How much does cocktail bar hire cost?
Packages start from £1,895 + VAT, depending on guests and hours. See the packages above.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance to ensure availability, especially for peak seasons and popular dates. However, we can often accommodate shorter notice bookings.
Do you serve alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails?
Yes. We always offer a full mocktail menu alongside alcoholic options, so every guest is catered for.
Can we have a signature cocktail created for our event?
Yes. A branded drink in your company colours, a cocktail named after your event, or a twist on a classic.
Do you need a licence to serve alcohol at our event?
If your event is ticketed or alcohol is sold separately, a Temporary Event Notice (TEN) may be required. We'll advise on this during planning.
How much space does a cocktail bar need?
Our compact mobile bars typically need 2–3m of space. We can adapt to most indoor and outdoor venues; send us your venue dimensions and we'll advise.

Yes. All our bartenders are experienced and trained in mixology and the responsible service of alcohol.
What's the minimum booking length?
We typically work in minimum 2-hour blocks for cocktail service, and tailor the package to your event's timings.
