What You Get With a Philly Yard Bar Rental

When you book Philly Yard Bar, you’re not renting a bar cart or a folding table with a skirt around it, you’re getting a full pub that rolls up to your event and sets up in your yard, your lot or your venue’s back lawn. We handle delivery, setup and breakdown, and the trailer arrives stocked with everything a great bar needs so your venue doesn’t have to provide a thing. Here’s what comes with every rental:

 

  • A 30-foot trailer with a U-shaped bar, interior seating and an elevated deck
  • Its own generator and running hot water no hookups needed, so we can set up almost anywhere
  • A retractable awning that keeps the bar running rain or shine
  • Commercial Bluetooth sound system and Smart TV for playlists, slideshows or branded presentations
  • Reclaimed wood barstools and high-top tables for guests to mix and mingle
  • Recessed lighting and plenty of beverage storage

Everything on that list travels with the trailer, so there’s nothing to rent separately and nothing for you to coordinate on event day. Once we’re set up, the bar becomes the natural gathering point — the spot where your guests drift back to between the toasts, the first dance and the last song of the night.

Choose Your Trailer

We run two mobile bars with distinct personalities. The OG features elegant rustic walls and artistic lighting, a natural fit for barn weddings, farm venues and anything leaning warm and traditional. Lil brings sleek lines and a modern interior, better suited to corporate activations, product launches and contemporary event spaces. Both are fully equipped and both travel the same service area, so the choice is purely about the look you want behind your guests.

How Our BYOB Mobile Bar Works

Philly Yard Bar is a BYOB service, which is what keeps it flexible and cost-effective for hosts. Here’s what that means in practice:

Owners behind Philly Yard Bar

We plan the menu together

Tell us about your event, your guests and your budget, and we’ll build you a custom drink list with signature cocktails included.

Bar Tenders posing behind Philly Yard Bar

We tell you exactly what to buy

You’ll get a suggested shopping list with quantities, so you’re not guessing at how much beer, wine or spirits your event needs.

You purchase the alcohol

Because you supply the alcohol directly, you control the spend and choose which brands, breweries and bottles end up behind the bar.

We handle everything else

We take care of delivery, setup, the bar itself and breakdown afterward, so you can enjoy your event instead of running it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a mobile bar rental cost?

Pricing depends on your event date, location, guest count and how long you need the bar on site. Peak dates and longer service windows cost more. Send us your details and we’ll put together a free estimate with no obligation.

Do you supply the alcohol?

No, Philly Yard Bar is a BYOB service, so you purchase the alcohol yourself. We’ll help you build the drink menu and send a suggested shopping list with quantities, so you know exactly what to buy and how much of it.

Do you need power or water at the venue?

No. Both of our trailers run on their own generator and carry running hot water, so we don’t need anything from your venue. That’s what lets us set up in backyards, fields, parking lots and country club lawns without any hookups.

How much space do you need?

Our trailers are 30 feet long and need level ground, plus clearance to tow in and position them. Most backyards, lots and open lawns work fine. Send us photos or an address and we’ll confirm your site works before you book anything.

How far in advance should I book?

Sooner is better, especially for spring and fall Saturdays, which tend to fill first. Wedding clients often reach out six to twelve months ahead. If your date is closer than that, still get in touch — we may have availability.
