Mexican bar hire near Paddock
Mexican bar hire in Paddock, served fresh
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We will talk licensing through with you. For taco nights and themed parties and product launches and client events, we’ll put together a menu of soft drinks, alcohol-free drinks and agua de jamaica.
Near Paddock, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, given access. We will check the licensing with you. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
How it works
When service finishes, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. In December, the light goes in Paddock at about 3:50pm, so plan where guests will gather, and how it will be lit. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:15pm.
- 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 suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
