There's no harm in asking!
Creating your dream event can often be overwhelming, let us put your concerns to rest with the following answers to our most common queries:
We provide our fully-staffed cash bar service free of charge for events of 50+ adult guests in attendance! If you are expecting to host an event with under 50 attendees, please enquire for a quote and we will do our utmost to assist you.
We are fully licensed to sell alcohol; however, if a venue is not licensed then we will arrange a temporary license for your event at no cost to you. We require a sensible lead time (minimum of three weeks) in order to have your license filed before your event date. If you need a shorter turnaround for your event, we may still be able to help you but we might require a late license which is then chargeable - this is not possible with less than 10 Clear Working Days. We do not operate our bars without a licensed being filed.
Yes, we do provide a mobile card payment facility (entirely dependent on signal). Remote locations and event venues without WiFi (fields, heritage sites and festivals) may struggle for signal and in these cases we have the capacity to resort to cash-only payments. In the majority of cases we recommend reminding your guests to bring cash in case of signal loss or similar circumstances.
For up to 110 guests we will provide 2 members of staff, with an extra member of staff for every 60 guests over 120. If you require further members of staff please do not hesitate to contact us.
We tend to set up an hour before service is due to start. We normally start service from 6:00pm for an evening event; however, a time can be arranged to suit your needs.
If you want to provide your own drinks you would need to book our 'DRY HIRE' service where you book the equipment and staff that you require and we serve your drinks.
If opting for our Free-To-Hire Cash Bar Service we do not allow you to provide ANY DRINKS as part of the terms of our Free-To-Hire Cash Bar. Our bar comes with our dedicated team, our great range of drinks but you may request certain drinks and we will try to source them on your behalf before the event.
Technically yes, although we don’t work on a "Drink until you drop." basis as this doesn’t comply with our responsible drinking code. Please be aware that our staff reserve the right to close the bar at any point in response to customers / guests showing them any kind of abuse. We do not encourage irresponsible drinking to keep people your guests and our staff safe.
We stock a wide variety of drinks on our bars designed to fit the tastes of all your guests. If there is a specific beverage you are after then let us know as we have an extended stock list of a further 200+ drinks available. Please speak with our team regarding availability and if we are in a position to alter menus and options to suit you.
We cover the whole of the UK and regularly travel to all corners of the country. Select locations may incur a travel charge or a higher deposit amount for their distance from our offices but most locations are covered by our standard T&C’s.
As standard we supply our draught beer on tap from a local craft brewery and, whilst we do often change this, we tend to have 1 lager as standard. Different tap options are available; however, we have to charge a deposit on the keg for any product we do not stock as standard. If the keg sells fully, then the deposit is refunded - this is to cover the additional wastage.
