Strada Coffee Machine

This is the conversion to pull in customers at busy events. With a curved construction based on the 1950s American caravan, our American Style Trailer is a head turner and a conversation piece that will bring people over to buy your coffee.

There’s also plenty of internal space for coffee-making equipment and your team. This trailer is perfect for serving up high volumes of hot drinks at festivals, big outdoor events and areas with high footfall rates.

Exclusive to The Big Coffee, all of our American Style Trailer conversions are covered by a comprehensive 3 year warranty.

We had the most amazing day yesterday collecting our new Brew Van. Firstly the van looks incredible and the finish is brilliant. The training and handover was brilliant. Nothing was a problem and any question was answered. Absolutely worth the 6 hour round journey to collect the van. Been brilliant to work in partnership with the Big Coffee team on this venture. Thank you

A fantastic company to do business with. I did a lot of research before ordering my cart and The Big Coffee kept coming up tops. For a reason, they are. Extremely professional, build quality of the very highest standard and a team of friendly people who understand what the goal is and bend over backwards to help. My cart is turning heads and I only have it home. The training they offer is a great experience and well worth it. I will continue to sing their praises and if you want to enter this market then these are the people to help you.

We had our amazing new trailer delivered today by the fantastic team at The Big Coffee, and we couldn’t be happier! Joe was absolutely brilliant — he took the time to walk us through the whole process, explained everything clearly, and answered every question we had with patience and professionalism.

The training was excellent and really gave us confidence in getting started. It’s clear that The Big Coffee truly cares about their customers and takes pride in what they do. We’d highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality setup and outstanding service.
A BIG Thank you to the entire team at The Big Coffee!

The process, from start to finish was managed very well by all involved. All my questions were answered swiftly and they helped with everything asked.

The quality of the trailer is outstanding and it looks even better than anticipated.

Thanks for turning my dream into reality and for doing it with friendly and helpful hearts.

Working with the team at The Big Coffee has been a fantastic experience. From the very first engagement, to the planning, the build of our horse box, the delivery and after-service the company stands out for their dedication to quality and excellent customer service. We receive frequent very positive comments about the quality, craft and skill that has gone into building the horse box. If we should ever expand and require a further conversion, I would choose the company without any hesitation and can full heartedly endorse and recommend them. Thank you from the team at The Old Mill in Lower Slaughter!

Absolutely thrilled with the work The Big Coffee did on our coffee trailer! From start to finish, their team was incredibly helpful, guiding us through every detail with expertise and care. They went above and beyond to make sure our vision became a reality, taking our ideas and elevating them in ways we hadn’t imagined. Claire kept us updated on the project every step of the way, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. And on handover day, Joe was fantastic—walking us through everything and ensuring we felt confident and ready. The quality of their craftsmanship is outstanding, and it’s clear they put thought and heart into every part of the build. We now have a beautiful, functional trailer that’s already a huge hit with our customers, and we owe it all to The Big Coffee team. Thank you for making our dream come to life!

After lots of research we chose The Big Coffee to build our pod. We were given a 6 month lead time which was accurate.
We were introduced to a company with whom we collaborated on our logo signage and although this was remotely we found it worked well and we’re delighted with the results.
Aftercare has been fantastic. We had a few snags but they were helpful and went above and beyond to resolve them.
Communication has been excellent. We sometimes seek advice and it’s given willingly. Claire is our point of contact and she’s fabulous to deal with.
Our only issue has been the paintwork becoming badly chipped whilst towing (despite using mudguards). A caravan protector doesn’t fit the pod and the cost of respray seems excessive through the original sprayer used when the pod was built.
Our customers regularly comment very positively on the appearance of the pod and overall we’re delighted with it.

The Big Coffee has been great from my first foot through the door, right up-to collecting my Pod. Claire was particularly helpful with any information that I needed, no question was too silly or too small. I had my training day with Joe, which was made fun even though there was a lot of information to take in. He obviously did a good job because 3 days later was our first event which was a huge success. Highly recommend. Thanks guys! 😃

Bought a Piaggio Ape 50 from The Big Coffee this year for my business Hips Social. Really impressed with the service from start to finish. The team were really informative in the sales process and communication throughout the build was great. The quality of the build and final product is also spot on. Thanks guys!

What a great experience! These guys really know how to deliver exceptional service. We have been working together to design and build our custom coffee pod for Small Batch here in Brighton. Both Claire and Russ have been wonderful throughout the whole process. The pod looks fantastic and Russ trained us on all the necessary workings to allow us trade in confidence. Thanks for a wonderful day. All the best SBC.

Big thank you to the team at The Big Coffee, even through these difficult COVID-19 times we've just received our Piaggio Ape 400, the vehicle itself oozes quality at every angle. The Big Coffee has answered all the questions and they've supplied us with something I'm sure will change the quality of our working life's forever. The adventure has only just began but we know the team at Big Coffee will be there for our every success moving forwards.
