Garden party bar hire in London starts from £900 all-inclusive for up to 40 guests. The Sesh Bars bring a fully equipped outdoor mobile bar to your garden — Pimm's jugs, spritz cocktails, prosecco, and bespoke serves, set up on grass, gravel, patio, or decking by licensed bartenders. We cover gardens across all London boroughs plus Surrey, Hertfordshire, and Berkshire inside the M25.
Every garden party booking includes a portable mobile bar hire unit suitable for outdoor surfaces, a licensed bartender, a bespoke drinks menu, quality glassware, ice, and full setup and strike. Drink quantities are calculated per head so you never run short mid-afternoon. We arrive 60 minutes before your first guest to build and stock the bar.
All-inclusive packages cover spirits, mixers, garnishes, soft drinks, and a non-alcoholic cocktail option — so every guest has something worth raising. Dry hire is available from £350 if you're supplying the drinks yourself. Public liability insurance and personal alcohol licences are included on every booking.
Garden parties call for light, refreshing serves that hold up in warm weather without demanding a full cocktail bar setup. Our most popular outdoor menu combines Pimm's Cup, Aperol Spritz, Elderflower Gin Fizz, Mojito, and a chilled Rosé Sangria. Prosecco and sparkling water on arrival round out the welcome. We build the menu around your event time — afternoon parties lean lighter; evening garden parties can take something with more weight.
Non-alcoholic cocktails are included as standard: alcohol-free Spritz, Virgin Mojito, and an elderflower and cucumber cooler cover every guest. See our full cocktail menu for the complete drinks list and seasonal options.

Our team arrives 60 minutes before your first guest. For garden setups, we need vehicle access to within 30 metres of the bar position — driveways, side gates, or rear access are all fine. We carry all equipment by hand if needed, but closer access means faster build. Power is via a standard 13A UK plug socket — an extension lead to the nearest outdoor or indoor socket is all we need.
For gardens without mains power access, we supply a silent generator at an additional cost. We bring weighted parasol covers for sun protection where there's no marquee. Our bar unit is fully weatherproof on the service side, but we recommend a 3m x 3m gazebo minimum if rain is forecast — we can advise on suppliers when you book.
London has excellent outdoor spaces for garden parties with bar hire. Private gardens in Richmond, Hampstead, Dulwich, and Chiswick are our most-booked residential locations — they offer the space and access that makes setup straightforward. Communal gardens in mansion blocks across Kensington, Notting Hill, and Maida Vale also work well with prior management approval.
For hired garden venues, we regularly serve at Fulham Palace gardens, The Roof Gardens Kensington, Cannizaro House in Wimbledon, Morden Hall Park, and various National Trust properties across South London and Surrey. Rooftop terraces in Shoreditch, Bermondsey, and the South Bank also count as outdoor setups and follow the same pricing structure.
Planning a house party that might spill into the garden? Our compact bar unit can be positioned at a patio door to serve both indoor and outdoor guests. For a dedicated outdoor birthday celebration, see our birthday party bar hire page. Garden venues are also popular for wedding bar hire — marquee receptions in particular.
