Mobile Bar Hire in London

Choosing Your Perfect Pour: Themes and Tipples

Now for the fun part: deciding what you’ll actually be serving. The days of a simple beer and wine offering are long gone. Today’s mobile bars are specialists, offering curated menus that can become a centrepiece of your event.

Your vision is what matters most, and our suppliers are brilliant at tailoring their services to you. From creating a bespoke cocktail to match your theme to ensuring there are plenty of delicious non-alcoholic options, they ensure the final result is a personal experience that’s uniquely yours.

Here are a few popular themes we’re seeing across London right now:

The Aperitivo & Spritz Bar

Bring a taste of the Amalfi Coast to the capital. This theme is all about light, refreshing, and stylish drinks. Think Aperol Spritz, Campari Soda, and delicate prosecco-based cocktails. It’s effortlessly cool and perfect for afternoon events, summer parties, and receptions where you want to encourage sophisticated sipping and mingling. It sets a relaxed, continental tone that’s impossible not to love.

The Premium Gin Experience

London’s love affair with gin is still going strong. A dedicated gin bar is a fantastic way to engage your guests. They can choose from a curated selection of artisanal London Dry and craft gins, experiment with different tonics and garnishes, and learn a thing or two from the expert bartenders. It’s interactive, it’s educational, and it’s always a massive crowd-pleaser.

Signature Cocktails

Want to make your event truly personal? Work with your bar team to create a signature cocktail (or two). You could name it after your company, the happy couple, or an inside joke. It’s a fantastic branding opportunity for corporate events and a wonderfully personal touch for weddings and private parties. The mixologists are experts at crafting balanced, delicious drinks that will have your guests asking for the recipe.

Quality Zero-Proof Options

The demand for excellent non-alcoholic drinks has, thankfully, soared. Gone are the days of a sad-looking orange juice being the only option. A modern mobile bar will offer a fantastic menu of ‘mocktails’ or zero-proof cocktails that are just as complex and delicious as their alcoholic counterparts. Using premium ingredients like Seedlip, fresh juices, and homemade syrups, they ensure every single guest feels catered for and included in the fun.

The Nitty Gritty: What to Expect in Terms of Cost

Let's talk money. Budgeting is a crucial part of any event plan, and it’s important to know what to expect. In London, the mobile bar scene is competitive, which is great news for you as it keeps standards high and prices reasonable.

Your time is valuable, which is why we champion instant, all-inclusive pricing. There’s no waiting around for quotes. You can see exactly what’s included and make decisions quickly, making your planning process smooth and completely hassle-free.

Generally, you’ll encounter two pricing models:

• Price Per Person: This is a fantastic all-inclusive option. For a set fee per guest, you’ll typically get a certain number of drinks each, the bar unit itself, professional bartenders, glassware, and all the necessary ingredients and garnishes. In London, you can expect this to be in the region of £30–£55 per person. It’s a straightforward way to manage your budget, as you know the total cost upfront.
• Minimum Spend: This model is common for larger events. You agree to a minimum spend with the bar company, for example, £900–£1,600. Your guests might pay for their own drinks, or you can run a tab up to the agreed amount. If the total sales don’t reach the minimum spend by the end of the night, you simply pay the difference. This can be a very cost-effective option, especially if you have a lot of guests.
