We launched Runaway Bar in 2021 with a vision of bringing a fun, unique and beautiful private bartending service to Southern Maine.

After many years of owning and operating popular restaurants in the big city, we knew exactly what we wanted Runaway to be - a stylish bar experience with genuinely friendly staff offering beautiful, tasty cocktails made with fresh ingredients, and custom details that make every event feel elevated.

We love planning a good party and even more, we love executing a fun time that takes the stress off the host.

The original Runaway is an Italian Piaggio Ape (pronounced ah-pay) that we shipped to Maine and customized for bar service. She is small but mighty and can go just about anywhere, inside or out, to service up to 150 guests. In 2026 we also introduced Runaway Bar Piccolina, a two-tap bar that is perfect for smaller parties (up to 75 guests) with or without a bartender.

Whether it’s a backyard wedding with close family and friends or a black tie affair, Runaway Bar makes any special occasion memorable with her inimitable style.
