Trusted By Australia's Leading Event Organisers

"I can't speak highly enough of the team at Coffee on Cue. Their customer service and sales team are exceptional — so friendly, flexible, and incredibly patient with all my changes and last-minute requests. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and they handled everything with such professionalism and ease.

On the day, the onsite barista was fantastic — efficient, warm, and a hit with our guests. The coffee itself was top-notch, but it was the seamless experience and supportive team that truly stood out.

Highly recommend Coffee on Cue for any event. They really go above and beyond!"
