Who Provides the Alcohol for Mobile Bar Hire?
In short: Alcohol may be supplied by the client, venue or as part of an agreed service arrangement. The correct route depends on venue rules, licensing and the written booking; never assume that hiring the bar automatically includes drinks stock.

Decision checks
What to settle before the bar is booked

Quantities and leftovers
Agree stock estimates, reserve supply and who keeps unopened product.
A useful first brief
Send the facts that change the answer
Include the event date, full postcode, venue type, guest numbers, planned service hours and the role the bar needs to play. Add photographs or a floor plan when access or position could affect the setup.
The reply can then separate the bar, staff, equipment, travel and any optional items instead of hiding assumptions inside one number. Only inclusions confirmed in writing form part of the booking.
Quick answers
Questions people ask before booking

Can I buy the alcohol myself?
Potentially, subject to the venue, licensing and agreed service setup.
Who chills the stock?
