About our Mexican bar hire in Dunkirk
Alcohol at an event needs the right licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We go through the licensing with you before the day. We serve soft drinks, Mexican beer and horchata, and it suits engagement and anniversary parties and end-of-year and Christmas parties.
In a rural spot like Dunkirk, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, given access. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.
What’s on the menu
Agua de jamaica
Hibiscus water, sweet and tart.
Tamarind and fruit waters
Tamarind water and seasonal fruit waters.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. A summer drinks reception in Dunkirk has daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:00pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
