The process
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. A late-September party in Cousley Wood loses the light at about 7:00pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- We check availability.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
Ask for a quote
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you are ready, send a quick message through our quote form.
Planning help
Before you choose a spot
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late
- The venue’s permission for an outside bar
- The right licence for alcohol: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Tips for a smooth bar
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Think about how guests get home
- Ask your venue about its licence early
- Give us numbers for children
- Plan any Temporary Event Notice well ahead
We arrive in good time to set up the bar, so drinks are ready when you are.
Aguas frescas for children and non-drinkers.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
