Gert Lush Event Bars holds necessary personal licence to authorise the sale of alcohol. 

If the place you are holding your event has a premises licence you won't need to do anything.

If the place you are holding your event doesn't have a premises licence, a temporary event notice will be needed. Here at Gert Lush Event Bars we want to make this process as easy as possible for you so we will apply for this for you.

Simply yes we do. 

There may be some restrictions on this depending on mobile signal in the location of your event as mobile signals in Devon are notoriously poor in some areas but generally this shouldn't be a problem.

As we are classified as a catering business we are registered with environmental health have a 5 star rating. Our staff have undertaken food hygiene and safety training too. 

We are fully insured with public, product and employee liability insurance to the value of £5 million.

We don't feel its fair to an event organiser or bride & groom to set a minimum spend that you then have to worry about during your special day however if the number of guests is below 100 we may need to ensure we cover our costs, please ask.

Yes if you need a risk assessment or other health and safety documents we can provide these. Please advise us of your requirements when booking. 

We are based near Exeter and cover Cornwall, Devon, Dorset and Somerset mainly as we try to keep our carbon footprint as low as possible. However, if your event is further afield we may still be able to help, get in touch we're keen to help if we can.

Because our horsebox mobile bar is fully kitted out, we don't need much setup time, we would normally require two to three hours. 

If you are hiring our indoor pop up bar we would need two to three hours to assemble the equipment. The size of the pop up event bar depends on how you would like it to be setup, either as 1 long bar of 12ft or as a left or right hand corner bar (5ft each side with 2ft joiner). 

As part of offering our services we ask for exclusivity of drinks but we can set up and start serving after the drinks you wish to provide yourselves. This is due to licensing laws and our insurance, so you would not normally be able to provide your own drinks while the bar is open.

We provide a wide range of drinks and will accommodate special requests for drinks so most clients are happy that we supply everything they need for a fantastic event!
