Bar Services

Poppy’s Parlor is a licensed premise. All guests agree to comply with laws and regulations that prohibit the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages on the premises to persons under the age of 21. We reserve the right to refuse to serve anyone.

All beverages are charged on a per consumption basis. We can custom tailor the bar to meet your needs. When using bar services only, Parlor rental will apply. Choose one or a combination of the following:

Open Bar

The host/hostess pays for all alcoholic drinks. An 18% gratuity will be added to the total of the tickets and the host/hostess will pay this amount at the conclusion of the event.

Complimentary Tickets

The host/hostess gives their guests a ticket for as many drinks as the host would like to pay for. An 18% gratuity will be added to the total of the tickets and the host/hostess will pay this amount at the conclusion of the event.

Cash Bar

All drinks are paid for by each individual guest.

Parlor Rental (with food service)

Our minimum charge for the Parlor is $550.00 per event. This does not include the gratuity. For example, in the event that the food, beverage, and liquor total not meet the minimum, then an additional charge will be added to make up the difference between the food, beverage, and liquor total and $550.00.

Parlor Rental Only (without food)

We will rent our room to guests for an approved use and provide coffee, tea, and water. A room charge of $200.00 covers the first two hours of use with an additional $75.00 charge per hour thereafter.

Poppy’s Ristorante offers the classic Boardroom to anyone for their special meeting or dining experience for only $35.00 per occasion. The Boardroom comfortably seats a maximum of 10 guests.
