From the first cup of breakfast coffee to the last celebratory cocktail, Hauchi Kay plans and manages every beverage touchpoint: coffee breaks, juice bars, smoothie stations, mocktails and full cocktail catering with mobile bar services.
What Is Beverage Catering?
When people plan an event, the food usually gets all the attention. Ask anyone who has sat through a poorly hydrated wedding, a coffee-less corporate seminar, or a party with a warm, understaffed bar, and they will tell you that the drinks make or break the experience. Beverage catering is the professional planning, sourcing, preparation, presentation and service of drinks at an event, far beyond simply providing drinks.
Hot beverages
Coffee break catering and tea break catering with trained attendants and a tidy station all day.
Cold & specialty
Fresh juice stations, smoothie bars and mocktail catering that still feel celebratory.
Full bar service
Cocktail catering, cocktail bar catering and mobile bar services, plus staffing, glassware and quantity planning.
Beverage Catering for Events in Kenya
Guests expect more than a jug of water and a flask of tea: fresh juices on arrival, a working coffee station during breaks, and a well-stocked bar in the evening. Hauchi Kay treats beverages as their own catering discipline, not an afterthought tacked onto a food menu.
A proper drinks experience
A well-run drinks station keeps guests comfortable, sociable and engaged. A badly managed one, running out of cups, warm juice, slow bar service becomes the one thing people remember.
Drinks catering Nairobi trusts
From a single office event to mobile beverage catering for a large outdoor celebration, we plan the beverage side with the same seriousness most planners reserve for the food menu.
Corporate, Wedding, Private and Conference Beverage Catering
Kenya’s event calendar is busy all year: weddings, corporate off-sites, product launches, conferences, church functions and private parties across Nairobi and beyond.
Wedding beverage catering
Welcome drinks, tea and coffee, juice or smoothie stations, mocktails, and evening cocktail catering with a mobile bar matched to the wedding theme.
Corporate beverage catering
Office coffee and tea breaks, AGMs, training, product launch juice and mocktail stations, and end-of-year cocktail bar catering.
Private party beverage catering
Juice or smoothie bars, mocktail bars, or a mobile cocktail bar scaled to guest count so you never pay for more than the event needs.
Conference beverage catering
Registration coffee, scheduled tea and coffee breaks, juice stations, and evening cocktail or mocktail networking receptions on agenda.
Coffee break catering
The most commonly booked offering for offices, seminars, churches and morning meetings, with attendants restocking throughout the day.
Tea break catering
Black tea, traditional milk tea (chai) and herbal options as part of the same well-stocked hot beverage station.
Beverage Stations, Staffing and Equipment
A well-designed beverage station is about flow, presentation and staffing, not only the drink itself.
Placement
Stations positioned to avoid bottlenecks and match guest traffic patterns.
Presentation
Dispensers, glassware, garnishes and signage that match your event’s theme.
Variety
Hot, cold, alcoholic and non-alcoholic options side by side where appropriate.
Replenishment
A clear restocking schedule so stations never run empty or look untidy.

How pricing works
Beverage catering prices depend on guest count, event duration, choice of stations, staffing, glassware and equipment, and venue location. Because every event is different, we recommend a customised quote rather than a fixed price list.
