- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Space for guests to queue at the bar
- Firm, level ground where we can set up
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A summer drinks reception in Friday Street has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that’s 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, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
How to prepare
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Why choose Mexican bar hire in Friday Street?
A self-service drinks table is simple but can run dry or go warm. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
