What do bartending services include?

From martinis to cosmopolitans, you can rely on bartenders to shake things up. Alcoholic drinks are always an excellent addition to the menu for any occasion. You can even have someone cater cocktails for a fancier affair. Here are some services you can get when hiring bar staff:  

Full-service bartending

Depending on the occasion, you can hire a full bartending service. They offer different packages depending on the size of your event. Complete services include the bartenders, barbacks, mixing, drinks, and serving equipment. Some services also have separate packages available if you want to provide the alcohol for your event. Some go to the lengths to plan a special menu of drinks for the occasion. Taskers will be in charge of setting up the bar, serving the drinks, and even cleaning up afterwards.

Planning the menu

You can add flair to any hospitality service with a customised menu. It is a good idea to hire someone who has attention to detail. Some cocktail bartenders for hire include menu planning to their services. This may consist of planning sessions and pre-event tasting. They can also customise menus based on speciality drinks, fresh and seasonal ingredients, and the theme of an event. 

Choosing a mobile bar

A mobile bartender brings the party to any venue with a bar on wheels. You can have it set up at any location, like hotel function rooms or your backyard. You have the option to customise its look depending on the theme. It is an efficient option because of the many elements present on the bar. The panel bars and folding shelves of a mobile bar make it easier to serve guests their favourite cocktails during private events. 

Mixing speciality cocktails and drinks

When hiring a cocktail bartender, you are usually after their skills and speciality drinks. You may need to provide the spirits, wine, and beer. You may also need to provide equipment for them although some choose to bring their own equipment. Professionals may speak with you in advance to advise you on what drinks to provide. It is essential to communicate what drinks you want to be served during your party or corporate event.

Rowville VIC, Australia

10th Mar 2025

I’m hosting an informal cocktail party in Rowville on Saturday the 5th of April for approximately 15 guests. I need someone between 7:15pm and 11:45pm (4.5 hours) to help mix and serve cocktails, collect and wash glasses, and heat and serve food. Everything is provided, including glassware, alcohol, recipes, blenders, shakers, measures, ingredients, garnishes and food. The recipe list contains 30 cocktails and shots, examples are: Toblerone, Strawberry Daiquiri, Midori Illusion, Mojito and Cowboy. There will be an area set aside in the butler’s pantry to mix and blend cocktails. The cocktail recipes are pinned onto the wall in the butler's pantry. We will order cocktails in batches (eg: 12 Pina coladas). We won't get through all the cocktails; we'll have approximate 10 rounds of drinks. Applicants must be reliable. You should dress to look the part of a bar-hand or cocktail waitress. I’d like to get your mobile number so that I can send you the address and confirm your attendance on the day.

Lidy was prompt and courteous, which I appreciated. However, she wasn’t as quick at making cocktails as I would have preferred. That said, the cocktails were delicious, and the food she cooked was well-prepared. One downside was that she didn’t clear away the empties, which would have been helpful.
