How to pick the BEST MOBILE BAR

I was checking Google and I entered ”Mobile Bar”  I saw a lot of links already from websites to web pages compared to 10 years ago  wherein there were only 2 and one of them was not even here in the country. In fact MOBILE BAR is like a LAW FIRM on line. The appropriate term for this is BAR CATERING OR BAR HOSTING. Regardless of this information, when looking for a bar caterer what do you look for? Number of drinks? Price?Add ons?

Personnel or Bar Staff – This should be first on your list since they will be the ones making those cocktails. Professional Presence is a must from grooming and sanitation down to knowledge and skills. They don’t have to be super smart but at least they know what they are dealing with. Ideally, the staff should have at least undergone TESDA bartending short course or an HRM degree since alcoholic beverages is no laughing matter. Personality wise they should be courteous and can establish a good rapport and help liven up your party. Oh and of course they should be of legal age to serve alcohol. The service of the staff should make your event a memorable one. 

Product – If you are good with the first one, then this aspect is expected to be good as well. The product does not only include the cocktails but even the whole package that comes with it. This would include the bar set up, glasswares, equipment and tools ice chest, decorations and even the vehicle they used. Going back to the cocktails, if it was made by a professional it should be well balanced. That is the key. If your main purpose is just to get drunk and not to enjoy the mixture of ingredients, then you better just chug the liquor straight from the bottle. Mixology is an art similar to cooking and it takes practice to perfect this art. Make sure that even the garnish is fresh.

Price – In this aspect, let’s just say “you get what you paid for”. As a consumer, it is your right to compare. But please look back at the first two aspects and the value for that may vary.  If you feel that during the event, you didn’t get value for your money, you have the right to complain.

So, I hope this will help you choose the right bar host for your next party. There are a lot out there but the question is which one? Cheers!
