How our Mexican bar hire works in Platt
We plan the drinks list together, around your guests, your venue and your timings. Share your ideas and we will suggest a menu. On the menu are soft drinks, alcohol-free drinks and margaritas, and it suits wedding drinks receptions and milestone birthdays.
Near Platt, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, as long as we can get in. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Before booking anyone
- Allergen information for each dish

- Who provides plates and napkins
- Staff numbers and hours
What affects the price in Platt
These are the factors that matter most:
- What’s on the menu
- Whether you need disposables
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Serving staff
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- What you’d like on the menu
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Expected numbers
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. Contact us for a quote: just send a quick message through our quote form.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Mexican bar hire or something else?
Wine and fizz are the usual choices. Margaritas and Mexican beer feel more relaxed. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
Why book with us
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Book food, drinks or both
- Quoted for your event
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
