Why Modern Bar Carts are a Must-Have

Modern bar carts are a perfect addition to the modern dining room, mixing old-fashioned traditions with a contemporary twist. In the past, bar carts were used to help guests settle into the parlor with a gin and tonic. Now bar carts are a must-have to enhance your entertaining experience in a whole new way with a variety of functions, colors, and styles.

One of the best features of the modern bar cart is its mobility - allowing you to bring the party with you wherever you go. Modern trolleys make indoor serving and bartending much easier to access and manage. You can transform the way you host gatherings by bringing the beverages right to your guests. Modern bar carts work not only great for indoor serving, but outdoors as well. You can take the party outside anytime by loading your cart with refreshments and snacks and taking it out to the patio or by the pool.

Serving with Modern Bar Carts

Modern bar carts aren't just for holding libations - they serve a variety of purposes and make great surfaces for creating ambiance too.

If you're running out of serving space these modern trolleys are a perfect solution. They're large enough for extra storage space and small enough to be tucked away in a corner so you keep your modern drinkware close at hand. They work great for easy access to serve hors d’oeuvres, appetizers, or snacks while your guests are socializing before sitting down to the formal dinner.

One great example of a modern trolley that will add stylish storage space for your entertaining is the Mobil by Kartell. Available in variety of colors and sizes, this bar cart combines practicality with glamour to create the perfect storage and serving solution.

Selecting the Best Modern Trolleys & Bar Carts for Your Style

The modern bar cart is about more than just serving; it's about style. From the mid-century to Danish modern bar cart, and everything in between, there are many designs to choose from to make sure it matches your taste. You can even use bar carts to spice up your home decor.

If you want to romanticize your space, you can add a little mood lighting on your bar cart by situating a small group of candles in the corner, which will catch the reflective surfaces of liquor bottles. Or you can add a fresh floral arrangement to the corner of the cart to brighten and freshen your space without adding too much clutter.

The bar cart itself can redefine the look and feel of your entertaining space.
