How to Set Up a Caviar Bar at Home or for an Event

Set up a caviar bar that keeps the tins cold, makes portions easy to understand, and gives guests a clear path from tasting to pairing.

Guidance from The Caviar Guy concierge team.

Choose the service style and amount: Decide whether the bar is a tasting, appetizer, or dedicated station, then use the event quantities guide or calculator to estimate grams per guest.

Keep the caviar cold: Place each open tin over crushed ice and keep unopened tins in the coldest part of the refrigerator until service.

Set out neutral tools and pairings: Provide non-reactive spoons, small plates, restrained accompaniments, and labels that help guests compare the current styles without overwhelming the caviar.

Coordinate the collection and delivery: Browse current products or contact the concierge to confirm inventory, requested timing, and the right quantity for the event.
