How the day works
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we will adjust where we can. A late-September party in Five Ash Down loses the light at about 7:05pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We talk licensing through with you.
- We agree a drinks menu.
- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
- We clear the bar at the end.

Planning help
Can I do a taco night myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Mexican bar hire or something else?
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
