Planning a drinks bar in Blackness
Blackness is about 2 miles north of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. For Mexican bar hire in Blackness, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access in and around Blackness. We serve in all 289 towns and villages across East Sussex. We cater right across the region, from Blackness to Brighton (about 18 miles away).
Nearby historic houses include Michelham Priory (4.4 miles north-west) and Horselunges Manor (4.9 miles north-west). Grand houses and estates tend to have firm rules on alcohol and outside bars, so raise the drinks bar with them early. Couples leaving a church such as St Luke's Church could be greeted with margaritas and aguas frescas at the reception. Blackness is within about 6 miles of the South Downs National Park, a lovely setting for drinks outdoors. Ask your venue about vehicle access for the truck or trailer. Drinks by the sea could work, as Blackness is within about 4 miles of the coast. Licensing on the seafront needs checking, and we’ll do that with you.

What affects the price in Blackness
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- What the venue already provides
- The number of people
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food

Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

Mexican bar hire or something else?
A standard bar is fine, but a Mexican bar with margaritas and aguas frescas feels like part of the theme. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

- We talk through licensing with you.
- We agree a drinks menu.
- We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
- We clear the bar at the end.
How to prepare
