Mexican bar hire in Kemsley Street
Mexican bar hire in Kemsley Street, served fresh
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We’ll check the licensing with you. It works well for milestone birthdays and company summer parties, with margaritas, Mexican beer and alcohol-free drinks.
Near Kemsley Street, a drinks bar suits a garden, barn or field party. Let us know about access and soft ground. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
