Question 2

Where are you located and how far will you travel for an event?

Accepted Answer

We are located in Wells, ME and any event within 15 miles of 04090 has free delivery. Outside of 15 miles we charge $2 a mile up to 150 miles. Beyond 150 miles we require a few more details so please inquire but do not let this deter you; we love a good road trip!

Question 3

Can we book you for an event not located in Maine?

Accepted Answer

Yes! A few details may change but largely the process is not affected. Our liquor license is only valid within the state of Maine so our services become dry hire, meaning we cannot provide alcohol. Instead we provide you with a shopping list for alcohol based on your preferences, guest count and bar duration.

We require that the alcohol purchased for your event is purchased within the state that the event will be taking place.

Question 4

How big is this thing anyway?

Accepted Answer

Great question, having a combined bar and lounge requires quite a bit of space. Our Airstream is about 30 feet long, 9 feet wide and 9’6” tall which means we need at least 45 feet to back into the right spot for your event. If you have any questions about spacing and location we would be happy to come check out your location within 30 miles of 04090.

Question 5

What are the limiting restrictions for location set up?

Accepted Answer

We require a pretty flat area to set up on, no more than a 5 degree pitch. We also need to be able to maneuver into the final location that you’d like us to set up at. This means no tight corners and atleast 9’6” of height clearance from trees and overhangs. Additonally our serving window and lounge entrance is on the passenger side.

If you have questions or are concerned that your situation is a close call, please reach out and we would be happy to take a closer look.

Question 6

Do you require a power hook up?

Accepted Answer

Having access to a standard 110V outlet is very convenient and will go quite far in making things easier for your event. However, we can provide a quiet generator for an added cost.

Question 7

Do you have a liquor license?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We are a full service mobile bar within the state of Maine meaning we hold a catering liquor license and can provide beer, wine and liquor for your event. This combined with liquor liability insurance means that we are covered from all angles to handle whatever bar package you are looking for. Simply put, once you're booked we'll handle all the heavy lifting! 😉

Question 8

Can you help us with planning our bar menu and beverage service?

Accepted Answer

Yes of course! This is where we shine, after all we are a cocktail club! We’ve been planning event bars for years. Let’s work together to make your event exactly what you are imagining.

Question 9

Our venue has a liquor license, can you serve their alcohol?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately our bartenders cannot serve the venue’s alcohol, but if you’d like to use the venue's bartenders to serve their alcohol we can arrange to rent you our trailer at an hourly rental rate.

Question 10

What type of events do you serve?

Accepted Answer

Although weddings are our most popular, we can serve anything you can imagine! Birthdays, anniversaries, lobster bakes, corporate events; you dream it and we can make almost anything happen.

Question 11

How far out do you book and should we book early?

Accepted Answer

Yes you should book with us as soon as possible as we are already booking 2026, 2027 and beyond!

Question 12

How much does renting the Tin Can Cocktail Club Cost?

Accepted Answer

The simple answer here is every event differs greatly, but on average we find that the typical event runs around $2,500.

The not so short answer is the final bill depends on a number of factors including: bar duration, package selection, guest count, location and beverage preferences.

We suggest heading over to our contact page and fill out the prompted questions so we can get a better feel for what it is exactly you are looking for. We will then get back to you as soon as possible with any further questions, a pricing guide and quote if necessary.

Question 13

We are serious about booking, what are the next steps we should take?

Accepted Answer

We are very excited to hear this! If you haven't contacted us already send us an email to info@tincan-mobilebar.com  and we will get the ball rolling on securing your date!

Question 14

What is the payment process once we’ve decided to book our event?

Accepted Answer

In order to secure your date we require a $500 deposit, should you decide to cancel your event this deposit is non refundable. 30 days prior to your event 50% of the total bill will be due along with the final guest count, the remaining balance will be due the day of your event.

For events booked within 30 days, 50% of the bill will be due up front with the remaining balance due the day of the event.
