Every event deserves the peace of mind that comes with working with professionals.

Our team is fully insured and staffed with TIPS certified bartenders, so you can be assured your special event is balanced with care, safety and lawful service.

Meet the Fleet: Mobile Bars & Minis

Our fleet isn’t just portable — each bar has a story, a style, and a flair all its own. From big personalities to pint-sized charmers, The Parlor’s collection of mobile bars and minis makes every event more memorable.

Ruby — The Showstopper

Born in a speakeasy (or so she claims), Ruby loves serving under the stars with cocktails as glamorous as her glow. She’s tall, dramatic, and insists on the spotlight — but one sip and you’ll see why she’s worth it.

Claude — The Charmer

With blue stainless steel and butcher-block good looks, Claude is all about the bubbly. Champagne, spritzers, sparkling wines — he’s happiest when he’s pouring something effervescent. Très chic, très charming.

Pippin — The Sleek Minimalist

Don’t let his size fool you — Pippin’s small frame is packed with style. Sleek, selective, and always on trend, he keeps it focused: no random slingin’, just crafted experiences that guests remember.

Rhodes Martin — The Enigma

Mysterious, a little stubborn, and not ready to share all his secrets just yet. He’s got stories in the making — and he’ll be stepping fully into the spotlight soon.

The Minis

Small but mighty, our Minis add charm, character, and a touch of whimsy to any event. Perfect as sidekicks or standalone features, they’re the little details your guests won’t forget.

Sophie — The Sweetheart

Bright, cheery, and always ready with fresh garnishes.

Rose — The Cigar Queen

Loves cigars, scandals, and whispered conversations.

Esmeralda — The Bohemian Spirit

Hand painted, vibrant, and ready to share her mystical side.

Clients Love Us

“Michaela and her team at Pouring Parlor were amazing to work with for a private event in Westcliffe. Michaela created delicious signature drink cocktails, handled a demanding bar with expertise and went above and beyond to provide the client with the best experience possible. I highly recommend Pouring Parlor for your next event!”

The Craboard Quints

Included in most packages, the Quintuplets are the original Parlor pack-n-pour bars designed to go everywhere! They give each event a great look and impressive function for our bartenders to work from with elevated surfaces, room to craft and pour, and nooks and space for supplies.

Mixology & Craft

At The Parlor, cocktails aren’t just poured — they’re crafted. Every sip begins with our handmade elixirs, balanced with fresh ingredients, and finished with just the right flair. We believe great drinks tell a story, and we’re here to help that story be yours.

Handmade Mixers

We squeeze, infuse, or emulsify every elixir by hand. Think raspberry rose, peach basil, vanilla chai — all made fresh for your event. No pre-mixed off-the-shelf shortcuts, just mixers crafted to shine on their own or play beautifully with spirits.

Signature & Seasonal Sips

Classics, with a Parlor twist. From a French 75 with candied lemon to a cozy fall spiced cider, our menus shift with the seasons so your guests always get something fresh, surprising, and always imaginative.

Spirit-Free, Not Second-Best

We believe words matter; the word “mocktail” makes us cringe. We will never mock anyone; there is nothing fake about what we serve. Every elixir we create can be served spirit-free — so whether it’s by choice, age, or health, everyone gets a drink worth raising in a toast. Because inclusive hospitality is just good hospitality.

Creation Stations

Drinks are more fun when guests get to play. Our Creation Stations are bartender-guided experiences where every sip is a story in the making. Choose a spirit (or spirit-free base), layer on fresh elixirs, and finish with a garnish that matches your mood. It’s part mixology, part entertainment — and fully unforgettable. Oh, and yes, each station offers a Spirit-Free option!

Old Fashioned

Classic never goes out of style. From fruit-forward to smokey; gentle to bold — it’s up to you.  Stirred slow, sipped smooth.

Margarita & Paloma

Sunshine in a glass. Jazzy rim, classic or new, spirits to ponder. Paloma – a playful cousin — grapefruit, bubbles, and a little sass.

Fizz & Tonic

Get your fizz on with elixirs, herbs, and effervescent delights - then let your bubbly spirits soar as you dance the night away.

Spritz

Born in Italy, made playful at The Parlor. Bubbly and bright — a sparkling crowd-pleaser that feels fancy without trying too hard.

Lemonade

Sweet, tart, nostalgic. Spiked or sparkling, lemonade is the station that takes everyone back to their first sip of summer.

Cocoa & Cider

Cold nights call for cozy mugs. Rich cocoa or spiced cider with a swirl of Parlor foam and toppings to delight. Creative comfort in every cup.

Why Choose The Parlor

Because every event deserves more than “just a bar.” At The Parlor, we combine professionalism, creativity, and a guest-first philosophy to make sure what’s in the glass matches the magic of your story.

5-Star Service

From first call to last call, we’re known for service that goes above and beyond. Professional, polished, and always personal.

Certified & Insured

Our bartenders are TIPS certified and fully insured, so you can relax knowing your event is in the safest of hands.

Craft at Its Core

Handmade mixers, signature sips, and inclusive spirit-free options — everything we pour is created with care, balance, and intention.
