How Mobile Bar Hire Works

1.

Consultation & Quote

Contact us by phone, email, or the online booking form. Tell us your event date, guest count, venue, and preferred package. We provide a detailed quote within 24 hours. Book at least 6–8 weeks before your event to secure your preferred date.

2.

Menu Design & Planning

Our team designs a bespoke cocktail menu based on your preferences. We discuss drink selections, dietary requirements, and any signature cocktails. You receive a finalised menu and event plan two weeks before the date. A 25% deposit confirms your booking.

Setup & Service

Our team arrives 60–90 minutes before your event start time. We set up the bar, stock the fridges, prepare garnishes, and brief the staff. Service runs for the agreed duration — typically 4–6 hours. Our bartenders serve drinks, manage stock levels, and keep the bar area clean throughout.

Cleanup & Collection

After last orders, we handle full cleanup. We pack down the bar, remove all equipment, and dispose of waste. Your venue is left in the same condition as before setup. Collection happens the same night or the following morning depending on venue access.

What Clients Say About Us

Frequently Asked Questions

What areas of London do you cover?

We cover all London boroughs across Central, North, South, East, and West London. We also serve Berkshire and surrounding counties including Surrey, Essex, Hampshire, and Hertfordshire. Travel is included within the M25. Events outside the M25 carry a small transport supplement.

How much does mobile bar hire cost in London?

We offer three transparent pricing structures tailored to your event type.

1. Paid Bar (All-Inclusive - Best Value) This is our most popular option for weddings and corporate events where you want to treat your guests.

  • Unlimited Cocktails & Drinks: £7.50 per person, per hour.

  • Unlimited Drinks (excluding Cocktails): £6.50 per person, per hour.

  • Note: These packages require a minimum of 100 guests and a minimum 4-hour service. (Minimum booking value: £2,600 - £3,000).

2. Cash Bar (Guests Pay) Ideal for large gatherings, festivals, or charity events. Guests purchase their own drinks via cash or card.

  • Booking Fee: £500 (This is waived if you have over 200 guests).

  • Minimum Spend: We require a minimum revenue guarantee of £1,500. (If sales fall short, you simply cover the difference).

  • Glassware: A flat £250 fee covers all glassware hire, breakage, and a dedicated crew member to collect and wash glasses throughout the event.

3. Dry Hire (Service & Equipment Only) If you prefer to supply your own alcohol, you can hire our infrastructure and team.

  • Staffing: £50.00 per hour, per bartender (plus travel).

  • Bar Structure Hire: £500 for a small bar or £750 for a large bar.

  • Recommendation: For most events, our Paid Bar packages usually offer better value and less hassle than sourcing your own stock.

What is included in a mobile bar hire package?

We bring the full experience. Every booking includes the mobile bar structure (Rustic, LED, or Vintage), professional mixologists, premium glassware, ice, garnishes, and full insurance. We also handle the Temporary Event Notice (TEN) licensing required for London venues. See full details →

Can we supply our own alcohol?

Absolutely! Our dry hire option is perfect if you want to source your own drinks. We simply charge for the bar structure and staffing hours, ensuring your guests still get a professional service.

How far in advance should I book a mobile bar?

Book your mobile bar at least 6–8 weeks before your event. Peak season dates (June–September and December) often book 3–4 months ahead. Wedding bookings for popular summer Saturdays fill 6–12 months in advance.

The booking process follows 4 steps:

  1. Enquiry: Contact us for a quote within 24 hours.
  2. Planning: We design your menu and handle venue logistics.
  3. Deposit: A 25% deposit secures your date.
  4. Event Day: We arrive 60–90 minutes early to set up.

Check availability for your date now.

What are the requirements for the venue?

We are very flexible.

  • Power: We typically need 1-2 standard 13-amp sockets.

  • Water: We don't need running water at the bar (we bring our own).

  • Outdoor: For parks or garden parties, we require a shelter (gazebo/marquee) and flat ground.

  • Note: We are approved vendors for many unique locations. Contact us for more information.

 

What is the difference between Cash Bar and Paid Bar?

  • Cash Bar: Your guests purchase their own drinks by card or cash. This is popular for larger events. There is a £500 booking fee (which we waive if you have over 200 guests) and a minimum spend guarantee of £1,500. If bar sales don't reach this amount, you simply pay the difference.

  • Paid Bar: You cover the cost, providing a generous "open bar" experience for your guests. You pay a set hourly rate—£6.50 per person (excluding cocktails) or £7.50 per person (including cocktails). This creates a seamless flow for weddings and corporate events and applies to bookings with a minimum of 100 guests for 4 hours.

Do you provide glassware?

Yes, we provide full commercial-grade glassware (flutes, coupes, highballs, etc.).

  • For Paid Bars: Glassware is included in your package price at no extra cost.

  • For Cash Bars: There is a flat £250 charge. This covers breakage and, crucially, pays for an additional dedicated crew member whose sole job is to collect and wash glasses throughout the event, ensuring your venue remains tidy.

Do you offer non-alcoholic and mocktail options?

Our mocktail bar hire service provides a full range of non-alcoholic cocktails crafted with the same care as our alcoholic drinks. Mocktail menus include alcohol-free espresso martinis, virgin mojitos, and fruit-based spritzers. Every package includes soft drinks and water as standard. Fully alcohol-free bar hire is available for corporate wellness events and family celebrations.

What is your cancellation policy?

We know plans change.

90+ days notice: Full refund minus £200 admin fee.

60-90 days: 50% refund.

Under 60 days: Non-refundable, but we are happy to reschedule your date where possible.

What payment methods do you accept and when is payment due?

We accept bank transfer (BACS - our preferred method), credit/debit cards, and for corporate clients, account billing with net-30 terms.

Payment timeline: 25-30% deposit at booking to secure your date. For paid bars, remaining balance due 7 days before your event. For cash bars, payment settled immediately after based on actual consumption.

For cash bars with £1,500 minimum: if sales exceeded this, you pay only booking fee (waived for 200+ guests) plus £250 glassware. If sales fell short, you pay the difference plus fees. We provide complete sales reports showing all transactions.

No hidden charges or surprises - completely transparent from quote through final invoice.
