So I didn’t ever picture myself writing a whole article dedicated to neon bar signs, I mean, it's kind of niche. But hey, here we are!
Recently I’ve moved home. In my new house is a spare room. As someone who spends a lot of time in bars, both for work and pleasure, there was only one logical thing to do. Make a home bar of course!
It’s a very exciting time. In one room I will have my drinks lab, a full photography and videography studio, work office and bar, all squeezed into what must be a 10 sq. meter room. In doing this bar conversion, I’ve found a love for all things decorative (You should have seen my excitement when I came across a monkey lamp) most of which are hard to narrow down. Especially when you’re building a home bar on a budget. I spent a good 4 hours last week looking for the perfect chair.
The humble neon sign is something that has crossed my mind a lot. Whatever theme you decide to go with with your home bar, whatever size and whatever space you have to work with. A neon sign just completes the “bar” look.
From small signs that would fit comfortably on a shelf, bar cart or that would fit snugly on a wall, to the more excessive large neon signs and of course - personalised neon bar signs.
There's so many to choose from and that's before you even get to the colours!
The beauty of neon bar signs is that if you go to the right place, they are cheap. Meaning its very accessible to fit into whatever home bar budget you may have. The only difficulty is finding the best ones for you.
Well fear not. This is a whole article dedicated to one thing and one thing only. Neon bar signs for home bars - where to buy them, and home bar décor inspiration. This niche article is something I'm writing for my past self. Something I wish I had to take the research load off. Which I have split into the different categories from food, to phrases and statement pieces.
Food Neon Signs For Home Bars
The best food neon bar signs for home bars.
#1 Banana Neon Sign
I’m going to start this list of with my favourite. This humble banana neon sign. Why? Why not. I mean, it’s a freaking banana.
There’s an underlining joke in my household between me and my partner, which is that this home bar has become a monkey themed bar.
To start with one of my most beloved pieces of décor in there is a monkey lamp, secondly I have 3 old school cages and a bottle cage from, well, you guessed it, Monkey Shoulder whisky. If that wasn’t enough its also filled with fake plants, the main two? Banana plants. And yes, you better believe I have a monkey candle holder as well.
So a banana neon sign is pretty much a no brainer. My jabbering aside, this neon sign is approx 50cm high, has a USB power supply, is quirky enough to draw attention and gives of a beautifully yellow hue.
It’s also extremely affordable which is a massive pro. If you’re putting together a home bar, then you want your money to go on the stock not the décor. Not at first anyway…
I’ve dedicated an entire article to this neon sign just because it is my favourite, as well as a video review which you can find on YouTube here.

#2 Pineapple Neon Sign
Next up we have the pineapple neon sign. You knew it was coming, didn’t you?
Pineapples and bars go hand in hand. Its like the unofficial logo of a cocktail bar. And I’m not just talking about Tiki bars, however, on the subject of tiki bars;
If you’re a lover of all things rum and all things tiki, and you have a home bar or good rum collection at home, then a pineapple neon sign isn’t just a treat, its an essential!
#3 Avocado Neon Sign
Just as the pineapple is the symbol for cocktail bars, the Avocado is the symbol of the millennial generation.
What was once unknown about 10 years ago is now a brunch must have. Anyone remember fry ups for breakfast? A full English? Remember when the humble egg and toast was king? No? Neither do I. It’s all about that smashed avocado baby.
#4 Popsicle Neon sign
Ice ice baby. This neon sign is a gosh darn popsicle.
Do I really need an explanation to why this fits perfectly into a home bar? It doesn’t. Its weird, why would you have a popsicle neon sign in/on your home bar? You wouldn’t. And that’s why its perfect.
Personalized Neon Bar Signs

#5 Personalised neon sign
Okay, so I have 3 options for personalised and customisable neon signs.
Because sometimes, you want your own name up there in lights. Or the name of your home bar/designated bar area. The first being this one which includes 2 neon lighted beers.
#6 Custom Neon Bar Sign
The second option for customisable neon bar signs is this one.
No neon beers this time, however this is more of a sleek and classy neon sign for your bar.
Not to mention its 25 inches long so its a big boy.
#7 Make your own neon sign
The last custom neon sign I have for you is this here “do it yourself” neon sign. This one comes with 3 meters of blue neon flex that you can bend into whatever sign you want.
It’s also super cheap so even if you mess it up it’s not a huge loss. That being said, I feel like half the fun here is the making it. Great little project to get stuck into on a quiet weekend.
Light up your bar with words
The best neon quotes for home bar decorating.
#8 “Good vibes only” Neon Sign
Pictures say a thousand words… however, words are straight to the point.
Make your home bar stand out with some neon words, sayings or phrases to define your bar. First on the list of wordy neon signs is the classic “Good Vibes Only” sign, reminding yourself and any of your bars visitors that its a good vibes only place!
#9 “Lets Party” Neon Sign
Nothing quite says “home bar” quite like this neon bar sign.
Its short, sweet, and straight to the point. Lets Party!

