FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is based on guest count, package selection, and event duration. We offer three service tiers starting at $8 per person for beer and wine, up to $12 per person for craft cocktails and custom menus. Equipment rental (bar setup) and bartender labor are separate line items. A 20% gratuity is added to all events. Travel within 30 miles of Gardena is included. Events beyond 30 miles are subject to a $2/mile travel fee. A 30% deposit is required to book. Final payment is due 14 days before the event. We operate as a dry hire bar — clients provide the alcohol. Full-service alcohol packages are available through our licensed beverage partner at an additional cost.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once you reach out, we’ll schedule a quick call to go over your event details — guest count, venue, date, and what kind of bar experience you’re looking for. From there we send a custom quote usually within 24 hours. Once you approve the quote and sign the service agreement, a 30% deposit locks in your date. We handle all the logistics from there — bar setup, staffing, and breakdown. You just show up and enjoy your event. We’re responsive and easy to work with. Most clients hear back from us within a few hours.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
