Better together

Gelato meets espresso

Two local carts, one dessert bar your guests will talk about. Jesse's Gelato of Villa Park scoops fresh gelato from their striped cart while we pull the shots beside them.

Then we pour hot espresso straight over a scoop of their gelato. That is affogato, and when we work an event together it is on the menu while both carts are serving.

  • Fresh gelato, your choice of flavors and toppings
  • Espresso hot and iced, plus specialty drinks
  • Affogato made to order while both carts are serving
  • Two crews, one plan

Two ways to have both

Espresso bar prices are ours, plus tax. Jesse's Gelato quotes their own packages, service times and guest counts, and books on their own calendar. Tell us you would like gelato and we will introduce you.

Event sample bags

Give every guest a 4oz bag of the coffee they just drank, roasted fresh for your date. Each bag carries a card written for your event and a sticker with your name, logo or date on it.

Our bags are packed by students in a local adult transition program, who learn real job skills with every one. The card tells their story, so the favor means a little more than most.

Order sample bags at least three weeks before your event so we can print your cards and stickers.

Why Spiritus

A roaster behind the bar

We roast it ourselves

Most coffee carts buy their beans. We roast ours in Lombard the week of your event and dial it in on site.

Affogato, standard

Gelato and espresso belong together. If gelato or ice cream is being served, affogato is on the menu at no extra charge.

Nitro included

The Large package pours nitro cold brew on tap. Elsewhere it is usually a separate keg and a separate bill.

A favor with your name on it

Custom 4oz sample bags with your event card and sticker, so guests take the morning after home with them.

One flat price

Guests drink as much as the time allows. No tabs, no per cup counts, no travel surprises nearby.

Coffee with a purpose

Every bag is packed by students in a local adult transition program, and every event helps keep them working.

For venues, caterers and dessert carts

Add an espresso bar to your events

Two ways to work with us. Pick up espresso by the box and pour affogato yourself, or add our espresso bar to your packages and we show up, run the bar and leave the space clean. Either way you keep the client relationship.

1

Choose your setup

Shots by the box for affogato, or a full espresso bar from 90 minutes.

2

Collect your deposit

Book the bar with your package and take your client's deposit as usual.

3

Pay us after

Pay our partner rate after your client pays you, any time before the event.

Good to know

What we need from you

  • One standard 20 amp outlet within 25 feet
  • A 6 to 8 foot space for the bar
  • About 45 minutes to set up before guests arrive
  • Load in access by door, dock or elevator
How many drinks can one bar make?

About 50 to 60 drinks an hour, made to order. That covers each package's guest count well, with a short line in the first rush.

Do you need water or plumbing?

No. We bring our own water. A sink or drain nearby for rinse water helps but is not required.

Where do you travel?

Chicago and the western suburbs. Travel within 30 miles of Lombard is included; farther events get a travel line on the quote.

Can we add gelato?

Often, yes. Jesse's Gelato of Villa Park is our preferred gelato partner. They quote their own packages and book on their own calendar, so it depends on your date. Tell us you are interested and we will introduce you.

Do you serve alcohol?

No. We serve espresso drinks, nitro cold brew, affogato and hot chocolate, which is included with every package. We are glad to hand espresso to your venue's licensed bar staff for cocktails.

How do I book?

Send the form below. We reply within one business day with a quote. A 50% deposit holds your date, and the balance is due 7 days before the event.

Can we just get espresso for affogato?

Yes. Espresso by the box is 50 fresh shots in a kraft coffee box for $100, picked up in Lombard. It is pulled the hour you pick it up and is best poured within an hour, over gelato or ice cream.

Can we have more guests or more time?

Yes. Add 30 minute blocks, or ask us about a second bar for larger crowds.
