Our Story.

How a Birthday Sparked a Passion for Coffee Catering

We’re often asked how Pretty Good Coffee Company came to be, and the answer? It all started with a birthday. Years ago, Sam gifted Hannah a used home espresso machine for her birthday. The funny thing? Sam quickly realized he enjoyed crafting espresso and coffee drinks even more than Hannah. He dove headfirst into this new hobby, perfecting his technique (and making plenty of lattes for Hannah along the way). Fast forward to today, what began as a thoughtful gift blossomed into a passion for sharing high-quality coffee at workplaces, weddings, and special events across Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill. Now, with a team of skilled baristas, we’re here to bring luxury coffee experiences to your next event.

our values.

We’re the Chick-fil-A of Coffee

Personable. Ultra-fast. Delicious. Coffee is what we do, but exceptional service is our pleasure.

People First

Every cup of coffee serves someone’s story—whether it’s a good day, tough day, or somewhere in between. We take care of people through coffee, not the other way around.

Over Deliver, Every Time

We don’t cut corners and we don’t settle. Whether it is a wedding, corporate gathering, brand activation, or party, you can trust us to deliver luxury. 

Swift Service

We prioritize speed and efficiency to ensure every guest is served quickly and with excellence, no matter how large the crowd. Our average wait time from ordering to sipping is 90 seconds and we like it that way. 

What Sets Us Apart.

Commercial Equipments

We use top-tier commercial gear from brands like La Marzocco, Mahlkonig, and Wilbur Curtis, ensuring premium drinks and fast service. We love delivering consistent luxury quality for local and national clients week after week.

Scratch-made Syrups

Our syrups are made from scratch using high-quality sugars and natural ingredients, ensuring luxury coffee catering with the best flavors for your lattes and cappuccinos, freshly crafted for your event.

Custom Menus

No event is the same, so your menu shouldn’t be either! We love crafting specialty menus customized to your event.

Healthy Cups

Our hot cups are made without adding PFAS chemicals, and our ice cups are BPA Free, made with PET Plastic

Local Coffee

We showcase Black and White Roasters Coffee, a local and international coffee roastery favorite!

Specialty Water

Because coffee is 90% water, we make sure our water meets or exceeds the Speciality Coffee Association's standards. Our water is a specialty blend of minerals that enhance coffee taste, something that even local cafés can’t sustainably offer.

Our Team

Our team is the heart of Pretty Good Coffee Company. We’re baristas, event professionals, and coffee enthusiasts committed to great service and unforgettable experiences, one cup at a time.
