Mobile cocktail bar hire, built around your menu.
Signature serves designed with you, fresh citrus, house syrups and bartenders who can hold a queue and a conversation at the same time.
Two or three serves that belong to your event
Mobile cocktail bar hire should mean more than a printed list of classics. We start with what you actually drink, then design two or three signature serves around it — named for you, styled to your palette, and batched so they're as good for guest 200 as for guest one.
Classics stay on the list, the wine and beer selection sits behind them, and the alcohol-free serves get the same amount of thought. Everything is poured from our restored horsebox — the heart of our mobile bar hire.
What goes into the glass
- Fresh citrus pressed on the day
- House-made syrups, cordials and shrubs
- Clear ice and real garnish
- Small-batch and independent spirits
- Considered alcohol-free and low-ABV serves
- Bespoke menu cards and bar signage
Masterclasses, welcome drinks and full service
Book the bar for the full evening, for a welcome-drinks window only, or add a hosted cocktail masterclass for a smaller group earlier in the day. Weddings usually pair a welcome serve with a full evening bar — see wedding bar hire — while corporate clients often want a branded signature serve on arrival.
Wedding cocktail bar hire
A wedding cocktail bar works best with a story. Most couples choose a his-and-hers pair of signature cocktails — one each, named after you — alongside a welcome cocktail for when guests leave the ceremony. We pre-batch the signatures so the bar keeps moving through the drinks reception, then open up the full menu for the evening.

Gin bar hire
If your guests are more G&T than espresso martini, hire a gin bar instead. We put together a curated gin selection — a classic London dry alongside a few more characterful bottles — with a choice of tonics and fresh garnishes to match each one.
- A curated gin selection chosen with you
- Light, aromatic and premium tonics
- Fresh garnishes: citrus, herbs and botanicals
- A short printed G&T menu with pairings
Gin bar hire works as a drinks-reception feature or as the whole evening bar, and can sit alongside cocktails if you'd like both.
Why a horsebox, not a cocktail van
A mobile cocktail van can be handy on a street, but at a wedding or garden party it tends to look like catering. Our horsebox is a restored Rice trailer with reclaimed timber, a proper back bar and warm amber lighting — it reads as part of the event, not a vehicle parked next to it. It's also self-sufficient, with its own running water, so it suits fields and lawns a van can't easily reach.

Cocktail bar hire FAQs
How many cocktails can you serve an hour?
A two-bartender setup comfortably serves 120–150 cocktails an hour once the batching is right. For larger guest counts we scale the team and pre-batch the signature serves so quality and speed both hold up.
Can we design our own cocktails?
Yes — bespoke menus are the norm. We'll build two or three signature serves around your story, palette or brand, name them with you and design the menu cards to match.
Do you offer a cocktail masterclass?
We do. A hosted masterclass for a small group before the main service is a popular addition for hen parties, corporate away days and milestone birthdays.
Do you do alcohol-free cocktails?
Every menu includes proper alcohol-free serves built from the same base spirits alternatives, syrups and fresh citrus — not a soft drink in a fancy glass.
Do you use fresh ingredients?
Fresh citrus, house syrups, real garnish and clear ice as standard. Anything that can be batched without losing quality is batched; anything that can't is built to order.
Can you run a gin bar at our wedding?
Yes. We can run a dedicated gin bar for the drinks reception or the whole evening, with a curated gin selection, a choice of tonics and fresh garnishes, and a short G&T menu designed with you.
Do you offer a wedding cocktail bar with signature drinks?
Yes — it's one of our most popular set-ups. We design two signature cocktails with you (often one for each of you), name them, print them on the menu and pre-batch them so service stays fast.
