Bar accessories are essential tools for efficient drink preparation and service at any event. Expo Hire supplies these items to event organisers, caterers, and venues creating temporary bars. This category includes everything from professional cocktail shakers to bottle coolers.
Expo Hire provides the tools required for crafting drinks and ensuring accurate measures. Our range includes cocktail shakers, such as Cobbler shakers and Boston shakers, alongside jiggers in standard 25ml and 50ml measures. We also supply muddlers for crushing fruit and herbs, along with strainers to separate ice and solids from prepared drinks. Bar caddies help organise straws, stirrers, and napkins, while bottle pourers ensure controlled dispensing of spirits. For quick and precise serving, we offer bar optics, typically in 25ml and 50ml sizes, to fit standard bottles.
Maintaining drink temperature and efficient service is key for any bar operation. Expo Hire offers various ice buckets suitable for individual bottles or larger quantities of ice. Our single bottle ice buckets are ideal for table service, keeping a wine or champagne bottle chilled. For larger events, choose from bigger ice buckets designed to hold multiple bottles or bulk ice. Wine coolers are also available to maintain the serving temperature of bottled wine. These items assist in keeping beverages at their optimal temperature throughout the event.
When planning your bar setup, consider the number of bar stations and the types of drinks you will serve. For cocktail-focused bars, ensure enough shakers, jiggers, and muddlers are available to avoid bottlenecks during busy periods. For every three to four bottles of spirits, one optic is typically sufficient. Ice buckets should be allocated based on how many bottles require chilling at tables, or for general ice supply at each bar. Review each product page for specific dimensions and capacities to ensure they meet your operational requirements.
