Cocktail Glasses

If you’re holding a cocktail party you’re going to need a range of cocktail glasses suitable for the drinks you serve. We have a range of hurricane glasses, martini glasses and margarita glasses available to ensure you have everything you can think of.

What kind of cocktail glass hire do I need?

Are you serving specific drinks at your occasion? If you know what you’re serving at your cocktail party then picking the specific cocktail glass hire you need for the occasion is easy. The classic martini glasses are perfect not only for Martinis, but also cocktails such as Gimlets, Cosmopolitans and Negronis. They have a delicate conical shape which is perfect for these drinks. Margarita glasses are slightly more rounded than a martini glass and are great for the classic margarita or a dacquiri. The hurricane glass is taller, and reminiscent in shape of a hurricane lamp (hence the name). These are more suited for taller drinks like a Singapore Sling or Pina Colada.

Do I need to clean my cocktail glass hire before it is collected?

Did you know that the time most glassware gets broken while on hire is when it's being cleaned?

To prevent breakages, we have made it compulsory for all glassware items to have the send it back dirty option added at checkout. The only thing we ask our customers to do is to make sure all glassware is free of liquids and any food debris before repacking it ready for collection.

What do I need to know about delivery of cocktail glasses for hire

Like all of our glassware, we clean and check all of our cocktail glass hire before it’s sent out for delivery. We use specialised crates to minimise breakages in transit but they can occur; for this reason we always recommend ordering a few glasses extra just in case. We wouldn’t want an unexpected hiccup to ruin your party after all.

It’s easy to find out the cost of getting your event hire delivered and collected from us. Simply tap the Expo Hire Chiltern logo from any page to be taken to the homepage, where you will find the carriage calculator button. Enter your postcode to not only find the carriage charge to that postcode, but to check which of our websites is based closest so you don’t pay more than you have to.

You can also see what extra charges your order might incur on that page. This is all calculated in the checkout; once you have confirmed your delivery address and dates of delivery and collection, if any are applicable these will be itemised for you before you pay so that there are no hidden surprises.

Want to know when your delivery is coming? You can track your driver using our real time maps on the day of delivery and collection. Simply tap the link in the automated text we send you and you can find out where they are - no need to call for updates.
