Seamless Planning from Booking to Last Call
How It Works
1. Check Availability & Get a Quote
Fill out our inquiry form or send an email to info@athensontap.com with your event details, including date of event, guest count, rental duration, location, and services needed. We’ll help you decide on a service package that meets your vision and provide you with a custom quote.
2. Order Your Alcohol
You choose your beverages, and we’ll help calculate the right amount based on your headcount and drink preferences. Once you have ordered and paid for your drinks, we handle the logistics from pickup to delivery so everything is ready to go the day of your event.
3. Event Day – We Set Up & Serve
Your AOT Logistics Specialist arrives at least an hour before your event to set up the bar, stock the drinks, and ensure everything runs smoothly. Whether you’ve selected a service package fit for a small or large gathering, we’ll have everything prepared for an unforgettable bar rental experience no matter the party size.
4. Enjoy Your Event
With cold drinks flowing on tap served by our certified bartender(s) and a professional mobile bar setup, your guests will have a top-tier experience. Need a TV for a game, slideshow, or branding? We’ve got that covered too!
5. Breakdown & Cleanup
Once your event wraps up, your Logistics Specialist handles cleanup and breakdown, ensuring no mess is left behind. If there’s leftover alcohol, we can either return it to the store or leave it with you—whatever works best.

No, but we handle the entire pickup and delivery process. You place and purchase your beverage order with your preferred liquor store, and we’ll take care of the rest. We can also help estimate how much alcohol you’ll need based on your event size.
Georgia state law requires that mobile bar trailers, even those that are dry-hire (meaning the client provides their own alcohol), must comply with several regulations related to the sale and consumption of alcohol. These regulations ensure that alcohol is legally and responsibly managed. Because we are a dry-hire rental model, the customer (or the event host) is generally required to purchase alcohol legally through a licensed distributor or retailer. AOT staff can assist in calculating the quantity needed but cannot supply the alcohol. We can however serve the alcohol you purchase if you choose to hire one of our licensed bartenders for your event. -
We require all rental packages to include a certified bartender. For larger parties we recommend a second bartender to help with flow and to avoid crowding at the bar area. We have found that having a certified bartender allows for the best bar experience and avoids any potential issues for the host that may come with guests serving themselves from the taps. All rentals also come with our on-site Logistics Specialist. If you prefer to have two professional bartenders, we can provide an additional bartender for an additional fee.
