Bar rental in Los Angeles is not a drop-off business — at least not the way we run it. When you rent a bar from La Barra Co. in Los Angeles, you get a complete turnkey setup brought to your venue: the portable bar unit itself, one to three RBS-certified bartenders, the full ice program, premium mixers and sodas, glassware, bar tools, fresh-cut citrus and garnish, a printed cocktail menu, RBS certification (California ABC compliant), and complete setup and teardown. Rent a mobile bar in LA with us and the only thing you buy separately is the alcohol, at retail, in your own name. That is why our bar rental in Los Angeles costs less than a caterer's bar package and still shows up as a finished, licensed, RBS-certified setup — not a stack of folding tables and a cooler.
Every Los Angeles booking is all-inclusive. One price covers the portable bar and its styling, full glassware, the complete ice program, premium mixers and sodas, fresh-cut garnish, a printed cocktail menu, RBS-certified and California ABC compliant bartenders, and full setup and breakdown. The only thing you buy separately is the alcohol, at retail, in your own name — which is legal in California, materially cheaper than a caterer's bar package, and means unopened bottles go back to the store.
Our LA calendar splits roughly in half. Weddings and private celebrations run the Westside and the beach cities — Malibu, Bel Air, Brentwood, Santa Monica, Manhattan, Hermosa and Redondo — where the venue is usually somebody's home or a bluff with a view and no infrastructure. The corporate half concentrates in Century City, Downtown, Culver City and El Segundo, where the work is post-conference receptions, firm holiday parties, product launches, board dinners and client entertainment inside office towers and campuses that need a compliance documentation before they need a bartender. We handle the paperwork side of that without being asked.
Working across LA County means load-in is the real job. Downtown means freight elevators, booked docks and building management. Malibu and the canyons mean narrow driveways and no parking. Studio lots mean drive-on passes and badge registration. Beach cities mean wind, sand and permits. We plan all of it in the week before the event rather than discovering it on the day, and we quote travel within LA County as included so the number you are given is the number you pay.
All-inclusive pricing. You supply the alcohol at retail; we bring everything else. Gratuity is appreciated but never required and never added to your invoice.
These are founding client rates — deliberately below what established Southern California bar services charge, because we are building our calendar right now. Request your exact number in under a minute.
The only thing you buy separately is the alcohol — at retail, in your name, with unopened bottles returnable at most California stores. That is the entire reason our clients spend less than they would on a caterer's bar package.

No. California RBS licensing rules mean every bar rental we send out includes RBS-certified bartenders. We cannot drop off a bar and leave guests to self-serve — that would void our California ABC compliance policy and the state's RBS requirement. Bartender + bar always travel together.
