Founded by Rares Tom Pasare, The Aproned Mixologist & Co was born from a passion for mixology, fine wines and exceptional hospitality. What began as a bespoke bar service for private events in East London has grown into a trusted provider of stylish mobile cocktail and wine experiences.

From intimate home gatherings to large corporate functions, our mission has always been the same — to bring bar-quality cocktails and carefully curated wine selections directly to your event, creating memorable experiences for every guest.

Over the years, we’ve proudly collaborated with talented chefs, boutique wineries and premium suppliers across the UK.

Our collaborations include:

• Chef Lopez Catering – dining and canapé services for private and corporate events • Independent Wineries – sourcing small-production wines from the UK and Europe • Local Artisans & Suppliers – supporting seasonal ingredients and sustainable sourcing

With over 25 years of experience in the hospitality industry, I have held senior leadership roles including Management, Food & Beverage Director and Venue General Manager at renowned London venues such as Bedales at Borough Market, Osteria at the Barbican, Plate Bar & Restaurant at M by Montcalm Hotel, and Solstice Restaurant & Bar at St Paul’s.

Building on this experience, I founded The Aproned Mixologist & Co, creating a mobile bar concept that combines exceptional service, professional mixology and curated wine selections. Our goal is to deliver stylish drinks experiences for weddings, private celebrations and corporate events across London and surrounding areas.

We typically work with couples, private hosts and corporate event planners looking for stylish mobile cocktail and wine bar services. Our clients include weddings, private celebrations, drinks receptions, corporate events, business launches and venue-based or home events across London and surrounding areas.

We offer flexible bar services including pre-paid drinks packages, open bars and cash bars, with both alcoholic and alcohol-free options tailored to each event.
