A bar for any occasion
At JP’s Kitchen, our bar hire is about so much more than just the drinks. It’s about creating an experience that’s tailored to your event, your theme and your guests. From intimate garden parties and weddings to high-profile events and award ceremonies, we know how to make a bar and its service an integral part of an unforgettable celebration.
Personalised in every detail
Whether it’s a dry hire with staff and equipment or a fully inclusive offering with unlimited drinks all evening long, we’ll bring your vision to life.
Signature drinks designed around your brand or your story, menus and glassware to match your theme, or even custom cocktails named for the day or the happy couple. We’re here to make every detail feel personal.
Enhance your event’s atmosphere
Styled to match your event
We’ll theme our bar to suit your setting – rustic wooden, sleek modern designs or fully-branded modules that put your message front and centre. From the drinks themselves to the bar’s look and feel, every element is chosen to enhance your event’s atmosphere.
One of our highest profile moments was creating a bar experience for the National Television Awards at Porchester Hall, London – serving hundreds of VIPs and celebrities with everything from champagne on the red carpet to table service during the awards dinner – working with event sponsors like BrewDog and Aspall Cyder to create a branded, modular bar setup that looked as good as everything we poured tasted.
JP’s Kitchen catered our 90-person corporate event for Superior Group, and they exceeded our expectations in every way. From start to finish, their team handled everything seamlessly. They provided a fantastic spread, from creative cocktails and delicious hors d’oeuvres to an incredible BBQ setup that was a hit with everyone.

How bar hire is priced
There are two main ways to book our bar, and your quote depends on which suits your event:
Dry hire – we provide the bar, staff and equipment, and the drinks are arranged separately.
Fully inclusive – everything is taken care of, including unlimited drinks all evening long.
Beyond that, the main factors are your guest numbers and hours of service, the style of bar (rustic wooden, sleek modern or fully-branded modules), any signature cocktails or personalised menus, and your venue.
Send us your date, venue, guest numbers and the kind of bar you have in mind, and we’ll come back with a tailored proposal.
