Everything you need to know before you book.
We want you to feel completely confident before we talk. Here are honest answers to the questions we hear most.
We recommend booking at least 3–4 weeks in advance, especially for weekend events. For larger corporate events, conferences, or peak dates (holidays, May/June bridal season), 6–8 weeks is ideal. That said, we do occasionally have last-minute availability — it never hurts to reach out. The earlier you book, the more time we have to plan a truly customized experience for you.
Start by submitting a quote request through our booking form. We'll review your event details and respond within 24 hours with a custom proposal. Once you're happy with the quote, we'll send a contract and invoice for your deposit. Your date is officially held once the signed contract and deposit are received.
Yes. We require a 50% non-refundable deposit to secure your date. The remaining balance is due 14 days before your event. This protects both you and us — once your deposit is received, your date is locked in and we begin planning your custom experience.
We serve all of greater Atlanta and surrounding metro areas — including Buckhead, Midtown, Downtown, Decatur, Dunwoody, Sandy Springs, Alpharetta, Roswell, Marietta, Smyrna, East Cobb, Brookhaven, and beyond. Travel fees may apply for events more than 30 miles from Atlanta. Just include your venue in your inquiry and we'll confirm availability.
Deposits are non-refundable, as they cover the cost of holding your date and the preparation work we do ahead of your event. If you need to reschedule, we'll do our best to accommodate your new date (subject to availability). Cancellations within 14 days of the event forfeit the full payment. We recommend event insurance for peace of mind.
Private event packages start at $695. Corporate events start at $895. Our Monthly Office Coffee Program is $995/month with a 3-month commitment. Pricing varies based on guest count, service duration, location, and any add-ons or customizations. We provide a detailed custom quote after reviewing your event details — no vague estimates.
Every package includes: a trained Tee Coffee Studio barista on-site, commercial-grade espresso equipment, all coffee and supplies, house-made syrups, hot and iced espresso drinks, multiple milk options (dairy and non-dairy), setup and breakdown, and a pre-event consultation. Travel within the greater Atlanta area is included. There are no hidden fees — your quote is your final number.
Our pricing is based on a combination of factors: event type, number of guests, duration of service, and any custom add-ons. We don't charge per drink — once you've booked, your guests drink unlimited specialty beverages during the service window. We'll outline exactly what's included in your custom quote.
Absolutely. We love custom touches. Popular add-ons include: a custom signature drink named for the guest of honor, branded or themed cups, specialty syrups, extended service time, and additional baristas for larger guest counts. Just mention what you're envisioning in your quote request and we'll build it in.
We need: a flat surface with at least a 6x6 foot footprint, access to a standard 120V electrical outlet on a dedicated or reliable circuit, and a clear path to bring in equipment (elevator access if needed for multi-floor venues). We do not require water access — we bring everything pre-supplied. That's it. We'll confirm venue requirements during your pre-event consultation.
Yes to both. For outdoor events, we ask that you have a covered area or tent available to protect the equipment from direct sun or unexpected weather. We'll discuss logistics during our consultation to make sure everything is set up for success.
We arrive a minimum of 2 hours before your event start time to set up, calibrate the equipment, and be fully ready before your first guest arrives. You won't be managing setup logistics — we handle everything so you can focus on hosting.
We use standard 120V outlets in most cases. For outdoor venues without power access, a generator can be arranged — just let us know during your consultation and we'll plan accordingly. Our equipment draws significant power, so we do require a dedicated circuit when possible to ensure uninterrupted service.
Our sweet spot is events under 100 guests — that's where we deliver the level of personalized service we're known for. For events under 50 guests, one barista handles everything beautifully. For events over 50 guests, we bring a second barista to ensure service stays fast and quality never drops. We'll confirm your staffing in your custom quote — that's where we can deliver the level of personalized, high-quality service we're known for. For very large events (100+), we can discuss adding baristas or additional equipment. Our goal is always quality over quantity, so we'll never overbook ourselves in a way that compromises your experience.
Our full espresso bar menu includes: lattes (hot and iced), cappuccinos, americanos, flat whites, mochas, espresso shots, and our signature house drinks made with hand-crafted syrups. We also offer chai tea lattes, matcha lattes, and hot or cold brew tea options. Every package includes a custom drink menu we'll finalize together before your event.
