The Trough Horse Box Bar is

"Party Perfect"

Fabulous, pretty awesome, fun, yet wonderfully efficiently run - just what every party, event, wedding, corporate function, the opening of an envelope needs.

We have both the Horse Box Bar for outdoor locations, and the wonderful apple crate pop up bar for smaller spaces.

The Trough bar stocks a highly quaffable range of quality drinks. We are proud members of New Forest Marque, therefore we are delighted to stock locally produced drinks, alongside other premium brands.
