What is a mobile bar, and how does it work?
A mobile bar is a bar service that comes to your location, complete with bartenders, equipment, and all the essentials for serving drinks.

Do you provide the alcohol, or do we need to supply it?
Nope, due to Texas Liquor laws, we cannot carry a liquor license. However, based on your desired menu, we provide you with an itemized shopping list. You get to shop where you want and it saves you a ton of scrilla.

How far in advance should I book your services?

What is included in your packages?
Our packages typically include the bar setup, bartenders, tools, mixers, garnishes, and glassware (or disposables). We can also include additional services like custom cocktail creation, drink signage, and décor based on your needs.
How much space do you need to set up the bar?
We can adapt to different spaces, but we generally require a minimum of 6x10 feet for the bar and serving area. Let us know your venue layout, and we’ll make it work!
Do you provide bartenders, or do I need to hire them separately?
We provide professional bartenders as part of our service. They’re experienced, friendly, and skilled at mixing drinks and engaging with your guests.
Do you need access to electricity or water at the venue?
Not always! Our mobile bar is self-sufficient, but access to electricity or water can be helpful depending on the event setup and drink menu. Let us know your venue details, and we’ll plan accordingly.
How much do your services cost?
Pricing depends on the event size, duration, drink menu, and location. Contact us for a customized quote tailored to your event’s specifics.
Do you charge a booking fee or deposit?

What payment methods do you accept?
We accept credit cards, debit cards, bank transfers, and cash. Let us know your preferred method!

We’re happy to assist with recommendations and arrangements to make the process seamless for you!
What is your payment and refund/cancellation policy?
We require a 50% deposit to confirm your reservation. Cancellations made 45 days before the event are eligible for a refund, minus the non-refundable deposit. Cancellations made within 30 days of the event are non-refundable. If for any reason the client cancels the booking within a month prior to the event date, the Contracting Party shall be liable to pay the total price contracted for the services. If Un Trago Mas cancels the event due to unforeseen circumstances, a full refund, including the deposit, will be issued. Additionally, once the final payment is made- it cannot be refunded. While we do not refund payment < 45 days, they are fully transferable if postponed no later than 72 hrs before your event date.
Are you CERTIFIED and insured?
Yes! Our bartenders are state certified to control liquor. All bartenders are TABC certified and hold their food handlers permits. We carry a $2 million liquor liability insurance policy and general insurance policy. We do not carry a liquor license since we do not sell alcohol.
Are there time limits for your service?
Our standard packages cover a set duration (e.g., 4-6 hours). If you need additional time, we can arrange that for an added fee.
What are your policies on shots, checking IDs and cutting people off?
-
No shots. We can do mixed shots only. Also, walking up to the bar with a group and ordering a round of jameson/tequilla/vodka etc. on the rocks that you're planning to chug together is still a shot. We love that you're having a good time, but with a 4+ hours open bar (meaning unlimited free booze), we need to impose some boundaries for the safety of your guests.
-
We check IDs. Serving minors is illegal and is taken very seriously by the law.
-
Anyone who is visibly intoxicated will be cut off. It's not fun, but it is occasionally necessary. We love when everyone has a great time (and we wouldn't have it any other way) but the safety of your guests is our priority.
Do you have a minimum or maximum number of guests you can serve?
We can accommodate small, intimate gatherings or large events with hundreds of guests. Let us know your guest count, and we’ll scale our services to match.
Do you offer a cash bar option?
Unfortunately, we cannot provide a cash bar due to Texas state laws. However, we’re happy to work with you to create a beverage plan that fits your event’s needs, including helping you estimate the amount of alcohol to purchase and ensuring everything runs smoothly. Let us know your preferences, and we’ll make it a great experience for your guests!
What happens if we don’t have enough alcohol for our event?
Don’t worry! We can help you estimate how much alcohol you’ll need for your event based on your guest count and drink preferences. If you run out of alcohol during the event, we can assist you with sourcing more or offer alternatives to keep the drinks flowing. Let’s talk through your drink plans to make sure you’re fully prepared!
Do you charge extra for travel or mileage?
We include travel within a certain distance from our location in the price of our service. For events that are outside of this area, additional travel or mileage fees may apply. We’ll discuss any potential extra charges with you when you book to ensure there are no surprises. Let us know your event location, and we’ll provide an accurate quote!
