About Cork & Canter

Cork & Canter is a unique mobile bar experience that brings expertly crafted drinks directly to your event, wherever you are. Whether you're hosting a garden party, wedding, corporate gathering, or a cosy indoor celebration, we provide a fully stocked and beautifully presented bar that elevates any occasion.

We offer three mobile bar options to suit your event: our charming horsebox bar, perfect for outdoor and festival-style events; our sleek Pop-up bar, ideal for garden parties and versatile enough to fit into smaller indoor spaces; and our indoor bar, great for marquees and larger corporate events, complete with built-in draught beer pumps. Each bar offers a completely bespoke experience, tailored entirely to you.

Cork & Canter, we pride ourselves on attention to detail, professional service, and creating an experience that feels personal, stylish, and effortlessly enjoyable. Whether you're planning a large celebration or an intimate gathering, Cork & Canter brings the bar to you, making every moment memorable.

Our Story

Cork & Canter started with a horsebox - literally. It used to be my horse trailer, back when I was competing. Once I stopped competing, I was left with a trailer that wasn't being used, so I took the opportunity to turn it into something new, and Cork & Canter was born.

I'm Laura, and I come from a farming family based in Baldock, Hertfordshire, so that background has always been part of who I am - it felt natural to bring that into the business too. I wanted to build a bar that reflected British heritage, with green and gold detailing, creating something upmarket that would add to an event aesthetically as well as behind the bar. What began as one converted horsebox has grown into something built around versatility and attention to detail - from our signature horsebox bar and sleek Pop-up bar, to our indoor bar for marquees and larger events. We're also proud to be an official Hawkstone stockist.

What inspires me most is being part of people's biggest moments - weddings, celebrations, parties that guests remember for years. There's nothing better than seeing a bar we've built become the heart of someone's event, with drinks that are as carefully thought through as everything else on the day. That personal touch, paired with genuinely professional service, is what Cork & Canter is all about.

Our Team

Cork & Canter is run by me, Laura - founder and the face behind the bar on most events. Alongside me, I'm supported by Maisie and Emma, our bar staff, who help serve and look after guests on the night, making sure every drink is crafted with care and every guest feels welcomed.

Together, we're passionate about creating a genuinely warm, professional experience for every client - whether that's helping you plan the perfect drinks menu, handling the licensing, or making sure your event runs smoothly from start to finish. We take pride in getting the details right, so you can relax and enjoy your event knowing it's in safe hands.

Typical Clients

We work with a wide range of clients, but most of our events fall into a few key categories: weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, anniversaries, baby showers and private celebrations. Whether it's an intimate garden gathering or a large marquee event, we tailor our bar offering to suit the occasion and the space available.

Our clients tend to want more than just a drinks station - they're looking for a bar that adds to the atmosphere and feel of their event, with a personal, professional touch. We work closely with couples planning their wedding day, event planners organising corporate functions, and hosts celebrating milestone occasions who want their bar to be something guests remember.

We're based in Baldock, Hertfordshire, and cover a wide area including London, Essex, Suffolk, Hertfordshire, Northamptonshire and Cambridgeshire, so our clients range from local celebrations to events further afield.

Wonderful pop up bar for our garden party

We managed to secure Laura only 3 weeks before my husband and I’s 40th birthday event which was a very lucky turn of events! She was organised, clear in communication and on the day her and an additional staff member worked tirelessly to ensure our guests had a great time! She is warm and friendly so fitted right in which was important when we were hosting people at our own house in the garden. I would definitely recommend her and will be keeping in touch for the future

Great communication and great with our guests!

Laura was always easy to contact in the lead up to the event and always responded to any queries I had. On the day, they arrived on time and the range of drinks covered all my guests requirements. It was great that I could enjoy hosting the party without worrying about topping up drinks and clearing away empties! Very professional service and would absolutely use Gin Box again!
