After many years in the restaurant industry, a Marin resident came up with the hippest version of a “Party in a Box” when he decided to convert a 1965 Airstream trailer into a traveling Bar Car. Greg Medow of Mill Valley has taken his show on the road, offering $25-a-head instantly equipped soirees. The side of the trailer opens up to reveal a fully stocked bar with alcohol of your choosing, including a self-serve beer tap pouring local microbrews — perfect for birthdays, tailgates, after-work happy hours and weddings. No setup, no cleanup, no last-minute ice runs.
