Bar Assistant is a cocktail-focused application for storing and organizing recipes, tracking ingredient inventory, and building custom cocktail menus. It includes a library of over 500 cocktail recipes and over 250 base ingredients, with support for ingredient substitutes, multi-part ingredients, and optional ingredients. Recipes can be scaled by volume or quantity and priced automatically based on ingredients.

Core modules include Recipes, Ingredients, Menu, Shelf, and Calculators, along with a quantity planner, shopping list, and custom collections with tag-based filtering. Data can be imported and exported in formats such as JSON, YAML, Markdown, and CSV, with recipe image generation and recipe import from other websites. The platform offers an API, single sign-on, multi-bar management, and is open source under an MIT license for self-hosting.

Bar Assistant is packaged as a free single-user, single-bar plan for personal use, a paid multi-user and multi-bar plan with API tokens and unlimited recipes, and a free self-hosted option. The paid plan is billed monthly or annually, and no trial is offered.
