Why You Need a Licensed and Insured Mobile Bartender


Many venues don't have their own liquor license, or perhaps you are hosting an event in a non-traditional space like a farm, a private property, or a backyard. Without a "liquor license", YOU are legally required to hire a professional mobile bartender to handle the alcohol service.


But let's discuss more "beyond the legalities", it is crucial and responsible to have a bartender who can manage the flow of alcohol responsibly. A trained, licensed bartender not only knows how to create delicious cocktails but also understands the importance of recognizing signs of intoxication, monitoring alcohol consumption, and ensuring that guests remain safe throughout the event.

A great bartender is important for any event


Here’s why hiring a licensed and insured mobile bartender is essential:


1. Legal Compliance


It is essential to comply with county and state laws and regulations surrounding alcohol service. A licensed mobile bartender can ensure that your event adheres to all relevant liquor laws, such as age verification, serving limits, and alcohol distribution. Without a licensed bartender, you risk facing hefty fines, penalties, and even the potential shutdown of your event. No one wants your wedding shut down because you aren't following


At SpringHaus Farm, we understand the importance of adhering to these regulations, which is why we're in the process of obtaining our own liquor license. In the meantime, we partner with top-tier mobile bartenders to guarantee our clients and all their guests/family receive the best service while staying within legal boundaries.

2. Recognizing Signs of Intoxication


A licensed bartender is trained to recognize the signs of intoxication and can take appropriate steps to prevent guests from becoming overly intoxicated. Over-serving alcohol not only puts the safety of guests at risk, but it can also lead to accidents, unruly behavior, and even legal liabilities. A responsible bartender will know when to cut off a guest from further alcohol service, ensuring a safe and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone.

3. Ensuring Guest Safety


When alcohol is served, it’s crucial to think about safety. An experienced bartender will know how to pace drinks, suggest lighter cocktails, and encourage guests to drink water between alcoholic beverages. This ensures that guests can enjoy the party while also keeping their safety and well-being in mind.


Good mobile bartenders will also be well-versed in handling tricky situations, such as dealing with intoxicated guests, and will always have a plan in case of an emergency. In addition, insurance coverage provides added peace of mind for both you and your guests in the event of an accident or mishap. At SpringHaus Farm, we intend to also have security present at every event behind the bar to keep our bartenders safe, and hopefully keep your Uncle Eddie from that 5th drink!

4. Creating a Memorable Experience


A well-trained bartender doesn’t just serve drinks; they create an experience. From custom cocktails to engaging with guests, a professional bartender knows how to keep the mood upbeat while ensuring that service remains smooth and efficient. The right bartender can elevate your event, making it one your guests will remember for all the right reasons.


At SpringHaus Farm, we believe that the bar area can be central to the experience. We take pride in the fact that we work with some of the best mobile bartending services until we obtain our licensure, ensuring that each event is handled with expertise and care.
