The Local Bar Experience
Local Bar Hire for Weddings, Celebrations and Events Across the UK
A mobile traditional drinks bar brought to your venue, not a pub or venue hire. Kent-based and travelling nationwide, including the Midlands. Explore the Local Bar Experience from £1,799, with optional mocktails and travel and accommodation confirmed in your tailored proposal.
A Bar Brought to Your Celebration
What Is the Local Bar Experience?
At Mijays Bar, local bar hire means a mobile event bar built around traditional drinks and styled presentation. We bring the bar experience to your chosen venue, rather than offering a pub, fixed bar or event space.
Choose drinks that suit your guests and the occasion, with the setup and service shaped around your celebration. Your proposal sets out the menu, serving allowance, staffing, glassware, setup and service timings before you book.
For traditional drinks bar hire with a reception mocktail option, you can select both services in the existing enquiry form. Each choice is clearly priced in your tailored proposal.
What's Included
Drink Choices and Mocktail Pairing
Build your selection around the drinks and presentation you want. Your proposal confirms the Local Bar scope and prices any additional services separately.
Traditional Drinks
Sobolo, asaana and ginger or pine ginger are established traditional drink choices. Your final selection and servings are agreed for your event.
Styled Local Bar
Create a welcoming focal point with traditional drinks and presentation tailored to your celebration. Setup, equipment, glassware and staffing are specified in your quote.
Optional Alcohol-Free Mocktails
Pair the Local Bar with a separately quoted mocktail service. Choose a welcome reception or explore the existing four-hour Luxe and Grand Luxe mocktail packages.
Optional Canapés and Snacks
Canapés and traditional snacks are separate service choices, not automatic Local Bar inclusions. Meat pies are a separately quoted add-on.
Optional Palm Wine
Palm wine is a separate optional extra. Availability, venue suitability and appropriately licensed supply and service are confirmed before booking.
Cocktails and Mocktails
Looking for cocktails and mocktails? Enquire about a combined service. Alcoholic service is subject to confirming a suitable licensed mobile bar partner and venue requirements.
