Summer Bar Carts We Love
A well styled bar cart is such an underrated accessory to any event. Bar carts are super versatile and practical. They are especially valuable if you are hosting in a small space as you can utilize vertical space to serve drinks, apps and display flower arrangements without taking up precious countertop real estate. These bar carts are sure to inspire you for your next summer gathering!

Classic Farmhouse
We love Jen O’Brien’s farmhouse-inspired bar cart. This is a great example of “less is more.” She sticks to a clean, clutter free approach which elevates the final look while keeping it casual. The outdoor lantern, galvanized drink tub and fringed tea towels are the perfect finishing touches.

Feminine Accents
We love the idea of decorating a summer bar cart with subtle pink accents. Here, the flowers are the star of the show and are complemented by the feminine details: ornate wine glasses, pink drinks, and watermelon pieces served on scallop edge cupcake liners. This would be a lovely focal point if you are hosting a bridal or baby shower this summer.

Spacious Self-Serve Station
If you are fortunate enough to own this stunning Serena & Lily bar cart, you are in luck: it is super spacious and provides the perfect amount of surface area to create a self-serve station for your guests. This host has set out all the fix-ins for the perfect summer cocktail and included glassware, an ice bucket and precut lime wedges so her guests could create a drink to their preference. A self-serve station is a wonderful solution for any hostess as it frees you up to mingle with your guests and allows everyone the freedom to grab what they like!

Breakfast Bar Cart
Creating an outdoor breakfast experience sounds like a lovely way to enjoy the summer. We will take any excuse to hotel-ify our time at home! This particular cart features a removable tray on top which serves as the perfect coffee station. The extra bottle storage underneath is just begging to be adorned with a variety of freshly squeezed juices. Load it up with some warm croissants and roll it out to the patio for a relaxing and unforgettable morning.
Twilight Bar Cart
If breakfast isn’t your thing, try this twilight bar cart idea. This would be a phenomenal addition to any at-home date night! Imagine watching the sunset or gazing at the stars from the comfort of your backyard, drinking your favorite glass of wine paired with a cheese and fruit board or perhaps a slice of your favorite dessert!
