Questions answered early
The details that usually slow people down.
Does a callback mean I am booked?
Absolutely not. A callback means you have questions, or that you want to know a real person is on the other end. A callback means exactly that: a callback. Nothing is ever booked until the booking is paid for.
Can I get the quote before choosing cocktails?
Yes. The quote starts with the event basics. The cocktail menu comes next, so the drinks can help you decide properly.
Can I change cocktails after booking?
Yes, within the permitted change window. Changes lock five days before the event so shopping lists and rare ingredients do not become a last-minute problem.
Can I schedule a callback after seeing the quote?
Yes. The callback option stays available if you have questions, or if you simply want to know a real person is on the other end of the line.
If the date matters, start with the booking page.
It gives you the fastest honest answer, shows you more of the event before you commit, and keeps the callback option open if you still have questions.
What happens next
You see the event before you decide.
Check the date and times
Enter the event date, guest arrival time, service finish time, address and guest numbers. That is enough to check whether the booking can work before payment details are involved.
See the price and service fit
The system shows the starting figure and whether cocktail makers, bartenders, a mobile bar or an all-in-one package is the sensible fit for the room.
Choose drinks from our menu
Pick from the existing Cocktailhire menu, share it if other people need a say, and keep the event menu visible before committing.
Book online or speak to us first
If everything is clear, book online. If you still have questions, schedule a callback, often just to know a real person is there before you pay.
If your venue asks for public liability, risk assessments or policy documents, the boring page is here: policies, statements and due diligence downloads.
