Columbus's craft soda bar. No small talk. Just great drinks.
The Brass Soda Cart brings speakeasy-styled dirty soda service to Columbus corporate events, weddings, and celebrations. A fully staffed bar, a stunning setup, and a menu your guests will come back to all night.
Serving Columbus
Columbus doesn't do things halfway. The Short North has raised the bar on food and drink culture. Arena District events demand polish. The wedding venues scattered through New Albany and out into Delaware County set a standard that vendors have to meet. The Brass Soda Cart was made for a city like this.
We serve Columbus from our base in the Dayton area — close enough to arrive early, far enough away to appreciate what makes Columbus events special. Whether you're planning a 500-person corporate conference or an intimate wedding reception in German Village, we bring the same level of craft and professionalism.

Columbus is approximately 70 miles from our base — roughly a 60–75 minute drive. We build in early arrival time so we're always set up and ready before your guests arrive.
