Backyards, rooftops and venues without a bar all get the same thing: a professional 4 ft. bar setup that looks the part in photos, stocked with coolers, ice, mixers, fresh juices and garnish, and staffed by bartenders who make the drinks in front of your guests.
We deliver it, set it up about an hour before service, run it all night, and take it away — you never touch a cooler.
The bar is the part most people add: 74% of everything we've priced included one.
A gathering in El Portal means about 10 miles across the county for us. We plan the arrival backwards from your start time rather than forwards from ours, which is the entire reason your schedule survives contact with traffic.
This is a tightly packed corner of the county: Miami Shores, Biscayne Park and North Miami are all a short hop away, the nearest under a mile out. For a gathering that usually means shared parking and a load-in that has to be pointed at the right door, so we ask which entrance is ours.
El Portal is a municipality in its own right, which for a gathering mostly shows up as parking and curfew. Tell us what the venue has told you and the setup and breakdown get planned to fit inside it.
What you actually book for a El Portal gathering is a licensed, insured team, a bar that photographs well, and a drinks list built with you rather than handed to you. What you do not book is a stranger who turns up and asks where the ice is.
Pricing a gathering in El Portal starts at $85/hour against a 3-hour minimum, and the wizard below gives you your own number before you talk to anyone. Distance across the county does not move the rate.
If you are comparing options for a gathering in El Portal, price this one first. It takes about as long as reading this paragraph and it hands you a real number to compare against instead of a range.
Yes — staffing scales with the headcount and the bar is built to match. For context, half the bartending quotes we write are for 50 guests or fewer, so a bigger room is a question of more hands and more ice rather than a different service.
Put the guest count and the timeline into the wizard and it prices the staffing for you.
Where the truck can stop, and which door the bar comes through. For a gathering that is usually the whole of it, and knowing it in advance is the difference between a calm setup and a scramble.
We will also ask what surface the bar sits on and whether there is cover, since both change the build.
Yes, on every booking. If your El Portal venue wants a certificate, ask and we will send it across.
The crew is on site about 1 hour before service and dresses to whatever code the gathering calls for.
Always. Bottled water, soft drinks and a proper mocktail or two are part of how we build a gathering menu, not an afterthought bolted on at the end.
Portions are worked out from your total headcount, so nobody is counting cups at the end of the night.
We would rather stay and clear the bar down properly than leave a job half finished, and the crew plans for the evening rather than for the minute.
Anything beyond the booked hours is agreed on the night and charged at the ordinary hourly rate.
Price it here, then hold the date with a 25% deposit. The balance falls due 48 hours before the gathering.
The deposit is fully refundable until 7 days out, and the date can be moved free of charge up to 48 hours before.

Quick response, great prices, everything delivered was clean and brand new. Easy communication and overall and great experience
We had the pleasure of working with YD Cocktails for a recent corporate event on a yacht, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, the team was professional, friendly, and incredibly attentive to our 50+ guests. We ran into a few scheduling changes and last-minute adjustments on our end, and they were nothing but accommodating throughout the entire process. Their flexibility, communication, and willingness to help made what could have been a stressful situation feel seamless. The cocktails were fantastic, the service was exceptional, and our guests had an amazing experience and the food was phenomenal. We received so many compliments throughout the event. We can't thank the team enough for helping make our event such a success, and we look forward to working with them again in the future. Highly recommend!

I am super happy with the chair rental. You came at the right time and later came to pick up with perfect timing. Everyone was so impressed with your efficiency. I didn't have to get mismatched chairs from everybody's back yard!! I am so appreciative for that. Your price was excellent and I'll try to get some pictures for your website. Once again, thank you . 🙏🏻

The professional 4 ft. bar itself and the bartenders to run it, plus setup and breakdown. Add coolers, ice, mixers, fresh juices and garnish, cups, straws and napkins, water and soft drinks — pick what you need in the quote and we bring it.
Anywhere with a flat spot for the bar: homes, backyards, rooftops, offices, venues and event spaces. We serve events all over Florida, primarily South Florida — from Palm Beach down to the Keys.
74% of the bartending quotes we've priced included a portable bar. The rest had a counter, an island or a venue bar that already worked, and skipped it. It's a line item either way, so if yours works you leave it off and the price drops accordingly.
We specialize in weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, private events, festivals, and more. We can accommodate any occasion where drinks are part of the celebration!
Absolutely! Our highly skilled bartenders can design a cocktail menu that matches your event theme or your personal tastes. We also have our signature cocktails that are sure to be hits at most events.
Absolutely, we can do mocktails as well as other soft drinks & juices if requested.
It takes about a minute — no calls, no waiting.

I will continue to use your services for many years to come. I commend you for running your business with the customer being a priority. Doing business with YD cocktails was a pleasure!
