What Mexican bar hire costs
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Timings and hours
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- What’s on the menu
- The number of people
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Evening drinks in Etchingwood stay light until about 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. String lights or lanterns near the hatch make a later bar easier to find.
