We have worked with IdeasBox on a handful of events now and can confirm they are the best at what they do. Whether you want hotdogs, crepes or even a cheese trike, they can do it all! They've catered at our events for 1,700+ attendees and the quality is always incredible! Very yummy food. A massive shout out to the team as well, its an absloute pleasure to work with them every time.
We booked the Espresso Stand for a client's event at the Nike Store on Kings Road and everything about it was fantastic. The staff were smart, helpful, on time and super flexible with timings. Basically anything we threw at them they excelled with. The coffees were beautifully made and tasted fantastic. They did absolutely everything so we didn't have to worry about a thing. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a smart, professional and stress free coffee service!
Fantastic business to deal with. We had Rosie out with the sweet cart this week, and she was great with the customers. Very professional and super easy to deal with.
Thanks, we will be booking for the next event for sure!
IdeasBox supported us at a recent event, providing a fantastic service from initial discussion through to event delivery. The team on-site, were communicative, punctual, flexible and very accommodating to our guests. Highly recommend, thank you for your support!
We recently ran an event with Idea Box using their waffle stand and from start to finish the experience was flawless. Highly recommended for corporate hire - big shoutout to Rosie who ran the stand for us for the day, she blended professionalism with top tier customer service with perfection.
We worked with IdeasBox for a digitally branded bar and it exceeded our expectations especially with the quick turnaround. Really accommodating to our deadlines, a great team on site and positive feedback from all who had the pleasure of trying the drinks! Looking forward to working together again in many different capacities.
Always a fab experience with the whole team at Ideas box. This time round we had the pick n mix cart and the coffee cart with bespoke printer which created a real talking point on the day.
We have worked with Harvey, Jane, Nairn and everyone at IdeasBox for many years. Their attention details, quality of product and after-service is second to none. We will only hire our tricycles from these guys...I suggest you do the same.
Ideas Box provided for us a coffee stand for an event and it was the best in the whole venue - not only per my opinion but the attendees' as well 🙂 The baristas were really lovely, friendly and knew what they were doing. We are really pleased with it and glad we went for it.
I am a wedding and event planner and working with Ideas Box always feels like sprinkling magic into an event.
From the moment the conversation begins with Harvey Ward you sense you are in capable hands. Harvey is a gem of a human, warm, inventive, utterly dedicated, and that spirit flows through every idea, every tricycle, every vibrant cart he sends.
Ideas Box bring a kind of fun that is effortless yet unforgettable. Their food and drink tricycles and mobile carts turn service into spectacle. Whether it is a gourmet crepes bike, an ice cream cart or a chic mobile coffee station, they transform even the smallest corner into something alive and joyous.
What sets them apart is how easy they make it for me and my clients. They listen carefully to a brief and then inject their own clever ideas to elevate it. They never overpromise and they always deliver. On event day they arrive bright, confident, and precise. The atmosphere shifts the moment one of their carts rolls in.
Colour, movement, and flavour. Ideas Box bring all three in perfect harmony. In a sea of suppliers that can feel formulaic, Harvey and his team remain refreshingly original. For me, knowing they are part of any event gives peace of mind.
I cannot recommend Ideas Box, and Harvey Ward in particular, highly enough.
We hired a Pick N Mix trike for our launch event and it was excellent and very popular. I would highly recommend using Ideas Box they were very professional.
We used Ideas Box for our large corporate event recently across their Espresso Martini Trike and other products, and they were absolutely amazing! The whole team were beyond lovely to work with both in the lead up and on the day, massively helpful and tailored everything they could to be bespoke to our event. All of the trike products were delicious and sold out on the day! Thank you team.
Jane and the Ideas Box team were absolutely fantastic at our last event. Communication was excellent throughout, and the trikes were a huge hit. They were flexible and accommodating when we needed additional drinks poured on the day, responded quickly to emails, and even helped us make last-minute design changes. A 10/10 experience, I’m really looking forward to working with them again.
I've worked with Harvey and the team on numerous event in recent years and they never fail to deliver. Service is first class, their kit and staff are always on point and they go above and beyond to ensure customers receive an amazing experience. Can't recommend Ideasbox highly enough.
