Common questions

Can Social and Cocktail Events accommodate events outside standard Glasgow locations?

As a mobile bar service based in Glasgow, they're equipped to travel to different venues throughout the area. Contact them directly to confirm the service radius they cover and whether additional travel fees apply for events further from their Suite 201 location on Kilmarnock Rd.

What's included when we book their mobile cocktail bar for an event?

While specific inclusions aren't detailed on their basic information, standard mobile bar services typically include the bartender(s), basic bar equipment, and standard spirit selections. You'll need to contact them directly to confirm what's included in their pricing and discuss custom requests for specific spirits, premium options, or specialty ingredients.

How do cocktail-making classes work, and how many guests can they accommodate?

Cocktail-making classes are interactive experiences where guests learn to make drinks themselves under professional guidance. Contact Social and Cocktail Events to discuss group size capacity, class duration, difficulty levels, and whether classes can be customized around your event's theme or the guests' skill levels.

What's the minimum booking requirement or event size to hire their mobile bar?

Minimum event sizes and associated costs aren't publicly listed. Reach out to them directly to discuss whether they have minimum guest numbers, whether they work with intimate gatherings, and how their pricing scales for different event sizes.

How far in advance should we book, and what dates are typically available?

With extended weekend hours (until 11:00 PM Thursday-Saturday), they're geared toward evening events, but availability varies seasonally. Contact them during their business hours (Monday-Wednesday 9 AM-6 PM, Thursday-Saturday 9 AM-11 PM) to check your preferred dates and recommended booking windows for your season.

Can they work with venues that have dietary restrictions or alcohol-free requirements?

This is an important conversation to have directly with their team. Confirm whether they can accommodate events requiring non-alcoholic-only bars, sugar-free options, or other dietary considerations, and how they'd adjust their service model for these requirements.
