Booking Options
Pay Bar
A bar your guests will want to come back to.
Â
Our pay bar gives guests the freedom to choose and purchase their own drinks throughout the event, with a carefully considered selection of wines, beers, spirits and cocktails behind the bar.
​
We build each menu around the occasion, balancing familiar favourites with something a little more interesting — from well-chosen wines and premium spirits to properly made cocktails, chilled beers and thoughtful non-alcoholic options.
​
Our experienced bar team takes care of everything on the day, from setup and service to keeping the bar stocked and running smoothly. Guests simply choose what they fancy, settle at the bar and enjoy the occasion.
​
For hosts, it’s a straightforward way to offer a well-stocked, professionally run bar without covering the drinks bill themselves.
Dry Hire
Bring the drinks. We’ll take care of everything else.
​
Our dry hire service gives you the freedom to source and supply your own drinks, while our experienced bar team takes care of the rest.
​
From the bar itself and glassware to ice, chilling, setup, service and clear-down, we handle the practical details that turn a collection of drinks into a properly run bar. You choose what you’d like to serve; we make sure it is presented, prepared and delivered with the same care and professionalism as any Bower + Hawthorne bar.
​
It’s a flexible option for clients who already have their drinks arranged, have access to a particular wine or spirit, or simply want more control over the selection and budget.
​
We can work with drinks you’ve sourced yourself, help you plan quantities and advise on what you’ll need, so you’re not left guessing how much to buy or how to make it all work on the day.
Drinks Package
We believe the best bar experiences start well before the event itself. Share your favourite wines, spirits, beers or cocktails with us, and we’ll help shape the rest around them.
​
We’ll take the time to understand your event, guest numbers and budget, then build a drinks selection that feels right for the occasion. From quantities and variety to service and presentation, we’ll guide you through the details and make sure everything comes together seamlessly on the day.
​
You bring the ideas. We bring the experience to make them work.
Cocktail Masterclass
Bring the cocktail experience to your own home, venue or event space with a hands-on masterclass led by one of our experienced bartenders.
​
We’ll bring everything you need - the drinks, ingredients, professional equipment and a few tricks of the trade - then guide your group through the making of a selection of cocktails.
Â
You’ll learn the techniques behind each serve, get involved in the shaking and stirring, and, most importantly, enjoy the drinks you’ve made along the way.
