The Riel Boba Bar Story

Riel Boba Bar was born from a passion for bringing people together through unforgettable drinks and genuine hospitality. After spending more than a decade in the bubble tea industry and over five years behind the bar in the hospitality world, I realized there was an opportunity to create something people had never experienced before: a mobile bar that blends the artistry of craft cocktails with the nostalgia and creativity of bubble tea.

 

What started as two separate passions eventually became one unique vision: creating a beverage experience that becomes one of the most memorable parts of any celebration.

Riel Boba Bar began as a childhood dream, a vision of opening a bubble tea shop with a hidden speakeasy serving handcrafted cocktails and creating a one-of-a-kind experience for every guest. While that dream is still growing, every great journey starts with a single step.

​

Today, that first step has become a reality. Riel Boba Bar is a licensed and insured mobile dry bar serving weddings, private parties, corporate events, and special celebrations throughout the Seattle area. We believe every event deserves more than a standard drink service. It deserves an experience that sparks conversation, creates lasting memories, and leaves guests talking long after the last drink is served.

​

Our specialty is offering three distinctive bar experiences. An elegant and fun full-service cocktail bar, a refreshing nostalgic bubble tea mocktail bar, or our signature Alcoholic Boba Bar that combines handcrafted cocktails with authentic bubble tea flavors, every menu is thoughtfully customized to reflect each client's theme and dream bar.

 

As a dry-hire bartending service, our clients provide the alcohol while we take care of everything else. From professional bartenders and complete bar setup to premium mixers, fresh juices, handcrafted syrups, quality garnishes, and personalized cocktail menus, we handle every detail so hosts can enjoy their event without the stress. Our bubble tea offerings feature freshly brewed milk teas and fruit teas with toppings like boba, jelly, and more to create an experience that is both nostalgic and exciting.

 

More than just serving drinks, our mission is to create moments. We believe some of the best memories happen while people gather around a bar, discovering a new favorite cocktail, sharing a laugh over an alcoholic boba drink, or reminiscing about their first bubble tea. Those are the moments we strive to create at every event. And plus, everyone will remember having an alcoholic boba bar at your event making it even more special!

 

At Riel Boba Bar, we pride ourselves on being dependable, convenient, easy to work with, and committed to delivering exceptional service from the first conversation to the final cleanup. Whether you're planning an intimate wedding or having a BBQ with the family in the backyard, we're here to help bring your vision to life with creativity, professionalism, and a beverage experience your guests won't forget.

 

Because to us, it's never just about serving drinks-it's about creating an experience worth celebrating.
