The service, in plain English

What you're actually getting when you book us.

What it is

Bespoke bar service for corporate events: branded mobile bars, signature cocktails developed around your product, uniformed bartenders, full stock packages, signed risk assessments and itemised pour reports.

Who it's for

In-house events teams, marketing departments running launches, PR agencies booking activations, hospitality teams running client entertaining, conference organisers and venue operators.

When you need it

Product launches, brand activations, awards nights, AGMs, conferences, client entertaining, Christmas parties, summer parties, photo and PR shoots, store openings, sponsor lounges and trade shows.

Why it matters

Your bar is one of the most visible touchpoints at any corporate event, it's where conversations happen, where photos get taken, and where guests decide whether the evening felt premium or perfunctory. A bar that doesn't match your brand standard quietly undermines everything else you've paid for.

The cost of getting this wrong

Why generic event-bar suppliers cost more than they save.

Corporate hospitality runs on details. A late delivery, an off-brand uniform, a missed signature serve or a sloppy pour reflects on your brand, not the supplier. We've inherited too many activations where a 'cheaper' supplier delivered an unbranded bar, the wrong glassware and a team in jeans. The cost of switching halfway is always higher than getting it right first time.

What happens if you ignore it

Bar visibly off-brand in your event photography, used in social and PR for months.
Bartenders in inappropriate uniform standing next to your CEO.
Stock-outs of your hero product at exactly the moment journalists arrive.
No pour audit means no way to invoice spend back to the right cost centre.
Missing PLI documentation that blocks your venue from signing off the event.

Common mistakes we fix

Booking the bar last (after venue, AV and caterer) when it should be locked first.
Failing to brief signature serves around the brand, generic cocktails dilute the message.
No staff dress code provided, bartenders default to black-shirt-black-trouser.
Skipping the pre-event walkthrough, bar placement and guest flow go wrong on the night.
Forgetting non-alcoholic equivalents for clients and guests who don't drink.

Compliance and procurement

We work to PO terms with major brands and agencies, supply suppliers-onboarding packs (RA, COSHH, PLI, Modern Slavery, GDPR), and accept payment via PO, BACS or company card. Designated invoicing contact assigned per engagement.

Travel and out-of-region delivery

We deliver corporate activations across the UK, with regional pricing within 40 miles of Liverpool and transparent per-mile rates beyond. National multi-city activations (Manchester → Birmingham → London) coordinated by a single account manager.

Trusted by
