About Us

Oak & Ember was created to bring a refined, reliable, and visually striking mobile bar experience to events throughout the Capital Region and beyond. Founded by Scott McCauliffe, Oak & Ember blends classic bartending fundamentals with modern presentation to deliver bar service that feels seamless, elevated, and genuinely memorable.

Values

At its core, Oak & Ember is built around one simple belief: great bar service should enhance an event — not complicate it. From weddings and private celebrations to corporate gatherings and venue partnerships, every detail is approached with professionalism, preparedness, and respect for the space we’re working in.

What We Do

We specialize in mobile bartending services designed to integrate smoothly with venues, planners, and caterers. That means clean, self-contained setups, responsible alcohol service, clear communication, and a team that understands how to operate within established event flows. Whether we’re supporting a full open bar, running a specialty cocktail station, or providing overflow staffing, our goal is always the same: to make bar service the easiest part of your event.

Oak & Ember offers custom cocktail menus, polished bar setups, and trained, personable bartenders who care as much about guest experience as they do about safety and professionalism. We are fully insured, committed to best practices in alcohol service, and dedicated to creating an environment where both guests and venues feel confident and well taken care of.

If you’re a venue, planner, or host looking for a dependable mobile bar partner that brings both style and structure to your events, we’d love to connect.
