What looks like a tiny firetruck rolling around in Denver is actually a mobile coffee shop called Wee Woo Coffee.
To see Week Woo Coffee truck in action, check out my Instagram reel!
Owner Jack Brownson fell in love with Japanese kei trucks years ago while staying with a friend outside Olympia, WA. Known for their compact size and fuel efficiency, his friend used their kei truck for odd jobs around the farm. Since 2023, Brownson had been developing the Wee Woo concept, and this May he brought his dream to life by hitting the road with his café on wheels.
From the small setup, Wee Woo serves matcha & chai, and cappuccinos & lattes using a bright, chocolatey blend from Colombia, Brazil, and Mexico made for them by Little Owl Coffee. For autumn, they’ve added house-made syrups for seasonal drinks like pumpkin spice and apple crisp.
You can find Brownson and his partner Maria at the truck every Sunday during the season at Lafayette Farmers Market and at events and holiday markets across Denver. The Wee Woo Instagram account lists all pop-up dates and locations.
When not behind the wheel at Wee Woo, Brownson’s day job is helping develop the coffee program at Dayshift, the café concept at the newly opened Englewood location of Dana Rodriguez’s restaurant, Work and Class.
As for now, he’s learned a lot from his first summer season and hopes to return even stronger next year, with the eventual goal being to open a brick-and-mortar location or expand to a second, slightly different truck.
