Can I book a bartender in Chester during Chester Races (multiple dates through the year)?
Yes, you can absolutely book during Chester Races! Just be aware that the Roodee racecourse area and city centre roads get very busy on race days. We only allow 30 minutes for setup so if road access is a little tricky, we recommend mentioning Chester Races when you book and we can advise on whether to allow some extra setup time.
Can you set up at student accommodation near the University of Chester?
We certainly can! Student halls, shared houses, rented flats and any other type of accommodation all work perfectly for bartender hire.
Can your team access venues near the Rows and Eastgate Street in Chester with all the equipment?
Yes. While the Rows and Eastgate Street is pedestrianised, we are experienced at finding nearby drop-off points and loading bays. Our equipment is designed to be portable, so a short walk from the nearest vehicle access point is no problem at all. We may need to book additional setup time for pedestrianised locations, so please enquire about this before booking and we can advise.
Can you navigate Chester's historic streets with all your equipment?
Absolutely. We know how to find access points and loading bays near restricted areas, and our equipment is fully portable, so narrow streets and pedestrianised zones are not an issue. We may need to book additional setup time for tricky access locations, so please enquire about this before booking and we can advise on exactly what is needed.
Do you cover areas outside Chester?
Yes, we cover all of Chester and the surrounding area, including Liverpool, Neston, Mold and Wrexham. We also offer a cocktail making class in Chester. In fact, we cover the whole of the UK!
How far in advance should I book a bartender in Chester?
We recommend booking as early as possible, especially for Friday and Saturday evenings and during popular periods in Chester. That said, we are flexible and can sometimes accommodate last-minute bookings.
