Questions
Does my venue allow outside bartenders?
Many Chicago-area venues and most private properties do. Check your contract for a "BYOB" or "outside bar service" clause, and send it to us if you're not sure.
Can you serve beer and wine too?
Yes. We pour whatever you buy, and we'll add beer and wine to your shopping list.
