel to Lexington, Louisville, and Dayton. Their goal is to create a personalized coffee experience that adds a touch of luxury to any occasion.
For their coffee offerings, Solo Coffee partners with Deeper Roots, a local coffee roasting company known for its quality and diverse selection of beans. From espresso, cortado, cappuccino, and lattes to mochas, Americanos, homemade lavender, vanilla syrup, and hot chocolate, they have an array of options to satisfy your taste buds. They also provide hot tea, chai tea, matcha, and customizable drinks like cold brew.
When asked about their favorite moments, Hannah expressed her love for weddings, as they allow her to meet new people and stay busy. Her go-to drink is an oat milk cappuccino with a touch of honey, while Ryan's favorite is a cortado. They both greatly cherish the opportunity to work together as a husband and wife duo, as it allows them to bond while fulfilling their shared entrepreneurial dreams.
Owning a small business brings immense joy, and for Hannah and Ryan, it's all about serving customers, building relationships with kind-hearted individuals, and making connections within their community.
To book Solo Coffee for your next event, their availability is flexible, and they require a minimum of two weeks' notice. You can even secure a booking up to a year in advance. Simply visit their website at https://www.solocoffee.shop/contact and fill out the inquiry form. Hannah will personally reach out to discuss the details and provide you with a customized quote based on timing, location, drink preferences, and the number of guests.
Looking ahead, Hannah and Ryan have big dreams for Solo Coffee. By the end of 2024, they aspire to open their own coffee shop, where they can continue to operate their mobile cart while also serving customers in person. Their journey continues, and they can't wait to bring the Solo Coffee experience to even more individuals in their community.
