Savannah Bar Carts team wants to bring your drink to you

Event hosts save money and contain bar service to protect guests.

One thing the hospitality industry has mastered over the roller-coaster experience of the past 18 months: how to adapt.

Despite constantly evolving health guidelines, the good times have continued at bars, restaurants, and event venues. At a time when many are ready to social distance, a new Savannah business can bring the party right to you.

Enter: Savannah Bar Carts.

It’s a new venture is from the owners of Savannah-based, Royal Restrooms.

After years of seeing caterers, bartenders, and themselves struggling with event beverage situations, David and Christy Sauers, along with partner Kelli Sauers-Henderson, created Savannah Bar Carts.

“At the beginning of the pandemic, we began to see the effects COVID-19 was having on the event industry,” said David Sauers. “Rather than having open bars, hosts were containing the service to protect their guests.”

As businesses began to open up again, Sauers noticed weddings and events looked a little different.

Families did not want to pay for a bar set up, tent, and other equipment after they had already endured the expenses of postponed weddings.

The carts can feature beer taps, speed racks for liquor and mixer bottles, and shelving for glasses or cups — all designed with key insights from catering and service professionals.

“Caterers and bartenders love our concept because the trailer can be loaded once, locked down between events, and the contents are kept secure,” Sauers noted. “No hauling coolers from place to place, no set up and breakdown, and one single rental cost.”
