How it works

  1. Tell us about your guests

    Enter your guest count and a few details, such as how long the bar is open.

  2. See what to buy

    The result updates as you type, and it is always rounded up so you don't run short.

  3. Check the assumptions

    Every page lists the rules of thumb behind the numbers. Change the inputs to fit your guests, then copy the link or print your list.
