Lucky Lab Coffee Co. Coffee Food Cart

Lucky Lab Coffee Co. makes an amazing cup of coffee - I've personally had their cardamom infused campfire latte & it took my love of latte to a whole new level! 
We were excited to work with Lucky Lab (not only because we share a fondness for labrador retrievers) because what they were in need of would cause us to grow through the challenge of incorporating many trade skills into the culmination of their newest piece. 

First & foremost, this coffee bar needed to conform to City of Austin Food Cart permitting regulations - the list is quite long, so we'll spare you the details of that particular challenge. 

We would need to 
  • weld a sturdy steel frame with heavy-duty locking casters so that the unit would move freely during the yearly permitting process, while housing specific appliances to their business. The unit also needed to be one piece per City of Austin permitting regulations. Kevin designed a locking system that allowed this 3 piece unit to become a single piece when it needed to be moved. 
  • utilize traditional wood-working skills to craft a piece that looked more like a permanent piece of furniture however since it would need to be moved, the apron/baseboards would need to be removable & this required Kevin to fabricate a design to do just that. 
  • It would need to be plumbed so that the baristas could wash hands/implements & run water to all necessary appliances. 
  • It would need to be electrified to operate all of the appliances. 
  • It needed to be asthetically pleasing, while remaining a very utilitarian build. 


​Fortunately proprietor Courtney Hutton came armed with ideas she'd collected on Pinterest so we had a good idea of what she hoped for. 
​We visited one of her coffee trailer locations just off the drag directly behind Urban Outfitters. That's where I fell in love with that campfire latte & we collaborated on creating the optimal work flow for the baristas on this prototype.

We truly enjoyed working with Lucky Lab Coffee Co. on this project & look forward to future projects with them - along with more lattes! ​

Be sure to pop by Lucky Lab Coffee Co.'s Perry Brooks location at the corner of 8th & Brazos! They're serving up coffee, breakfast tacos, pastries and more!
