What Mexican bar hire costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- What the venue already provides
- Serving staff
- How many guests we are serving
- The length of service
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- The venue or postcode
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- What power and water the site has
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.

- A bar spot away from homes
- Somewhere to park and unload nearby
