Side By Side Coffee mobile espresso bar at a Cape Elizabeth Maine coastal event

Cape Elizabeth is unlike anywhere else in Southern Maine. The coastline, the Fort Williams area, the private homes and estates overlooking Casco Bay — events here have a character that most venues elsewhere can't match. Side By Side Coffee is built for exactly this kind of event.

We bring a fully self-contained mobile espresso bar to coastal weddings in Maine, private estate celebrations, rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, and intimate milestone events across Cape Elizabeth. Specialty coffee from Tandem Coffee Roasters — a Portland-based roaster with national recognition for sourcing and craft. Kenny grew up in this coffee culture. He brings the same level of care to a 30-person rehearsal dinner in Cape Elizabeth as he does to a 200-person wedding reception.

One 110V outlet. A few square feet. We arrive early and handle everything from setup to breakdown.

The Espresso Menu

Every Cape Elizabeth package includes our full espresso menu — lattes, cappuccinos, americanos, cortados, cold brew, matcha, hot chocolate, and herbal teas. Whole milk and oat milk on every drink. Decaf always available. For weddings and estate events, we love building a custom signature drink that fits the setting, the season, and the couple or host.

Wedding Client, Cape Elizabeth, ME

"We had Side By Side at a rehearsal dinner at a private home overlooking the ocean in Cape Elizabeth. The cortados were the best I've ever had outside a proper café. Will absolutely hire again."
