cocktail service in Guildford
Tipsy Parties provides cocktail bartender hire right across Guildford and the surrounding Surrey area. From the High Street to the Tunsgate Quarter, your bartenders travel to your venue with all the equipment needed to prepare your chosen cocktails for you and your guests.
“GUILDFORD”
You can hire the bartender team only, add cocktail glassware, or add both the glassware and ingredients for a complete service. We will also help you plan your cocktail menu and, when you are providing the ingredients yourself, supply a detailed shopping list with everything you need. Optional extras, including portable bar hire, can also be added for an additional fee.
From an Airbnb just off the cobbled High Street to a private venue close to Guildford Castle, a cocktail bartender turns any Guildford venue into a proper cocktail bar. You pick the cocktails and decide how long you want the service for, and your bartender makes every drink fresh for your guests, leaving you free to enjoy your own party.

Frequently asked questions about bartender hire in Guildford

It is up to you. You can hire the bartender team only, add cocktail glassware, or add both the glassware and ingredients for a complete service. If you are providing the ingredients yourself, we will send you a detailed shopping list for your chosen cocktails.

Can your bartenders access venues on Guildford's steep cobbled High Street?
We certainly can. While the High Street itself is pedestrianised and quite steep, there are loading bays and vehicle access points nearby, so a short walk with our equipment is no problem at all. We only allow 30 minutes for setup, so we may need to book additional setup time for this. Please enquire before booking and we can advise.
Can you set up at student accommodation near the University of Surrey?
We certainly can. Your bartenders come to you, so student halls, shared houses, rented flats and any other type of accommodation all work perfectly.
What if my venue in the town centre in Guildford does not have parking nearby?
No problem at all. All parking costs are included in your booking and our team will find suitable parking near your venue, whether that is an NCP, pay-and-display, or a residential street. You do not need to arrange anything for us.
Can a bartender come to an Airbnb in Guildford?
Of course. Whether it is an apartment near the High Street or a house in the Tunsgate Quarter, your bartenders come to you with all the equipment needed to prepare your chosen cocktails and set up wherever works best for you.
Do you cover areas outside Guildford?
Yes, we cover all of Guildford and the surrounding area, including Woking, Farnham, Dorking and Leatherhead. We also offer a cocktail making class in Guildford. In fact, we cover the whole of the UK!
How far in advance should I book a bartender in Guildford?
We recommend booking as early as possible, especially for Friday and Saturday evenings and during popular periods in Guildford. That said, we are flexible and can sometimes accommodate last-minute bookings.
