Who supplies the booze?

Because we’re in the lovely state of Utah, clients typically provide the alcohol. In fact, most states don’t allow mobile bartenders to purchase the alcohol on their clients’ behalf. That said, we’re here for you every step of the way and will provide a detailed alcohol shopping list based on your event requirements.

Can you do a cash bar?

In most cases, clients host an open bar for their guests. Cash bars are only available if your venue has a license OR if a single event permit is pulled through the DABC.

Do you carry insurance?

Sure thing! We’re fully insured with a $2M general liability and liquor liability policy. Many venues require proof of insurance and we’re happy to provide that! 

Where are you located and how far will you travel?

We’re based in Salt Lake City, UT, but we love to hit the open road! Zion Wedding? Moab retreat? We got you! We love any excuse to travel all over the state of Utah! (Travel expenses apply to all events further than 30 miles from Salt Lake City, UT)

I want a keg of beer at my event…

Sweet! In order to have a keg of beer, your venue must have a license to supply the keg. We’ve got the supplies to hook up any keg to our tap wall and bar gondola.

A lot of my guests don’t drink alcohol - how does that work? 

We believe that all guests should have a delicious beverage in hand, regardless of drinking preferences! We encourage clients to consider options for those who don’t drink alcohol, such as a lemonade bar, Italian sodas, and speciality mocktails! We’ll work with you to create the best experience for all of your guests.

What is your payment and cancellation/refund policy?

We require a 50% non-refundable deposit to confirm your reservation. If you need to reschedule your event, we’ll transfer your deposit to another event date within 12 months of your original event. For events that need to be cancelled, we have a tiered refund policy depending on how far out from your event you cancel.

Do you offer tastings? 

We love tastings! Tastings are a great way to dial in your specialty drinks with your besties, plus we love getting to know our clients before their event. We will assemble a curated menu ahead of time for you to choose six mini-beverages to try. 

What are the technical requirements for the bars?

Mecca’s Wooden Bar and Tap wall need about a 10’ x 10’ area to set-up (ideally near an outlet). Our bar gondola requires a 15’ x 10’ area and access to electrical hookups. All bars need a flat surface for setup and service, as well as clear access for set-up and breakdown. If Mecca’s Wooden Bars will need to be transported up stairs or an elevator, please let us know these details in advance.

I want my event to be as sustainable as possible - do you offer glassware?

Glassware is not only a more sustainable option, but it elevates the beverage experience! We facilitate glassware rentals for just about any type of glass you can think of! We’ll handle to pickup, management during your event, and dropoff of glassware. (Check with your venue to make sure they allow glassware).

Do you donate your services?

For the right cause, yes! Reach out and let us know more about your organization/event. 

What is your inclement weather policy?

If possible, the bar can be moved inside. The host is responsible for tent cover of the bar in the event of inclement weather. We’re happy to work with your tent vendor to find the appropriate sized tent for your event.
