Terms & Conditions

The Outside Bar Company – Fully insured for extra peace of mind.

These terms and conditions form part of a legally binding contract between The Outside Bar Company and the Client.

If the items in these terms and conditions are not met we reserve the right to either withdraw our services or make an additional charge to cover our reasonable costs or losses in revenue.

Supply of beverages:

The Outside Bar Company shall be the sole provider of all beverages at the event unless previously agreed and an additional charge may be applied. It will not be permitted for anyone to consume their own drinks at the event. If guests bring and consume their own drinks whist the bar is open then the deposit is kept.

Deposit for bar services:

A deposit of £150 is payable once we have confirmed the booking and then the payment details will be forwarded to you. Any events cancelled will lose their deposit due to the likely hood of us turning away bookings as there are a limited number of bars we can provide per day.

If the event is for over 80 adults then we do not charge for our services. If the event is for under 80 adults we do have a set up fee.

Bar opening times:

Bar opening times will be subject to approval by the relevant authorities. We can apply for the licence (TEN) on your behalf from the relevant council. We need a minimum of 10 working days to do this and the council charge £21. This amount can be added to the deposit.

Electric power supply:

The client shall ensure a 13amp power supply at or near to the bar location. If this is not possible then we need to arrange for the use of our generator.

Payment for drinks:

All drinks are paid for as sold on the night, with the exception of prepaid drinks packages or prepaid free bars. We do not offer credit facilities and will not run a tab type bar unless monies have been paid prior to the event or an agreement has been drawn up. All pre-paid bars must have cleared payment before the event.

No Licences will be applied for if the deposit has not been received, and our offer of service will therefore be withdrawn. This is unless we have specifically agreed otherwise.

The client shall ensure sufficient time is available to access the venue prior to the start of the event to unload and prepare equipment and stock. The Client shall also ensure sufficient time between the closing of the bar and having to vacate the venue to enable all goods and equipment to be dismantled, removed and loaded into waiting vehicles.

Vehicle parking:

There must be suitable access to the site with parking for a large van.
A secure parking spot for The Outside Bar Company’s vehicles should be made available next to the venue access point to ensure availability of additional stock and to facilitate easy loading and unloading.
All of our bars work under The Licensing Act 2003. Our staff are instructed to operate within these rules.

Please note the following:

1) No alcohol will be sold to anyone under the age of 18, or who appears to be so and cannot prove otherwise. If your event includes guests around the age of 18, please ask them to bring ID.

2) It is an offence to sell or supply or supply alcohol to anyone under the age of 18. If we suspect that anyone is doing so, service from that person will be withdrawn. If we see anyone we know to be under-age drinking alcohol that has been purchased from us, we confiscate the drink or ask you to do so.

3) We will not serve anyone who is excessively drunk, or who is abusive or threatening to staff or other customers or guests.

4) If guests bring and consume their own drinks whilst the bar is in operation the deposit will be witheld.
