Mobile bar hire - King's Lynn
Mobile bar hire in King's Lynn.
We are based at South Wootton, a few minutes north of town, so King's Lynn is home turf. A dressed bar, trained staff and drinks poured at the right moment - for weddings, parties and corporate events across west Norfolk.
Being local matters more than it sounds. We know which King’s Lynn venues have a cellar and which have a bare corner, where the vans can unload, and how long the walk from the kitchen to the bar really is. That is the difference between a queue at 8pm and a bar that keeps moving all night.
We cover King’s Lynn, South Wootton, North Wootton, Castle Rising, Setchey, West Winch, Downham Market, Swaffham, Dersingham, Hunstanton, Fakenham and the villages in between - barns, marquees, gardens, country houses, town-centre venues and dry-hire spaces with nothing in place at all.
Because we cook the food too, the drinks land where they should: arrival fizz with the canapés, wine on the table before the first course, toast drinks poured before the speeches, and an evening bar that opens on cue.
If your venue is not already licensed - which is common with barns, marquees and private gardens around west Norfolk - the event needs a Temporary Event Notice from the borough council, currently £21. We apply for it as part of the package, so it is one less thing on your list.

Questions
King's Lynn bar questions, answered plainly.
- Do you offer mobile bar hire in King's Lynn?
- Yes - King's Lynn is home. We are based at South Wootton, a few minutes north of the town, and run a fully staffed mobile bar for weddings, parties and corporate events across King's Lynn, west Norfolk and the surrounding villages.
- How much does mobile bar hire cost in King's Lynn?
- Every bar is quoted individually: guest numbers, hours of service and whether you want a cash bar, a pre-paid tab or a set drinks package all change the figure. Evening bar service is generally free of charge when booked with one of our catering packages, and because we are local there is no travel charge in and around King's Lynn.
- Which venues do you cover around King's Lynn?
- Barns, marquees, gardens, country houses, town-centre venues and dry-hire spaces across west Norfolk - from Downham Market and Swaffham to Hunstanton, Fakenham and the villages in between. If you tell us the venue we will tell you honestly how the bar is best set up there.
- Can you bring the bar to a dry-hire venue?
- Yes. Dry-hire venues are one of the most common places we set up: we bring the bar unit itself, glassware, ice, refrigeration, trained staff and the appropriate licensing, and clear everything away at the end so the venue is left as we found it.
- Do you serve local beers and ciders?
- We do — and we love to. Alongside premium, well-known international brands, we always make room for local favourites, great wines, spirits and a short cocktail list. If there’s something specific you have in mind, just ask — we can usually source it, though it may require a deposit.
- Can we book the bar without the catering?
- Our bar works best alongside our food, because one team running both means drinks land at the right moments through the day. If you only need the bar, get in touch and we will let you know honestly whether we can cover your date.
- Does our King's Lynn venue need a licence for the bar?
- If your venue is already licensed, we simply work to its hours and curfew. If it is not - which is common with barns, marquees and private gardens around west Norfolk - the event needs a Temporary Event Notice from the borough council, currently £21. We apply for it as part of the package, so it is not something you need to chase.
- How many bar staff will you bring?
- It depends on guest numbers and how long the bar is open, and we would rather over-staff than leave people queuing. Guest numbers mainly tell us how many staff and how much glassware to bring - with a cash bar a bigger crowd simply means more people enjoying the bar, not a bigger bill for you.
- What time can the bar run until?
- Whatever your venue's licence and curfew allow. Around King's Lynn that is usually midnight, sometimes later at private and dry-hire venues. A five-hour evening bar is the most common shape, and we stay behind afterwards to clear the whole set-up away.
- Can you do cocktails at a King's Lynn wedding?
- Yes. Ryan trained as a cocktail mixologist in London before moving into the kitchen, so cocktails are genuinely part of the offer rather than an add-on. Espresso martinis, spritzes, negronis and a signature cocktail named after the two of you - made properly, served quickly.
- How far in advance should we book a bar in King's Lynn?
- Summer Saturdays tend to go twelve to eighteen months ahead. Midweek dates, winter weddings and corporate evenings are often available at much shorter notice, so it is worth asking even if your date is close.
