The Best Bar
Shirley and the Harrys tipsy mare team were amazing. The friendliest team I have ever experienced and the perfect addition to our wedding day. The care that Shirley gave was amazing, she met up with us at the venue before the event to go through drink options, check out the space and chat through the vision for the day. I was so happy with the options for drinks, the prices and the team itself they were incredible. Really made us feel special on the wedding day.
Amazing mobile bar for weddings!
We used Harry's Tipsy Mare for our wedding in June and we really can not thank Shirley and her team enough. From the first contact, Shirley was so approachable and helpful and communication was easy throughout the whole planning process. We were able to fully customise the bar options to have our favourite drinks which was great for us. Shirley and her team also did our welcome drinks and reception drinks so were on site the whole day. Shirley went above and beyond for us and truly was instrumental to the smooth running of our day! Shirley even made sure to pass me a welcome drink through the window so I didn't have to miss out! No detail was overlooked and the small touches that Shirley and her team provided really made all the difference! The horsebox bar was so lovely and really fit in well with our wedding venue, all of our guests loved it! We could not recommend Shirley and her team enough to anyone who is looking to hire a mobile bar!

We hired Harry’s Tipsy Mare for our wedding and if I could give more stars then I would. I cannot thank Shirley and her team enough. From the booking process two years in advance, to the day of the wedding I could not fault their whole team. Communication from the very beginning was fantastic which is exactly what a nervous bride needs! The day before during preparations and the day of, all of the team could not do enough and went so far above and beyond. Doing things beyond their role, just to make our day even more special. Welcome drinks provided were plentiful and lasted so much longer than we thought. There was a good range of drinks behind the bar for fair prices and the cocktails tasted amazing! The team tidied away so seamlessly at the end of the night also. I really could not recommend this bar and its team enough! Thank you!

This place is a treasure
This place is a treasure. Brilliant atmosphere, friendly staff and fantastic wine and craft ale. The food is so fresh and tasty and I love that it is all locally produced. Great to be able to taste a little of the wine before buying a glass, brilliant concept. Air conditioning was a treat too with 35 degrees outside!
Such an amazing bar
Such an amazing bar! Staff were all so lovely and our guests had nothing but positive things to say about them all. Highly recommend Shirley and her colleagues for anyone needing a bar for an event/wedding. Prices were amazing and personalisation of the drinks menu was a big plus! Thank you to Shirley and her team for their part in our Big Day! Sam and Frances

We hired Harry’s Tipsy Mare for our wedding.
We hired Harry’s Tipsy Mare for our wedding reception and the team were incredible. The bar looked beautiful in the outside courtyard, where we had it set up. The team were efficient, friendly and funny, really creating a wonderful, relaxed, fun environment. The drink selection was perfect and prices were extremely reasonable. We had innumerable compliments from our guests. Shirley was so helpful throughout the planning process, which reduced stress levels for me in the lead up to the big day (very important). We are so grateful to the whole Tipsy Mare team for making our wedding day so wholesome and special. A truly lovely bunch.

Recommended for any event
The flexibilty of the planning and options were so relaxed. Bought some drinks for guests on arrival and Shirley served welcome drinks then table wine. Cash bar in the evening which was very reasonably priced. I would recommend Harrys Tipsy Mare for any event. Ours was a wedding with 100 guests.
Absolute perfection in an event bar service
We chose Shirley to provide the bar service for our wedding reception, held at our home in an old tithe barn. Although Shirley has a beautiful vintage Rice horse trailer bar, we used a rustic bar built by our family using oak from our farm. Shirley was fantastic in working with us to bring our vision to life and adapt everything to suit our setup.
Nothing was too much trouble. We wanted draught Guinness rather than cans, which she was very happy to organise, and we also preferred proper glassware over plastic — all of which was accommodated without hesitation.
The bar looked stunning on the day and ran seamlessly throughout the event. Shirley was friendly, professional, and a real pleasure to work with.
We’ve already booked her again for future fundraising events and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone planning an event.

Shirley was a great addition to our event. She offered great value for money, great service, and was extremely friendly and responsive! Thanks and we will definitely be booking you in again :)
Highly recommended!
We had a really great experience with Harry's Tipsy Mare providing hot drinks and refreshments at our Saturday public family event, 3 weeks in a row. Shirley and her team were really punctual, were unfazed by the freezing temperatures and the first week when we had to figure out how to make the extension cable work from an unplanned location. The visitors spoke highly of the hot drinks and the refreshments (the bacon and sausage rolls were a particular hit!), and the prices were really reasonable too. Communication before the events was also really good. Highly recommended for any events you might have!

Harry’s Tipsy Mare’s coffee put a smile on my face from the very first sip. The trailer conversion gives it such a unique, cosy charm, and it really stands out. The two ladies who work there are absolutely lovely—so friendly and welcoming. You can tell they genuinely care about what they do and about their customers. Great coffee, great service, and a really nice atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back.

We booked HTM for an open day at our new veterinary practice - communication was great and everything went very smoothly. The coffee went down really well and was delicious! We will definitely approach again for future events. Thank you!
5 ⭐️’s!
Thank you to Shirley and the Harry’s Tipsy Mare team! Such a great addition to a 60th surprise party — lovely people, great drinks and at a great price.
The staff are genuinely lovely and I would recommend for any event! Great communication and an even better set up.

A really lovely company to use
A really lovely company to use. Staff were friendly, efficient and we were pleased to have them at our wedding. We were a little last minute but were never made to feel like a burden. Everything that we wanted was done with ease and without annoyance. The set up and down was great, breezed in and out like they had been there all day. Would highly recommend for any function due to the friendliness, professionalism and the price. Thank you very much for all your help from start to finish.

Booking Harrys Tipsy Mare was single-handedly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. The team arrived early to set up, were incredibly attentive throughout the day to all our guests and myself and my husband. They even stepped in to help and support other vendors with technical issue! The process was made so so easy by the wonderful Shirley who was just great to work with in both the planning and the lead up to the wedding and on the day itself. I could not recommend more highly and cannot wait for the next event we have so that we can see the team again!

Harry's Tipsy Mare team is where I go for a wonderful coffee with friendly service and a heart centred chat on Saturday mornings when they are serving the Wantage market community.
Sets me up nicely for the day. Thank you.
