Garden Bar FAQs

Here we’ve put together some answers to frequently asked questions about garden bars.

The cost of a garden bar in the UK can vary greatly depending on the size, materials, and features of the bar. A basic, pre-fabricated garden bar can cost as little as £300, while a custom-built bar with all the bells and whistles can cost upwards of £10,000.

Here is a breakdown of the average costs of different types of garden bars in the UK:

  • Pre-fabricated garden bars: These bars are typically made from wood or plastic and come in a variety of sizes and styles. Prices typically start at £300 and can go up to £2,000.
  • Custom-built garden bars: These bars are made to order and can be customised to your specific needs and budget. Prices typically start at £2,000 and can go up to £10,000 or more.
  • Bar gazebos: These gazebos are designed to provide shelter from the sun and rain while you’re enjoying your garden bar. Prices typically start at £500 and can go up to £3,000.

In addition to the cost of the bar itself, you will also need to factor in the cost of installation, if necessary. The cost of installation will vary depending on the size and complexity of the bar, but it typically costs between £500 and £1,000.

Here are some additional factors that can affect the cost of a garden bar:

  • The size of the bar: Larger bars will obviously cost more than smaller bars.
  • The materials used: Wood bars are typically more expensive than plastic bars.
  • The features of the bar: Bars with features such as a sink, fridge, and lighting will cost more than basic bars.
  • The location of the bar: Bars that are located in remote areas will cost more to install than bars that are located in more accessible areas.

If you’re looking for a way to add a touch of luxury to your garden, a garden bar is a great option. However, it’s important to factor in the cost of the bar before you make a decision. With so many different factors to consider, it’s important to get quotes from a few different suppliers before you make a purchase.

In most cases, Garden Bars are classed as outbuildings, which means you won’t have to seek any kind of planning permission to install a garden bar.

Permitted development rights allow certain minor developments to take place without needing planning approval, with some limitations and conditions that must be observed before beginning your garden bar project. It’s crucial that you familiarise yourself with these rights before initiating this venture.

Garden Bars are considered Permitted Development and do NOT require planning permission as long as:

1. Size and Location: Your garden bar’s size and location play an essential part in whether or not it needs planning permission. In England, for instance, if the bar measures less than 4 metres high with maximum eaves height of 2.5 metres and is located more than two metres from any boundary line it should generally be considered permitted development; if its dimensions or proximity to any boundary exceed these guidelines it may require special approval from authorities.

2. Usage: Your use of your garden bar is also a key consideration. If it will solely be for personal use without commercial implications, then that would be fine. However, if it will be used for activities such as running a business or hosting events then additional permission may be needed from local planning authorities.

3. Conservation Areas and Listed Buildings: If your property lies within a conservation area or listed building, additional regulations may apply; in these instances it’s advisable to speak with your local planning authority in order to assess their requirements specific to your situation.

4. Other Considerations: Even if your garden bar falls within the permitted development rights, there are still certain restrictions you must keep in mind when designing and building it. Specifically, its footprint must not cover more than 50% of your garden (excluding that occupied by your primary residence ) and must not be used as residential accommodation or contain microwave antennae.


Here are the steps on how to build a garden bar:

  1. Plan your bar. Decide on the size, shape, and features of your bar. Consider the amount of space you have in your garden and how many people you want to be able to accommodate. Make a sketch or plan of your bar so that you can visualise it and make sure it’s the right size and shape for your needs.
  2. Gather your materials. You will need wood, screws, nails, a saw, a drill, and other basic tools. You may also want to purchase pre-cut wood to make the project easier.
  3. Build the frame of the bar. This is the most important part of the project, so take your time and make sure it’s sturdy. Use 2x4s for the frame and attach them with screws or nails.
  4. Add the shelves and countertop. The shelves will provide storage space for your glasses, bottles, and other barware. The worktop will be where you serve your drinks. Use plywood or another type of sturdy material for the shelves and worktop.
  5. Add the finishing touches. Once the frame, shelves, and worktop are in place, you can add the finishing touches. This could include painting the bar, staining the wood, or adding a chalkboard for writing down drink orders. You may also want to add some decorative elements, such as plants, lights, or lanterns.

Here are some additional tips for building a garden bar:

  • Choose the right location for your bar. It should be in a spot that gets plenty of sunlight and is sheltered from the wind.
  • Make sure the ground is level before you start building. This will help to prevent the bar from wobbling.
  • Use pressure-treated wood for the frame and shelves. This will help to protect the wood from the elements.
  • Seal the wood with a water-resistant stain or sealant. This will help to protect the wood from rotting and fading.
  • Add a roof or awning to protect your bar from the sun and rain.
  • Install a sink and fridge if you want to be able to make drinks on the spot.
  • Decorate your bar with plants, lights, and other accessories to make it a more inviting space.

With a little planning and effort, you can build a garden bar that will be the envy of your neighbours.

Garden Bars UK think so! Whether or not it is worth having a garden bar depends on your individual needs and budget. Here are some of the pros and cons of having a garden bar to help you decide:

Pros:

  • Convenience: Having a garden bar means you can always have your favourite drinks on hand, without having to go to the bar or off licence.
  • Cost savings: You can save money by making your own drinks at home, rather than buying them at a bar.
  • Personalisation: You can customise your home bar to your own taste, with your favourite alcohol, mixers, and glassware.
  • Entertainment: A garden bar is a great way to entertain guests. You can impress them with your mixing skills and create a fun and festive atmosphere.
  • Investment: A garden bar can increase the value of your home.

Cons:

  • Cost: Garden bars can be expensive to set up and maintain.
  • Space: A garden bar takes up space, so you need to make sure you have enough room for it.
  • Issues with neighbours: If you serve alcohol to guests at your garden bar, you may cause a nuisance if they get drunk and cause a disturbance.
  • Alcohol abuse: If you have a problem with alcohol abuse, a garden bar may make it worse.

Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to have a garden bar is up to you. If you think it would be a valuable addition to your home and you are willing to invest the time and money, then go for it! But if you are concerned about the cost or the potential for alcohol abuse, then it may be best to avoid having a garden bar.
