Harvey Woods2024-12-08 We couldn't thank Lissie and her amazing team enough for helping make our wedding day so special! Every detail was thought through and carefully curated with us and our other vendors. We were greeted by Lissie herself with our favourite drinks we'd previously discussed which added that extra personal touch. They were so accommodating to us and our guests and put all our questions at ease, their experience and professionalism shone through the whole process. What truly impressed us was their willingness to go above and beyond with our unique requests. When we asked for a bathtub to be stocked with beers and ice, they didn't bat an eye. They embraced our quirky idea and executed it flawlessly, creating a fun and memorable feature that our guests absolutely loved. This level of flexibility and creativity truly set them apart and made our celebration even more special. Elena Ortiz2024-12-07 I highly highly recommend Near and Far Mobile Bar and am so incredibly thankful for them! From start to finish, their organization, professionalism, and attention to detail made our Somerley House Oct ‘24 wedding perfect.🙌 Their organization was impeccable. Their online booking system saved us from back-and-forth scheduling emails, and they promptly provided a detailed quote with everything we needed to know including the number of bartenders and hours etc. We reached out to Near and Far Mobile Bar just one month before our October wedding after an unexpected mishap with another vendor. (Dont be like us- book way ahead!) Despite the short timeline, the team made everything come together quickly providing us with spirit and cocktail options right away. Their calm, organized, and thoughtful approach immediately put us at ease during our first call. They even scheduled a site visit shortly after. We love that this family-owned business is passionate about what they do. On our wedding day, their team executed everything perfectly. Guests were greeted with prosecco upon arrival, and signature cocktails were ready to go right after the ceremony - and delicious! No one had to wait more than a couple of minutes for a drink. So many of our guests also had the time to speak to the team and loved their story of how they got their business started and sharing english cultural tidbits (for our American- British wedding). We heard from so many guests afterwards how much they loved the bar staff. When planning a wedding, we believe it’s important to have vendors you connect with, and Lissie and Matt were so kind and thoughtful throughout the entire process. We were so glad to see them on our wedding day and celebrate with them! 🫶🏼 If you’re considering Near and Far Mobile Bar, do it. They are amazing and truly the best of the best!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you so so much Lissie and Matt ☺️ Andrew Lodge2024-11-29 Every aspect was as we’d ordered and agreed. Really easy process from initial enquiry and great staff on the evening. The cocktails went down a storm and the horse trailer bar looked perfect in the field! Emma Chivers2024-11-29 Wow wow wow!! what can I say, Near and Far are by FAR the best bar team that you could hire! From start to finish the service was seamless. From our initial call with Lissie - who apart from being just the loveliest person, went out of her way to make sure every component was perfect. Nothing was too much trouble. Her communication was excellent and put our minds at ease in the days prior that our party was going to go perfectly and she was not wrong. Matt and his team who arrived on the day were incredible! They totally got in to the spirit of it and the service they provided was not only quick, seamless, the bar aesthetically beautiful, but also, so much fun! The drinks, well it would be fair to say I was over served in the best way possible but when the drinks are that good, what are you going to do!! The margs, my absolute favourite drink, were unreal! All of our guests commented on how brilliant the team were! Five star service from start to finish! The only problem is I don’t have another party in the pipline yet to use them again BUT when I do, they will be my first phone call!! Thank you, thank you, Lissie and Matt! You are the experts in your field and just get it SO right! I can’t wait until next time, there absolutely will be one!! Xxx Michael & Amy Cretten (Michael & Amy)2024-10-26 Near & Far were amazing for our wedding. The constant contact with Lissie was great leading up to the wedding and making sure everything was perfect for the day! The team were absolutely superb throughout and with guest complimenting how professional and organised the where! All the team were so friendly and a joy to be around! Our guests even requested for them to join us on the dancefloor to dance to candy with us! Honestly thank you so much to Lissie and her team! Thank you for such an amazing service and for being apart of our big day! We couldn't have asked for a better team! Lots of love, Amy and Mike x Lauren Jeffries2024-10-25 I hired near and far mobile bar for my wedding and very quickly realised I had made an excellent choice. They were willing to go above and beyond to help with the day from fluffing my dress just before I walked down the aisle, visiting our Photo Booth to get the party vibe going and providing the best cocktails I have ever seen and tasted! They went down an absolute treat with guests who are still taking about them now! The bar staff were super friendly and guests were served quickly and efficiently at the bar. The bar itself looks professional, clean and pretty and fitted in perfectly at my venue. Thank you for your professional, efficient, friendly services, it’s much appreciated Dahlia Hill2024-10-24 As a Wedding Planner, suppliers are part of your extended team & these guys were amazing !

Nothing was too much trouble, they all had an eye for detail & were a true professional hospitality crew. It was great working with you & your team, you are a friendly, professional bunch of people, who understand weddings only go well if we all pull together. You guys went above & beyond ! Hannah Marshall2024-08-28 Lissie and her team did such an outstanding job for our wedding, we couldn't be happier! Throughout the planning process Lissie was attentive and really listened to what we wanted. She was so patient, putting up with our many questions and changing our minds, and she was flexible with what drinks we could order to make sure we got all our favourites. She helped us to plan how the bar service would run, using her expertise to make sure we thought of everything and coming up with great ideas to ensure everything worked smoothly. We talked so much in the lead up and she was so excited for us that she felt like a friend on the day. On the day the Clever Mike Bar looked absolutely brilliant and really set the scene we wanted for our cocktail hour; the cocktails were an absolute hit with all our guests! They also decorated the main bar area which looked great, and made such a difference. The drinks were absolutely delicious - they really know their stuff! The service was super lovely and professional and they served everything very quickly (even with the many baby Guinnesses that were ordered!). Lissie made a point to bring our favourite drinks to us when she noticed we were without one, which was a really lovely touch and allowed us to enjoy the day, dancing and speaking to our guests. Throughout the whole process Lissie was responsive, friendly and passionate about providing a first class bar service; we firmly believe that Near & Far are the best at what they do! Kayleigh Taylor2024-08-28 We had near or far bar at our event on Sunday and they was amazing. It was the perfect addition to our after wedding party. Thankyou so much, such a brilliant idea & the cocktails a are lush!!! Will recommend to everyone xx Louise Nelson2024-08-12 Everything about Near and Far Mobile Bar is top quality. Hiring them for my Hen Party was the best idea and everyone absolutely loved them. The bar looked amazing, the cocktails were delicious and Matt and Jess were so friendly they just blended in with the evening atmosphere.
