A huge well done to all of the team that organised another fantastic Lustleigh Show. It was even better than last year.

We served, non-stop from 9:30am until just after 5pm.

And massive praise goes to the Show announcer and commentator, David Wills (I think that's his name). The amount of people that came to our van and spoke of his wonderful humour and Devon Accent was numerous. Well done David, you put smiles on many faces.

Becs is on a mission to buy a well deserved bottle of wine for us to enjoy.

We HOPE to be part of Lustleigh Show 2025 🙏

See you there 👍

Today was suppose to be our final day of serving in Bishopsteignton, but John has had a night of no sleep and the weather report for the most part of serving time is not great. Based on our previous attempts at serving in the mildest of drizzle there, we don't think it's worth setting up.

We take this time to say a huge thank you to all of the folk in the village that supported us in the year that we were there. We had a band of regular, loyal supporters, but sadly it is not enough to warrant us continuing there from a financial point of view.

Take care folks and enjoy the rest of the summer.

God bless

Hi Bishopsteignton!

We will be serving at the Lawns tomorrow 9am - 2pm.

Next week will be the last week we will be serving in the village. It has not got going there at all this year and from a financial & business point of view it is not worth us being there.

Many thanks to all that have frequented the van, it's been a pleasure to serve and chat with you all 👍

So, Thursday 22nd will be the last day of serving there.

Many blessings

We are looking forward to returning to Trago Mills this Sunday for another Classic Car Show.

The weather reports this time are looking very good compared to the last one we did. The weather killed it as it's been doing for many days of trading so far this year.

So, if you like your cars and you like a coffee & homemade treat then we'll see you at the large carpark at the rear area of Trago Mills this Sunday 👍😁

25/07/2024

White Chocolate & Raspberry Shmoo!

Come get yours 😋

I'd be lying if I said we're glad to be back in the UK.

Our Tenerife holibobs was an awesome one. 30+ degrees of sunshine and blue skies, amazing food at cheap prices, roads that weren't full of angry drivers and potholed and lot's of adventures!

But, the holiday mode cannot last forever and so we are getting ready to fire up the Hope Coffee Van and hopefully have some form of summer weather to look forward to this year.

We begin with a gentle easing in at the always radiant, Oakmoor Touring Park tomorrow morn.

Then on Sunday we will be serving at 'Chudfest Fete' in the town of Chudleigh.

24/06/2024

Highly recommend Mark Jake's of 'Your Key'.

We've just had him out to sort out a new Remote Key for our coffee van. 1st class service, priced charged is the price quoted and a really nice chap to deal with too, very polite and professional.

23/06/2024

This morning's service at Oakmoor Touring Park was the last before we leave blighty for a sunnier climate next week.

We return to the UK on the 4th July. We then prepare for serving at 'Chudfest fete' in Chudleigh on Sunday 7th July.

See you all soon 👋

22/06/2024

A huge well done to Jess & team for putting on a brilliant Fete.

In all my years of living in Devon I've never been to Broadhempston before. Tis a lovely village, the people super friendly and the fete a credit to all involved.

Thank you to all that turned out to our van. The comments about our coffee were top draw and the comments about Becs & I as a team on the van was really heart warming too.

And, the Shmoo Milkshakes continue to be a huge hit. They flew out! 👍

If I didn't have to drive home I would of stayed for the evening entertainment and had a few cheeky beverages. The band sounded brilliant!

21/06/2024

What a truly beautiful day we have had, serving some beautiful people at a beautiful house in a beautiful part of Devon in beautiful weather. Never have we been to a house that has it's own train track with steam train.

And what a beautiful cause to raise money for, the awesome Vranch House School and Centre of which we have been honoured to be part of during our three years of being in business.

A huge WELL DONE and thank you to John & his wife Margi for inviting us to their beautiful home and a huge WELL DONE to everyone involved in putting on a truly magnificent event to raise money for a truly worthy cause.

We were told it would be busy but we didn't expect to be as busy as we were. Many thanks to all that gave great feedback on our drinks and cakes. And, the Shmoo Milkshakes were a winner!!! 👍

We look forward to being part of the event next year 😃.

Oh and thank you to the little lad that gave me (John) a boxed gift of a yummy cupcake 😋
