How our Mexican bar hire works in Carter's Clay
Pair the bar with our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos, so food and drinks come from one booking. Popular choices include alcohol-free drinks, Mexican beer and soft drinks, and it is a good fit for fairs and community events and garden get-togethers.
Near Carter's Clay, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, given access. We’ll check the licensing with you. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
DIY drinks tables are easy but need constant topping up. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.

A closer look at the menu
Margaritas
The margarita is the heart of a Mexican bar.
Mexican beer
Cold Mexican lager with lime, ideal with tacos.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Before you choose a spot
If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- Vehicle access near the bar
- A premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice in place
