Private and Semi-Private Rental Configurations
Choose the setup that works best for your party.
Private Venue Rental
A full venue buyout gives your party exclusive access to the entire space. This includes all 50 self-pour taps, the full liquor bar, all HDTVs, the DJ and live music area, and the large outdoor space. Indoor capacity is 91 guests. This option is ideal for events where you want complete privacy and full control over the atmosphere, music, and layout.
Semi-Private Rental
A semi-private rental reserves a dedicated section of the venue for your group. You and your guests have your own space within the taphouse while still enjoying the lively energy of the bar. This is a great option for smaller parties, casual celebrations, after-work gatherings, and groups that want the ambiance of a busy taphouse with a reserved area to call their own.
Not sure which rental option is right for your party? That is perfectly fine. When you fill out the inquiry form, just let us know the size of your group, the type of event, and what you are looking for. Our team will recommend the best configuration based on your needs and help you plan a setup that works.
Both rental options give you access to the full range of drink options, including the self-pour taps and the full liquor bar. The main difference is the level of exclusivity and the amount of space reserved for your group. Whether you go private or semi-private, your guests will have a fantastic experience.

Why Rent a Party Room at Pour Choice Instead of a Traditional Venue?
There are many options for party room rentals in Orlando, from hotel ballrooms to restaurant private dining rooms to dedicated event halls. So why choose Pour Choice Taphouse? Here are the key reasons that event planners consistently choose us over more traditional options.
The Self-Pour Experience Is a Built-In Activity. At most venues, the space itself is just a backdrop. At Pour Choice, the venue is part of the entertainment. The self-pour tap wall gives guests something interactive and fun to do throughout the entire event. They browse the 50 taps, try small pours of different craft beers, hard seltzers, ciders, and cocktails on tap, and share their favorites with friends. It is a natural icebreaker that keeps the energy high and the conversation flowing. No other party room rental in Orlando offers this kind of built-in experience.
Total Food Flexibility. One of the most common frustrations with traditional venue rentals is being locked into an expensive catering menu. At Pour Choice, you are free to bring your own food or hire any caterer you want. There are no required food packages, no per-plate minimums, and no restrictions. This means you can customize the food to match your event perfectly, and it often saves a significant amount compared to venues that bundle catering into the rental cost.
A Full Bar, Not Just Beer. While the self-pour taps are a huge draw, Pour Choice also has a full liquor bar staffed by bartenders. Your guests who prefer cocktails, spirits, or mixed drinks are just as well served as the craft beer enthusiasts. This combination of self-pour taps and a full bar means there is truly something for every guest at your party.
Entertainment on Your Terms. Pour Choice has space for a DJ or live music, and the team can help you secure talent if you need assistance finding the right entertainment. You can also use the multiple HDTVs for slideshows, presentations, or sports viewing. This level of entertainment flexibility is hard to find at traditional party room rentals.
Convenient Location and Free Parking. Located in the Mills 50 District, Pour Choice is centrally located and easy to reach from I-4, downtown Orlando, and Ivanhoe Village. Pour Choice has a large shared parking lot plus free street parking around the venue, so your guests do not have to worry about parking fees or navigating a garage.

"Renting the space at Pour Choice was the best decision we made for our company event. The process was easy, the venue was perfect, and the self-pour taps made it so much more fun than a typical bar rental. Our team is still talking about it. The BYO food policy was a huge bonus."
The Self-Pour Difference: Why RFID Wristbands Change the Game
If you have never been to a self-pour bar, here is what you can expect when you rent a party room at Pour Choice Taphouse. When your guests arrive, each person receives an RFID wristband. This wristband activates the self-pour taps and tracks how much each guest pours. Guests simply hold their wristband up to a tap, pour as much or as little as they want, and pay by the ounce.
This system has several advantages that make it perfect for parties and events. First, it eliminates long lines at the bar. Instead of everyone waiting for a bartender during peak moments, guests serve themselves at the tap wall at their own pace. This keeps the energy of your party flowing smoothly and prevents those frustrating bottlenecks that happen at traditional bars during busy events.
Second, the self-pour system is an interactive experience that doubles as entertainment. Guests naturally gravitate toward the tap wall, exploring the 50 rotating options and trying new things. It sparks conversations, encourages sampling, and gives people something to do beyond standing around. For corporate events and networking gatherings, this is especially valuable because it breaks down the social barriers that can make professional events feel awkward.
Third, paying by the ounce means guests have complete control over their spending. They can pour a full glass of something they know they like, or pour a small taste of something new without committing to a whole drink. This flexibility is appreciated by guests and makes the overall drink experience more enjoyable and personalized.
And remember, the self-pour taps are just one part of the drink offering. The full liquor bar is always available for guests who prefer cocktails, spirits, or other mixed drinks. Between the 50 taps and the full bar, every guest at your party will find something they enjoy.
