Cocktail Bar Hire
Mobile Bar Hire
Looking for a brilliant way to keep guests smiling and drinks flowing? Mobile Bar Hire brings the bar to your venue — whether that’s a village hall, a barn, a corporate space or a sunlit garden. At Anything for Hire we connect you to trusted local and national suppliers so you can compare styles, check credentials and book with confidence.
Why choose Anything for Hire?
Why trust us? With over 20 years in the events and hire industry, we’ve built a reliable marketplace that prioritises transparency, safety and great service. Why choose Anything for Hire? is simple: we screen providers, surface verified reviews, and make it easy to compare options — saving you the hours you’d otherwise spend chasing quotes.
Bar styles and solutions
Every event is different. Do you want something sleek for a launch party or something playful for a birthday? Our network supplies a range of options so you don’t have to compromise.
Pop-up cocktail bar
A compact, professional setup ideal for cocktail menus and attentive bartenders. Expect a polished surface, basic glassware storage and rapid service — perfect for events where craft drinks are a highlight. Try asking your supplier for a seasonal cocktail list to make the offering feel bespoke.
Vintage trailer bar
Charming and picture-ready, a vintage trailer turns the bar into a focal point. It’s tactile and sociable: polished wood, brass fittings and the gentle bustle of a well-run service creates an atmosphere guests remember.
Modular wooden bar
Flexible and sturdy, modular bars scale up or down to fit tight spaces or large tents. They’re easy to dress with signage, lighting and seasonal décor — great when you want a consistent look across several hire items like marquees or furniture.
Self-service beer tap
For festivals, company socials or relaxed summer parties, a self-service keg or beer tap brings a fun, cost-effective option. Controls and safety briefings are included so guests enjoy themselves responsibly.
How booking works
We’ve designed the booking flow so it’s reassuringly simple. Tell us the date and venue, choose your bar style, compare vetted providers and confirm your booking — all in a few clicks. Here’s what the process typically looks like:
- Search by location and date to see available bars from local suppliers.
- Compare specifications, equipment lists and verified reviews.
- Request a quote or book instantly where available.
- Coordinate logistics: delivery, set-up time and staffing through the supplier or our messaging tool.
We recommend checking licensing needs and guest numbers during booking so providers can advise on staffing levels and permitted serving hours.
On the day — what to expect
On event day, a professional set-up makes all the difference. Suppliers arrive within agreed time windows, handle assembly and basic health-and-safety checks, then open with a clear service plan so your guests aren’t waiting.
| Type | Ideal for | Typical staffing | Average setup time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pop-up cocktail bar | Cocktail receptions, weddings | 1–2 bartenders | 45–90 minutes |
| Vintage trailer bar | Outdoor festivals, styled weddings | 1–3 bartenders | 60–120 minutes (includes towing/positioning) |
| Modular wooden bar | Corporate events, marquees | 2+ bartenders depending on size | 60–90 minutes |
| Self-service beer tap | Casual socials, outdoor gatherings | Optional attendant | 30–60 minutes |
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a licence to serve alcohol?
Most venues already hold a licence, but for private spaces you may need temporary event notices or a personal licence depending on the scale. Suppliers on our platform can advise and often assist with paperwork or suggest licensed bar operators.
Can I customise the drinks menu and branding?
Yes. Many providers offer bespoke menus, signature cocktails and branded signage. During booking, tell suppliers about themes, allergies and any drink preferences so they can design a menu that fits your brief and budget.
How far in advance should I book?
Popular dates fill fast — aim for at least 8–12 weeks ahead for weddings or large events. For smaller private parties you can often secure a mobile bar within a few weeks, but the sooner you book, the more choice you’ll have.
Are suppliers insured and vetted?
Absolutely. We work with providers who carry public liability insurance and meet professional standards. Our vetting process includes checks on insurance, equipment safety and customer feedback so you can hire with confidence.
