Mexican bar hire in Stowting Common
Mexican bar hire for your event in Stowting Common
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We go through the licensing with you before the day. It suits garden parties and fairs and community events, with alcohol-free drinks, margaritas and agua de jamaica.
Near Stowting Common, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, given access. 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.
How we price Mexican bar hire
These are the factors that matter most:
- Timings and hours
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Distance and access to the venue
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- The date and rough timings

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Space, access and the venue
We’ll be honest if a space will not work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A clear area in front of the bar
- A flat, firm spot for the bar
- Access to unload close to the bar spot
