Here at TheBartender, we’ve been mixing premium cocktails for premium hen parties for over 14 years, and in this time we have fine-tuned and tweaked our cocktail offerings to bring you the very best drinks packages for your hen party.
If you’re looking to plan a creative weekend of activities, perhaps our Cocktail Clinic may be the thing for you – these work best in the afternoons as a post-lunch pre-dinner workshop, giving you something to look forward to and chat about through dinner. You’ll learn all about the history of cocktails, and be taught some great methods of mixing great drinks.
Or, if you’re simply looking for a super bartender to bring you a few rounds of cocktails, the All-Inclusive option will suit you better. You may want to get the bride to knock up a round perhaps, but with this package the focus is more on having your bartender do the work for you!
Gin enthusiasts can try their hand at making their own ginfusions with our Gin & Teatime package, where you’ll learn all about the nation’s favourite alcoholic tipple and the cocktails that have made it famous. You’ll even get to take home your very own bespoke gin.
More info on each package is outlined below, or you can give us a call on 01179 415 825 to talk about your dream package.

The Cocktail Clinic is a fun training session to teach you about cocktails and how to make them. Our tried and tested method not only provides great entertainment, but will also leave you with a new set of skills, ready to impress at your next dinner party.
This is priced at £40 per person including all drinks, glasses and ice as well as the training for a two hour class. We currently offer this on a 10 person minimum booking. This service includes a set menu of seasonal cocktails, but you can of course make requests as to what you’d like to learn.
Our hassle-free option; you pay just £35 each and receive a Complete Cocktail Service at the lowest possible price. This package includes; Professional Cocktail Bartender for 2.5 hours, all ingredients based on four cocktails each, plastic glassware and menus. This is charged on a per head basis for groups of 10 to 25.
This is perfect for a pre-going out drinks party, or even just as a warm-up for the evening before the party really starts.
You can upgrade your All-Inclusive package with real glass, a mobile bar, butler in the buff or a flair bartender. Get in touch to check availability and prices of these.
Our bartenders cost £60 per hour, on a 4 hour minimum service hire. This covers your professional cocktail bartender, 60 minutes setup time in advance (you do not pay for this time), all cocktail making equipment, all of our assistance with helping you choose cocktails, writing up your shopping list, full insurance and a back-up bartender in case anything goes wrong with yours on the day.
Choose your cocktails from one of our menus, and we’ll write up a shopping list for you, telling you what to buy, and in some cases, where from. We have taken care with our menus to make sure that they cover a range of popular cocktails but with ingredients that are easy enough to source in supermarkets. If there are any ingredients that you’re struggling to find, our office team can advise on where to order these from.
Over the past five years, gin has rapidly increased in popularity, with the humble gin & tonic now served splashing around in a huge copa glass, with a dazzling array of garnishes such as frozen watermelon cubes and lemon thyme.
We have created an afternoon activity for crafty hen groups who want to learn the intricacies of gin, the history, it’s rise to where it is today, and of course, to mix and taste some great gin cocktails. We will send you a gin geek to take you on a journey around the world through gin. This is priced at £40pp, which includes a gin-tender, an array of premium gins, all ingredients, glassware & ice for four drinks each.
If you’re feeling particularly crafty, for an additional £5pp, you can create your very own gins to bottle and infuse for after the party. Your gin-tender will have a range of botanicals and essences for you to choose from, along with bottles and paper tags for you to make a note of what you’ve created.
Gin Gin!
Our latest package is based upon the nation’s favourite show about cakes, however ours comes with a twist (and an olive). We’ll split everyone up into teams, and then present each team with a crate full of ingredients, some labelled, some not, along with a list of cocktails that you need to make within 30 minutes (these may, or may not have the full instructions).
Cocktails are judged by our bartender (Paul “shaken not stirred” Hollywood) and the winning team are awarded ’Star Shaker’, along with some prizes.
There will also be some other elements, including the Showstopper Challenge, where the challenge is to create the most intricate garnish upon a simple cocktail.
Costs for this session are priced at £40pp.
