Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. At midsummer, it’s light in Havant until about 9:20pm, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting around the bar.

- We talk through licensing with you.
- You choose the drinks with us.
- We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
- We pack down when the bar closes.

Havant is about 18 miles east of Southampton, in Hampshire. Across the PO9 area, we’ll come to your venue or site, as long as there is access. Havant is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we can bring Mexican bar hire. We cater right across the region, from Havant to Southampton (18 miles away).
If the service is at a church such as St Francis, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Older venues around Havant may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before booking. The coast is within about 6 miles of Havant. Wind, sand and the rules on alcohol in public places all need planning for a seaside bar.
