Compass brings professional bartenders and a custom menu to company holiday parties, client nights, and team dinners across New Jersey.
Three setups: the trailer in your lot or courtyard, bartender only service from $550, or the freestanding wooden bar.
Fully insured, with certificates of insurance for your building or venue on request.
BYOB keeps the budget fixed: one service quote plus bottles at retail. December dates fill first, so check yours now.
The Holiday Party People Actually Remember
Most company holiday parties run the same way: a conference room, a catering tray, a few bottles on a folding table, and somebody from the office stuck playing bartender. People show up, stay for an hour, and go home. The ones people talk about in January have a moment worth gathering around, and a real bar with real bartenders is the easiest way to create one.
Compass has already worked the formats a company party comes in: a launch party, a charity golf outing for the 200 Club of Ocean County, and a corporate golf day. The corporate events page covers the full offering. This page is about December, when everyone wants the same few dates.
The office party everyone actually stays for. Add a real bar and nobody from the team has to work it.
What Compass Handles
Bartenders You Can Put In Front Of ClientsProfessional bartenders who are quick with a pour and good with a crowd. They set up before guests arrive, run the bar all night, and break down after.
A Menu Built For Your TeamA short menu with a signature drink named for the company or the year, the classics your crowd orders, and a zero proof option for anyone driving home.
Insurance And PaperworkFully insured, with certificates of insurance for your building, landlord, or venue on request. We know what facilities teams ask for.
A Budget That Does Not MoveCompass runs BYOB. The company buys bottles at retail from our list, so the cost is set before the party starts instead of a bar tab that grows all night.
Three ways to set up. The trailer, a 2026 custom build with two serving stations and its own power and water, parks in the lot or courtyard and becomes the centerpiece. Bartender only service starts at $550 and works your space. The freestanding wooden bar goes where the trailer cannot. Send the space and we will tell you which one fits.
A lot or courtyard with string lights is all the trailer needs. Guests step out for a drink and head back into the warmth.
Three Kinds Of December Party
The office party. Everyone arrives in the same half hour, so the menu stays short and the trailer's two serving stations keep the line moving. The trailer parks in the lot, and people step out of the office into a real bar.
The client appreciation night. This is where the setup earns its keep. A wood paneled trailer bar in the courtyard makes a better impression than a hotel ballroom bar, and the menu can carry your company name.
The team dinner. Smaller, slower, and usually inside. Bartender only service or the wooden bar fits, with a short menu built around the meal. The holiday party guide goes deeper on all three, and the corporate event guide covers the logistics.
Send the date, the location, your headcount, and the hours. We confirm the setup, send a certificate of insurance if your building needs one, build the menu with whoever is planning, and send the shopping list a couple of weeks out. On the day we arrive early, run the bar, and leave the lot the way we found it.

Questions, Answered
Usually, yes. The trailer needs a flat spot about two parking spaces long and permission from whoever manages the property. It brings its own battery power and running water, so nothing plugs into your building. Send a photo of the lot or courtyard and we confirm placement before you book.
Compass is fully insured, and we provide certificates of insurance for your building, landlord, or venue on request. Facilities teams ask for them all the time, so send the requirements early and we will handle the paperwork.
The company buys the alcohol at retail from a shopping list sized to your headcount and hours. Compass brings the bartenders and runs the bar. Your cost is predictable from the start: one service quote plus the bottles, with no per drink tab running up behind the bar.
Bartender only service and the freestanding wooden bar both work for spaces the trailer cannot reach. Tell us the room, the size, and how people will move through it, and we will confirm the setup before you book. The indoor holiday bar guide covers both options.
Yes. A signature drink named for the company, the team, or the year is one of the most requested things on a corporate menu. We build it with you ahead of time and put it on the menu board, along with a zero proof option for anyone driving home.
As soon as the date is set. December Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays are the first to go, and Compass is a small local team, so dates fill fast.
Bartender only service starts at $550. Trailer packages are quoted to your date, location, guest count, and hours, so send your date and we will price your exact event. Because Compass runs BYOB, the alcohol is a separate, retail priced purchase you make from our shopping list.
Compass is a small local team, so we handle cancellations and date changes case by case. Reach out as early as you can and we will work with you.
December Dates Go First
Every company in the state wants the same few weeks. Send the date and the headcount and we will tell you if we can be there.
