DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
How the day works
Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. A late-September party in Swanwick loses the light at about 7:10pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:55pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
- We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- After service, we clear the bar away.
How to prepare
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Drinks receptions around Swanwick
Swanwick is about 2 miles south of Hedge End, in Hampshire. Across the SO31 area, we’ll come to your venue or site, as long as there’s access. Swanwick is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we can bring Mexican bar hire.
For a drinks-led event, rail details help, and Bursledon station is about 0.8 miles away. If the service is at a church such as Church of St Paul, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Drinks by the sea could work, as Swanwick is within about 2 miles of the coast. Licensing on the seafront needs checking, and we will do that with you.

Questions from Swanwick
How far is Swanwick from central London?
About 67 miles from central London.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Paul?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Will someone run the bar?
Bar staff are part of the service.
What drinks do you serve?
Our bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata, plus alcohol-free choices.
