As summer comes to a close and fall breezes are on the horizon, I always look to start stocking my bar with bourbons and whiskeys and other things that are comforting in cold weather. There’s something that feels classy and grown up about having a well-stocked bar cart in your living room.
Whether your space is large or small, there’s a bar cart that will fit! Each of these is under $150 so it won’t break the bank and will leave you with plenty of extra cash that you can spend on filling it! Some of these carts make for great coffee bars, too – there is so much inspo here!
Here are my favorite ‘modern’ bar carts!
Threshold Wood & Brass Finish Bar Cart
This cart is clean lined and classic! I love that it can be painted and refinished in future years to change its look, if desired, too. Brass has come back in a real way and this cart is an inexpensive way to incorporate it into your décor. (Above: Threshold Wood & Brass Finish Bar Cart, $130, Target).
Threshold Wood & Glass Gold Finish Bar Cart
This golden cart is stunning! It’s simple and elegant. I love the glass top shelf that allows light to pass through to the bottom. (Above: Threshold Wood & Glass Gold Finish Bar Cart, $130, Target).
Threshold Metal, Glass & Leather
Rose Gold-Finish Bar Cart
I love the warmth and girly vibe of rose gold. This cart is perfect for an office coffee bar! I think that the leather covered handle adds a bit of extra elegance to this piece. (Above: Threshold Metal, Glass & Leather Rose Gold Finish Bar Cart, $130, Target).
Threshold Metal, Wood & Leather
Gold-Finish Bar Cart
This cart features two wooden shelves and screams mid-century modern. It’s the perfect place to pour whiskeys and make an old fashioned! This one features a leather-wrapped handle like its rose gold counterpart (Above: Threshold Metal, Wood & Leather Gold Finish Bar Cart, $130, Target).
Modern by Dwell Magazine Bar Trolley
in Black & Copper
I love this round cart as a side table or the perfect accessory tucked in a corner. It’s a great size for an apartment or loft, too. Small spaces still call for bar carts and this one is a winner! I also love the bold copper – it’s very on-trend and adds a certain elegance. (Above: Modern by Dwell Magazine Bar Trolley – Black & Copper, $149, Target).
Modern by Dwell Magazine Bar Trolley
in White & Natural Wood
Looking for something a bit brighter that doesn’t have your traditional espresso finish? I love how this round cart comes in this natural wood and white finish, too. It can be modern and sophisticated or even beachy, given the right accessories and setting. (Above: Modern by Dwell Magazine Bar Trolley – White & Natural Wood, $149, Target).
