Luxury Mobile Bartending & Cocktail Catering in Philadelphia
Spirit Forward is a Philadelphia based craft cocktail mixology team. We provide the high end drink-making experience that you might enjoy at your favorite cocktail bar or speakeasy, and we bring it to your party, your wedding, your office, or your backyard.
We're forever living in Les Années Folles, a euphoric time in 1920's Paris when creativity, style and cocktails coalesced into a decade of lavish fun, and we're here to bring that same energy and romance back to bartending for unforgettable parties.

How it works, in one breath
You provide the alcohol. Pennsylvania requires it, and good news is, it keeps the budget streamlined. We do everything else: the custom menu, every ingredient made fresh in house, the ice, the bar, the bartenders, and the cleanup. All we need is a space and a sink.

Why people come back
Roughly two hundred bars since 2014, from a backyard in Phoenixville to the rooftop of the Cira Center. Brand work for Casamigos, Patrón, Bacardi, BetMGM, McLaren, Louis Vuitton, and Estée Lauder. Weddings at The Deacon, Terrain Gardens, Appleford Estate, and Billy Penn Studios. An office campus in Chesterbrook that has us back virtually every year.
Our team consists of working bartenders in and around the Philadelphia area, so it is like bringing a high end happy hour directly to you. That's the secret, it's not just the cocktails that people come back for. It's the passion behind our bar team that shines through in every drink.
Where we work
Philadelphia is home. We work across Montgomery County and the Main Line, Chester County, Bucks County, Delaware County, and into South Jersey.
