    Will you be selling just coffee or will you do other drinks and snacks too?

    I do locally sourced produce where I can, Coffee from DJ miles, along with teas, Smoothies, Frappes, Tarka water, Oasis cold drinks, soft drinks and some energy drinks for those monday mornings. Pastries, muffins and off course Byron Bay cookies. I want It to be an interactive experience so if demand is there I will stock it:)

    Hi Sandy,

    I will be taking care of all the local businesses from large to small, in Bideford and Barnstaple. I will have a flexible round and linked in on facebook and twitter so you know where I am. If you have that caffeine need you can just message,call or tweet me and I'll stop outside as I pass by and take your order, ground and made on your doorstep. I will also be doing events, surf comps large and small. Just booked for a large VW event this summer:))

    Ivornigbob is right - it's a great idea and especially if you are using local produce where you can. If you ever branch out, I have an old camper who needs to start paying her way ;) Do you get to Clovelly and Hartland too?

    Hey Susanya,

    I will keep that in mind, VW's have so many lives with different owners I think that's the attraction. Met some good people in the last 2 days and hope to keep building on that. I have had some good feedback on the quality. with so many people surprised with the value for money, see me at Instow most afternoons:)

    Susanya,

    I have a sample menu my website but can make pretty much anything you want. I use a blended ban from Africa, Indonesia and Central America. I have had to move from Instow as a local councillor made It blatantly clear competition wasn't welcome today. So keep posted to twitter for the location of the best Espresso this side of the river.

    Hello VolksCafe - am looking forward to my first 'VW Coffee....if you know in advance where you are likely to be, why not post the details here each morning? Not everyone uses Twitter and it might help spread the word about your mobile coffee van....just a thought.

    Are you still doing the rounds or has the rain wrecked the business plan? If you are still soldiering on, let us know where you'll be and when
