About Traveling Taps Pnw
Traveling Taps PNW is a female-owned mobile bartending service based in the Pacific Northwest, serving Spokane, the South Sound, and surrounding areas for weddings, corporate events, and private parties. The team runs a 6-tap mobile trailer that can pour anything from beer to prosecco to lemonade, plus a satellite bar and a roster of customer-service-oriented MAST-certified bartenders. Traveling Taps operates as a dry-hire service: clients choose and provide the alcohol, and the team brings drinkware, garnishes, mixers, and juices. The mobile tap trailer holds up to 6 kegs at packages starting at $1,200. The satellite bar can be booked alongside the trailer or as a standalone rental at packages from $650. Bartenders alone are available at $50 per hour. Mocktail Classes are also offered as a separate add-on at $40 per person, with each guest going home with a shaker and recipe cards. The team carries general liability and liquor liability insurance, staffs one bartender per 75 guests by default, and includes the first hour of travel in every rental.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the mobile tap trailer setup like?
The Traveling Taps PNW mobile tap trailer is a custom 6-tap unit that can hold up to 6 different kegs with individual tap handles for each. The taps can pour beer, prosecco, lemonade, kombucha, hard seltzer, or any liquid that comes in a keg. Trailer packages start at $1,200 and the team handles setup and breakdown. The first hour of travel is included.
What about the satellite bar?
The satellite bar is a separate setup that can be booked alongside the mobile tap trailer (handy when an event needs a second pour station) or as a standalone rental with bartenders only. Satellite bar packages start at $650 and include the bar setup and bartending staff. It's a good option for events where the trailer's footprint doesn't fit.
How does the dry-hire model work?
Traveling Taps PNW operates as a dry-hire service, meaning the client chooses and provides the alcohol while the team handles everything else: drinkware, garnishes, mixers, juices, and bartending service. That avoids markup on alcohol and gives hosts full control over which brands and styles their guests see, with Traveling Taps handling the operational side.
Can I book just bartenders?
Yes. The team's roster of MAST-certified bartenders can be booked alone at $50 per hour, with bartender-only service being a popular option for venues that already have a built-in bar. The standard staffing ratio is one bartender per 75 guests, but more can be added on request for high-volume events or specific service needs.
What are the Mocktail Classes?
Mocktail Classes are a $40-per-person add-on or standalone offering. Each guest goes home with a shaker and recipe cards for the beverages crafted during the class. If alcohol is provided, the same class can be turned into a Cocktail Class. It's a fun activity for bachelorette parties, corporate team-building, or showers.
What insurance does Traveling Taps PNW carry?
The team carries annual general liability insurance and liquor liability insurance, which covers the bartending side of events even though the alcohol is sourced by the client. All bartenders are MAST-certified, which is Washington State's responsible-service training program. Insurance documentation can be provided to venues that require it.
