mobile bar hire in Lancashire & the ribble valley
Your Event. Our Tap.
From a relaxed garden gathering to the biggest day of your life, The Travelling Tap brings the bar to you.
About Us
Meet The Travelling Tap – a beautifully crafted mobile bar built from scratch in 2026 after years of dreaming and scheming. Founded by brothers-in-laws Alan and Ben, this isn’t just a business, it’s a homegrown passion project built on trust, hard work, and a lot of heart.
By combining a sharp eye for detail from an engineering background with the grit and practical craftsmanship of a farming background, we poured our skills into building the ultimate portable bar. The result? A stunning, fully custom setup engineered to look incredible and perform flawlessly at any venue, inside or out.
Our mission is simple: to help create unforgettable memories and make your celebration feel genuinely special. We don’t just show up and pour drinks. We pride ourselves on a warm, personal approach, working closely with you ahead of the big day to tailor everything to your requirements.
Whether you are planning an intimate gathering, a festival-style wedding, a milestone private party, or a large corporate event, we can handle the logistics from start to finish. We believe you should be a guest at your own party. So leave the details to a family team you can completely trust. Relax, and let us bring the bar, and the good times, to you!
