Mexican bar hire for Poulner events
How our Mexican bar hire works in Poulner
Pair the bar with our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos, so you deal with one team. On the menu are margaritas, aguas frescas and agua de jamaica, and it’s a good fit for launch parties and licensed festivals.
Around Poulner, a drinks bar suits garden parties and village-hall celebrations. Aguas frescas and soft drinks cover guests who aren’t drinking alcohol. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
