Mexican bar hire near Chiltington
How our Mexican bar hire works in Chiltington
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will check the licensing with you. Popular choices include soft drinks, margaritas and aguas frescas, which works well for wedding drinks receptions and big birthday celebrations.
Near Chiltington, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, given access. We’ll talk licensing through with you. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

The process
Your timings come first. If things run behind, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. Winter receptions in Chiltington are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:15pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the licensing with you.
- We agree a drinks menu.
- We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
- We clear the bar at the end.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Give us a contact for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
