- The venue’s permission for an outside bar
- Vehicle access near the bar
- Licensing checked with you before the day
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Mexican bar hire for your event in Swanmore
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will talk licensing through with you. It suits engagement celebrations and summer garden parties, serving aguas frescas, horchata and Mexican beer.
For a party in a place like Swanmore, a drinks bar is easy and sociable. Let us know about access and power. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Step by step
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. By late September, sunset in Swanmore comes at roughly 7:10pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.
