THE BAR
An italian affair
From the cobblestone streets of Italy to the historic streets of Charleston,
Il Piccolo Bar & Foto Booth invites you to indulge in a luxury experience with a uniquely European flair. Weβve taken our 1991 three-wheel Piaggio Ape and reimagined it into a mobile, vintage-inspired beverage bar. Il Piccolo Bar is custom-designed, boasting a five-tap system crafted to serve bubbles, beer, mocktails, and everything in between with style and sophistication.

You can also enjoy Il Piccolo for non-alcoholic options! We're here to work with you in tailoring mocktails, offering a selection of non-alcoholic beers, juices, sodas, and even cold brews to suit your preferences.
We provide liquor liability insurance, general liability insurance, and additional coverage. Moreover, we mandate that all our bartenders hold TIPS Alcohol Training certification.
Our electric Piaggio Ape is versatile, enabling us to access various locations with ease. Whether indoors or outdoors, we're adaptable, provided the entryway can accommodate our vehicle.
