Mexican bar hire in Highgate, served fresh
Aguas frescas are light, fruity drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re alcohol-free, so every guest can enjoy them. We serve aguas frescas, alcohol-free drinks and soft drinks, which works well for taco nights and themed parties and client events and launches.
In Highgate, a drinks bar suits courtyard receptions, office parties and evening events. As with any London event, parking and loading need planning. If alcohol is being served, we will check the licensing with you and your venue. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
