Mexican bar hire near Denton
Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Step by step
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. A summer drinks reception in Denton has daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. In late September it’s dark around 7:00pm, and in December by about 3:50pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We go through the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- After service, we clear the bar away.
Getting ready for the day

FAQs for Denton
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Will you travel to a small place like Denton?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain doesn’t typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
What does a Mexican bar cost?
We quote for each event, depending on guests, drinks and timings. Contact us for a quote.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Planning the bar
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Plan water alongside the bar
- Tell us when the bar should open and close
- Check how alcohol will be licensed at your venue
- Give us numbers for children
When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Tell us what glassware you need and we’ll confirm the options with your quote.
Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