Yes, always. Every package includes a selection of dairy and non-dairy milks. Standard options include whole milk, oat milk, and almond milk. We can also accommodate coconut milk or other options with advance notice. We want every single guest to have a drink they love — no one gets left out.
Yes — and this is one of our most popular add-ons. We'll create a custom specialty drink named for the guest of honor, the company, or the theme of your event. It's a small touch that makes a huge impression. Guests love seeing a drink named "The Sarah" or "The Bloom Latte" on the menu board.
Yes. We always bring quality decaf espresso so guests who are avoiding caffeine — pregnant guests, those sensitive to caffeine, or evening event guests — can still enjoy a full specialty drink experience. Just let us know if decaf will be particularly important for your crowd.
We've got them covered. Our menu always includes non-coffee options like chai tea lattes, matcha lattes, and tea-based drinks. For events with a large number of non-coffee drinkers, we can customize the menu further. Nobody stands at the bar feeling left out on our watch.
Tee is personally at many events, especially smaller and more intimate celebrations. For events where Tee sends a team barista, every team member is trained to the same standard and carries the same care and professionalism. You'll always know in advance who will be at your event. Regardless, Tee is involved in every booking, consultation, and menu planning — she just may be pulling shots at another event when yours is happening.
Yes, and it's one of our favorite parts. Every booked event includes a pre-event consultation — a quick call or exchange where we talk through your vision, finalize the drink menu, confirm logistics, and answer any last-minute questions. This is how we make sure the experience feels custom to you, not like a template.
Yes. Tee Coffee Studio carries full general liability insurance. Many venues require proof of insurance before allowing vendors — we have a certificate of insurance readily available and can add your venue as an additional insured upon request. Just let us know when you book.
Please reach out — we love hearing from people who are thinking about booking. You can send us a message on our Contact page, email teecoffeeatl@gmail.com, or call (770) 873-5954. We respond within 24 hours, usually faster. There are no dumb questions when it comes to planning an event you care about.
Every event is different. Send us the details and we'll answer everything in your custom quote.
Cancellations are not accepted within 30 days of your event date. Your 50% deposit is non-refundable. If you need to reschedule, please contact us as early as possible — we will do our best to accommodate a date change based on availability. Cancellations made more than 30 days before the event will forfeit the deposit but will not be charged the remaining balance.
We arrive 60–90 minutes before your scheduled service start time to set up, calibrate equipment, and be fully ready when your first guest walks in. Please ensure our setup area is accessible and cleared before we arrive. We'll confirm all arrival logistics during your pre-event consultation.
Yes — Tee Coffee Studio loves an outdoor event. To protect the quality of your drinks and the wellbeing of our baristas, outdoor service requires a shaded or covered setup when temperatures exceed 85°F. Service cannot be completed in rain or without adequate shelter. If your outdoor venue does not have shade or a tent, we reserve the right to pause or reschedule service. We always discuss outdoor logistics during your pre-event consultation — no surprises on either side.
No problem — we can bring a generator for a flat fee of $55. Just let us know during booking so we can plan accordingly. All we need is a flat, stable surface and clear access to the setup area.
Tee Coffee Studio offers whole dairy milk and oat milk with every package. We do not carry almond milk. If you have guests with specific dietary needs beyond these options, please reach out in advance and we will do our best to accommodate.
Decaf is not included in our standard packages but can be added with advance notice for an additional charge. We also offer several caffeine-free options including chai tea, hot chocolate, and select specialty drinks — no advance notice needed for those. Just let your guests know to ask.
Yes — please notify us as soon as possible if your venue has stairs, narrow doorways, uneven ground, or any access challenges that would prevent a wheeled cart from entering smoothly. We want to make sure setup is seamless and that our equipment arrives safely. All venue logistics are covered during your pre-event consultation.
Private event packages are designed for up to 50 guests. Events over 50 guests require a different pricing structure. Corporate events and large gatherings are quoted individually based on guest count, duration, and service needs. Contact us for a custom quote and we'll build the right package for your event.
Additional service time beyond your package is available at $125 per hour. This must be arranged in advance — we cannot guarantee availability for on-the-day extensions. If you think your event may run long, add the extra hour when you book.
