Bartender and mixologist hire in London

Tipsy Parties provides cocktail bartender and mixologist hire right across London and Greater London. From Covent Garden to Bromley, your bartenders travel to your venue with all the equipment needed to prepare your chosen cocktails for you and your guests.

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 a hen party in a London apartment to a birthday in a private garden or your own home, the capital is full of places to celebrate. A cocktail bartender turns any London venue into a proper cocktail bar. You choose the cocktails and how long you want the service for, and your bartender makes them fresh for your guests, so you can enjoy your own party.
