HOSPITALITY STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

The five-stage journey of a Bonean Bar commission.

White-glove mobile bar service requires obsessive logistical discipline. From site floor plan analysis to Ontario liquor permit compliance and silent teardown, our concierge team manages every variable so hosts remain entirely unburdened.

PROTOCOLS

Architectural Consultation & Estate Site Survey

We begin with an architectural review of your venue—whether a private residential compound in The Bridle Path, a penthouse in Yorkville, or a summer estate in Muskoka.

Site Verification: Door clearances, freight elevator weight ratings, terrace load capacities.

Infrastructure: Water proximity, greywater drainage plan, electrical inverter autonomy.

Sightlines: Positioning bar modules to maximize natural light and sunset views.

The Yorkville Private Tasting Salon

You and your event planner or partner are welcomed to our studio on Cumberland Street for an intimate, two-hour cocktail development salon.

Tasting Flight: Six bespoke formulations calibrated to your spirits collection and dinner menu.

Ice Cresting: Review brass stamp monograms for directional clear ice cubes.

Stemware Curation: Selection of Riedel and Zalto crystal profiles for each cocktail.

AGCO Compliance, SOP Filing & COI Issuance

Navigating Ontario's Alcohol and Gaming Commission (AGCO) regulations is managed end-to-end by our certified compliance concierge.

SOP Permitting: Preparation and submission of AGCO Special Occasion Permit applications.

Liability Insurance: Issuing a $5,000,000 Commercial Host Liquor Liability Certificate naming the estate.

Staff Certification: 100% Smart Serve certified hospitality personnel with background vetting.

White-Glove Assembly & Mise en Place

Our uniformed installation crew arrives precisely three hours before guest arrival. We utilize padded transit flight cases to prevent contact with finished floors and millwork.

Silent Assembly: Precision cam-locks assemble the travertine or fluted oak bar in 90 minutes.

Thermal Prep: Clear ice tempered to prevent surface cracking; crystal glassware chilled.

Botanical Freshness: Herbs torched, citrus expressed, and fresh garnishes arranged.

Michelin-Caliber Pouring & Zero-Trace Departure

Throughout the gala, mixologists maintain a clean, dry workstation with quiet elegance. At the conclusion of bar service, our team executes an immaculate departure.

Service Rhythm: Sub-60-second cocktail pour times to prevent guest queueing.

Zero-Trace Teardown: Complete site breakdown, greywater extraction, and sweeping in 60 minutes.

Bottle Concierge: Full bottle audit and repackaging of host reserve spirits.
