Hot Chocolate Catering in Minneapolis & the Twin Cities
I do events for my company, we initially hired them for 1 appreciation event and I have never had so many co-workers compliment and rave about the service and their drinks! So much so, that we decided to have them come every other month for all of last year and we're doing it again this year!!

You absolutely made our wedding an unforgettable event. You were so easy to coordinate with even though our wedding was far outside the cities and delivered amazing coffees and affogatos. Every guest raved about your amazing coffee…

Nathan was an absolutely phenomenal barista at my daughter's grad party. He was great with everyone, but especially great with the little kids. His drinks were creative and so tasty. I was told by family it was worth every penny and made our party a success.

We had Gondolier provide a custom barista offering for an afternoon baby shower attended by 30-35 people at my home. It was perfect and a great hit with our guests. I highly recommend and would definitely use them again!

Natalie Bynum
Corporate Event
Nathan was amazing and worked wonderfully quick, while maintaining an extreme level of quality. Coffee tasted fantastically, even though it was perhaps his 300th+ coffee of the night. The professionalism and quality is unmatched.

Had them on site at a baptism. Solid baristas and a life giving Cappuccino. Their set up was clean, elegant, with modern equipment. Even had a custom scrim to put on top of each drink. Was great!
