So How Does This Work?

Runaway Bar is a mobile beverage service for weddings, parties and corporate events.

We provide a full-service beverage experience, which includes rental of our super chic Piaggio Ape six-tap truck, as well as TIPS-certified bartenders to serve up your libations at any open-bar event.

Or, if your venue or caterer has the right insurance, a liquor license and professional staff to run our bar, we are happy to rent them our Ape tap truck to use for your event. Just have them get in touch.

Runaway Bar can service up to six different beverages through our tap system - cocktails, beer, wine, cider, mocktails, even cold brew coffee. Runaway Bar does not carry a liquor license and therefore we can serve, but not sell you (or your guests) alcohol directly. We carry general and liquor liability coverage. We will assist you with every detail of purchasing kegs and alcohol, but the invoice for booze will need to be paid directly by you, as the host. The good news is that you won’t be paying a mark-up on alcohol!

What Is A Tap System?

Runaway Bar is equipped to handle up to six different kegs simultaneously, so you can offer a variety of beverages. You will be surprised what you can tap from a keg. Beer and cider, of course, but more and more providers are offering wine and Prosecco in kegs. Cocktails on tap is our specialty. We will work with you to create the perfect cocktail menu for your event. Kegged cocktails look beautiful and are consistent from drink to drink. Pouring from a keg also means less time waiting in line for your guests. Of course, we are happy to serve any additional bottled beverages of your choice.

What Are The Technical Requirements?

Runaway Bar is a petite Piaggio Apé 3-wheeled truck measuring approximately 10.5 feet long by 6 feet wide. We can go just about anywhere, but need a flat parking area to pour from. We are self-contained with battery operated lighting and ice cooling systems.

Can I Do a Cash Bar?

Runaway Bar’s full-service package, which includes a bartender, is only available for open bar scenarios. A cash bar requires a venue or caterer with a liquor license. We are happy to rent Runaway Bar as a “dry hire” to insured and licensed industry professionals and let them staff it.
