Frequently asked questions about cocktail making classes in York
Can I book a cocktail class in York during York Christmas Market (November to December)?
Yes, you can absolutely book during York Christmas Market! We love working during big events in York. Just be aware that the city centre around Parliament Street and Shambles gets extremely busy. We only allow 30 minutes for setup so if road access is a little tricky, we recommend mentioning York Christmas Market 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 York and York St John University?
We certainly can! Student halls, shared houses, rented flats and any other type of accommodation all work perfectly. As long as there is a table or flat surface for us to set up on, we will make it work.
What are the best areas in York for a hen party cocktail class?
Popular areas for hen parties in York include Micklegate and the city centre, but honestly, we come to you so wherever your accommodation is works perfectly. Many groups book an Airbnb or hotel suite and we set up right there. You get all the fun of a cocktail night out without having to leave your venue.
Is parking included for bookings in York city centre?
Yes, all parking costs are included in your booking price. York’s historic centre is largely pedestrianised with very limited vehicle access. Park and Ride is the recommended option and there are several sites around the city. Our team are experienced at finding parking in York and will sort everything themselves. You do not need to worry about arranging a space for us.
Do you cover areas outside York in North Yorkshire?
Yes, we cover all of York and the surrounding North Yorkshire area. We also offer cocktail making classes in Harrogate and cocktail classes in Scarborough. In fact, we cover the whole of the UK! Whether your venue is in the heart of York or further out in North Yorkshire, we will be there.
What if my York venue does not have much space?
We do not need a lot of room. A dining table, breakfast bar or any flat surface is perfect. Your mixologists bring a complete portable cocktail kit including chopping boards, shakers and all the tools needed. We have set up in living rooms, gardens, hotel suites and even garages. If in doubt, just send us a photo of the space and we will let you know.
