The Bar From Afar has been created for our new cocktail classes where you take part from the comfort of your home, office, or holiday cottage. In line with more and more people working from home, we understand that our traditional means of social interaction are going to be missed; the water cooler, the work canteen, and especially the Friday night drinks in the Dog & Duck.

Over the past ten years, we have been privileged to be at the launch of some iconic sets of wheels rolling the streets today. Our team have been asked to provide services for supercar brands such as Lamborghini, sports cars such as Porsche, Morgan and Ford Mustang, as well as car giants Audi, Land Rover, and Citroen.

Let me ask you; why would anyone want to be a bartender? You’ll need to be able to knock up drinks orders in seconds, stay on your feet for around 8 hours a day, greet new and old faces to your section of the ‘stick’ all the while having money waved in your face to serve someone new.

Last Friday we had the immense pleasure of looking after the drinks for one of the coolest supercar companies in the world.

Back in early July, we were proud to once again be working with the careful and creative minds over at Alastair Currie Events on this beautiful birthday in North Bristol.

We were asked by the design team at HOK Londonto assist with a biophilic design discussion event, using nature to inspire the cocktails that we would serve.

We were asked by the excellent guys at The Events Company to entertain 95 delegates of a national recruitment agency on an away day at the excellent Eysham Hall in Oxfordshire.

Although we work all across the UK our hometown is Bristol – this is where the Bartender Hire Company was born. This weekend (20th-22nd July 2018) we celebrate the Bristol Harbour Festival, one of the UK’s largest free festivals which sees over 250,000 visitors descend on the centre of Bristol to celebrate its rich maritime history.

Last summer, we were approached by Concierge London to help with the service of a fabulous wedding in Cheltenham. The brief was to provide a festival themed bar, with drinks being served across two days.

With the start of each new year, we vow to make at least one change to the business that will reduce our environmental impact. In the past, we have gone completely paperless in the office by paying all invoices and filing paperwork digitally, as well as choosing to use biodegradable green straws for all of our events.

Once again, we were invited by YES to impress the team at Citroën’s annual awards for 2015, this year at Mercure Walton Hall in Warwickshire.

The Mustang is well renowned for being the ultimate American muscle car. In Spring 2015, Ford launched the Mustang in Europe for the first time, in the stunning surroundings of Lake Tegernsee just 45 minutes south of Munich.

Aldwick Court Farm & Vineyard is a venue that specialises in conferences, weddings and other events. Recent development work has extended the facilities to include a beautiful new barn, hidden away in the Mendip countryside, yet only 20 minutes from Bristol City Centre.

The time has come again for us to look at our bookings over the past year, and take stock of what has been popular. Things have shaken up a bit, but it’s definitely still the classics reigning supreme.

In February, we had the pleasure of mixing cocktails for the 20th anniversary of luxury fixed based operators Harrods Aviation at London Stansted airport.

We were asked by our friends at Mirage Parties to assist with an incredible birthday party, where glamour, glitz and sparkle were the flavours on the day.

This week, we provided an exhibition service for Teradata, a global leader in data warehousing, business intelligence and CRM management. The brief was to provide a spectacle at a networking event at the Park Plaza Hotel, Westminster for delegates and fellow companies.

Another week, another fantastic exhibition. The team at CooperVision and Five by Five once again called upon our expertise to assist with their Optrafair 2014 exhibition space at Olympia London this April.  The brief was to create a buzz with both drinks and performances to draw people to the stand and mingle with staff and other guests alike.

On Monday, we had the pleasure of providing cocktail solutions for Citroën UK’s annual ceremony, the Excellence Awards 2014