Looking to add a little bit of culture into your home bar? Try out this neon sign that literally translates to “hope”
There’s plenty of wordy neon signs you can get. Either directly related to your style of bar or as random as possible. Sometimes it not about what they say, its about how they look. Here are a few more great options that would fit nicely into any home bar.
#12 “Hustle” Neon Sign
#13 “Hello” Neon Sign
#14 “Cocktails and Dreams” Neon Sign
There are three types of people in this world.
People who live and die by the film cocktail, people who hated it with a passion and finally, people who are too young to know what the hell it is.
If you do remember the movie then you either must have this neon sign immediately in your home bar, or scroll on past as quick as possible.
And if you’ve never seen the movie cocktail, just trust me on this one. This neon sign is iconic and you need it.
#15 “Open” Neon Sign
#16 “Fuck it” Neon Sign
Sometimes there’s only one thing to say…
Statement piece
The best weird, wonderful, and mostly random neon signs for home bars.
#17 Alien Neon Bar Sign
These next few neon lights are ones under the “statement piece” category. From random things that may hold lots of value and personal meaning, to random things that have no meaning and you just think would look cool lighting up your home bar.
Like this alien neon light…
#18 Planet Neon Sign
Now you cant exactly have a light up neon alien in your home bar without a light up neon planet to go alongside can you?
Just image, an alien and planet neon light in your home bar? Talk about cool. The beauty of both these neon lights are there small enough that even if you have a small bar cart you’re looking to decorate, you could fit both snuggly on top. Not to mention they are cheap.
#19 Lightning bolt Neon Sign
Keeping with the theme of things from up above, here’s a cool looking lightning bolt and cloud neon light that would light up any home bar beautifully.
#20 Playing cards Neon Sign

#21 Rainbow Neon Sign
How about lighting up your bar with colour and style with this rainbow neon bar light?
#22 Cactus Neon Sign
If your home bar is either plant heavy or tequila heavy, then nothing is more suited then this here cactus neon light.
#23 Palm Tree Neon Sign
Speaking of plant heavy home bars, here’s another option for you that’s also suited for well stocked rum and tiki bars.
#24 Flamingo Neon Sign
Lets hear it for the girls!
The best female neon bar signs.
#25 Ladies back neon sign
In doing my research for the best neon signs for bars, I found that "lady” neon signs are very popular, so I just had to include them in this list.
They don’t really suit my personal bar. But as discussed, mine is more of the banana neon bar type bar as opposed to sleek and chic.
I can totally see how they would be suited for home bars. Having some kind of lady body part illuminating your bar adds some elegance and sleekness to the bar. It gives it somewhat class or a female touch if you will.
This one in particular receives great reviews
#26 Pink neon lips sign
Pink neon lips, an absolute classic for trendy bars. This adds a feminine touch to any bar, making it perfect for a "masculine” type bar or feminine one. Everything can benefit from a subtle female touch or bright pink neon light.
In fact, I have this exact one which if you’ve subscribed to my YouTube, you will see in the background of a few of my videos.
These neon lips are a great for adding that feminine touch without having to have a naked woman plastered on your wall.
#27 Decorative lady neon sign
I know what you’re thinking, we’ve had the back of a lady but where’s the front! Well here it is. Having a naked lady neon sign can be tricky to incorporate into a home bar. Do it right, and it adds a sense of elegance to a home bar or space. Do it wrong and it just looks tacky.
This one is a great way to add that feminine touch of a ladies body lighting up your bar without having it look tacky.
#28 Wine Drinking Lady Neon Bar Sign
Finally, and more fitting with a home bar, we have this one.
Green neon is defiantly something that looks super cool in a bar and if you’re really wanting a feminine touch but don’t want your home bar to look tacky, this is the perfect way to go.
She’s drinking a glass of wine so it’s an instant tie in to a home bar.
Personally, with the wine, I’d totally have this up next to or above my wine rack.
