Mobile bar hire in York, from a restored horsebox.
Horsebox bar hire for York weddings, estates and celebrations.
Bar hire built for York events
Our mobile bar hire is built around a meticulously restored Rice horsebox in reclaimed timber and blackened steel — fully self-sufficient, with running water, warm amber lighting and a proper back bar. It arrives in York as a centrepiece and leaves without a trace.
Many York venues are listed or heritage sites with strict rules on fixings and access. A mobile bar solves that: it arrives, it serves, and it leaves the building exactly as it found it.

Mobile bar hire York — questions
How much does mobile bar hire cost in York?
Every York event is quoted individually against guest numbers, hire length and the commercial model you choose — complimentary against a minimum spend, flat paid hire, dry hire or profit share. Send us the date, venue and guest count and you'll have an itemised quote within 24 hours.
Do you charge travel to York?
Travel within 30 miles of base is included in every quote. Beyond that we add a clear, agreed travel figure up front — never a surprise line on the final invoice.
Which North Yorkshire venues do you work at?
We're not tied to a venue list. We regularly serve historic estates, walled gardens, barn weddings and private sites across North Yorkshire, and we'll liaise with your venue directly on access, power and licensing.
Can you supply the alcohol licence in York?
Yes. For staffed hire we hold personal licence cover and arrange the relevant TEN or premises arrangements with your venue. For dry hire, licensing sits with you or the venue and we'll talk you through what's needed.
How far in advance should we book?
Peak Saturdays in summer typically go 9–12 months out. Midweek and off-season dates are often available at much shorter notice — always worth asking.
