Mobile Bartending in Baltimore,
Poured by Stem & Vine

Your venue, our bar team. The same pours that fill our rooms on Charles Street, set up wherever the night is happening.

How it works

We bring the bar to your venue

Booked a hall, a gallery, a backyard, or a room at Collective Spaces? Tell us where, and we'll handle the pouring.

Mobile bartending is the out-of-house side of Stem & Vine. You pick a per-guest package, we arrive with the bar tools, ice, mixers, and garnishes, and your guests get the drink program our own bar is known for, including selections from Black-owned and women-owned makers.

Pricing comes in two pieces: the package covers what your guests drink, and the bartender fee covers who pours it, staffed by guest count. Both are published to the dollar, so the whole bar fits in your budget before we ever talk.

Hosting in our building instead? Our three rentable spaces in downtown Baltimore come with the bar built in.
