Re: Bar set-up
Found a few ideas -
Wheels is easy, wheels that will look good on a bar not so easy. I would have a good side where the castors are hidden mostly by a kickplate and have the locking castors on the private side, a fully stocked bar might be too much to move anyway.

Re: Bar set-up
I forget where I read it, but saw recently that someone had converted an Ultimate Storage tool trolley into a bar. They had stained the top and customised some of the shelves and drawers.
Can't seem to find it now but the trolleys are here - http://www.ultimatestorage.com.au/tool-trolley-2017

Re: Bar set-up
To just sit or stand at I would go with an H shaped base and put a top on it.
Could be made from almost anything. Standing I would include a foot rail.

You might be interested in this project on the Bunnings website - D.I.Y. wooden pallet wine bar.
I'll also attach the build video below.
Hope it gives you some inspiration for your project.
