Knoxville’s caffeine scene just leveled up. The Rush Coffee, a mobile coffee truck run by husband-and-wife team Claire and Parsegh Oksayan, has rolled into town this week, pouring espresso blends, specialty drinks and pastries at local events and private gigs across the city.

The Rush’s Knoxville Debut

According to WATE, reporter Noemy Sanchez caught up with the Oksayans on their visit to Knoxville and sampled one of their drinks. The couple told the station they like to call what they serve “happiness in a cup.” The segment notes that the truck features espresso blends and specialty creations and that the business is available for bookings at community events.

From San Diego To East Tennessee

The Rush Coffee started as a mobile operation in the San Diego area and eventually expanded into multiple trucks, a growth story profiled by Times of San Diego. The Knoxville presence is also listed on Eventeny, where Claire Oksayan is named as the local team member handling bookings.

Menu, Booking And Contact

The Rush Coffee lists a menu that includes made-to-order coffee drinks, frappes, smoothies and Italian sodas, and notes that its trucks can serve groups ranging from 20 up to 2,000 people for catered events. The Knoxville page features a local contact number, (865) 606-0186, and directs customers to the brand’s booking form.

Where You’ll See Them

Food trucks and mobile vendors are already a familiar sight at Knoxville gatherings, and events like Zoo Knoxville regularly showcase local food and beverage options. The Rush Coffee’s arrival adds another caffeinated choice for organizers planning spring festivals, neighborhood markets and office catering.
