Bartender talking a guest through the menu at The Apothecary — ℞ bar consultancy · openings & refits

Bar consultancy

Opening a bar, or giving yours a refresh? We've done it ourselves.

We help with the parts that decide whether a bar works: the layout behind the counter, what to stock and where to buy it, and a team that knows what it's doing. We can step in for a single job or stay with you from first plans to opening night.

What's included

New bar openings, from first plans to opening night
Refurbishments, with a bar layout that copes on a busy night
Stock lists and supplier setup, so you order what sells
Staff training on technique, speed and service

Good to know.

The questions we hear most. Anything else, just ask in the form below.

How much do your services cost?

Every job is different, so we quote each one separately. Tell us the date, the rough guest count and what you have in mind, and we'll send you a clear price.

What do you need from us for outside catering?

A space for the bar, a rough guest count and the timings. We'll ask about access, power and water when we plan the details with you.

Can you train the team we already have?

Yes. Training can be part of a bigger consultancy project or booked on its own, and it works best on your own bar with your own menu.

Can we just order ready-to-drink cocktails?

Yes. Tell us roughly how many drinks you need and when, and we'll suggest cocktails that bottle or batch well.

How far ahead should we get in touch?

As early as you can, especially for weekends and the summer. Short notice is still worth a message, so ask anyway.

Tell us what
you need.

A few lines is plenty to start. We'll come back to you with questions, ideas or a price.

What happens next
