    How much does a private event cost?

    Each event is quoted individually based on your space, guest count, timing, food, drinks and requested extras. Applicable sales tax is included in the quoted flat event fee. A 23% service charge and a separate 20% automatic gratuity are additional. Your quote identifies inclusions and applicable charges. Review pricing and payment details when planning your budget.

    Is there a minimum food-and-beverage spend?

    A minimum may apply depending on your event. Any minimum is for the total event, rather than per person, and is confirmed in your quote.

    How far ahead should I book?

    Request your event at least 14 days ahead. Earlier planning is preferred; shorter-notice requests may be considered individually.

    What confirms my private-event reservation?

    Your signed agreement and required 50% deposit confirm the date. A temporary courtesy hold may last up to three days. See deposit, payment and cancellation policies.

    Will the reserved event space be private?

    Privacy depends on the area you reserve. Unreserved areas remain public, and the party-bus check-in station remains accessible. Your agreement confirms the arrangement.

    Can guests customize food, drinks and entertainment?

    Yes. Discuss your menu, beverage arrangement and optional entertainment or activities with the team. Approved selections are included in your quote. Explore event add-ons for ideas.

    Are activities included automatically?

    Mechanical-bull access, hat experiences, transportation and other add-ons are included only when expressly listed in your quote.

    Should I book a private event or a free VIP table?

    Choose a free VIP table for a gathering during regular public service. Request a private event when you want reserved event space and customized arrangements.

    Can guests host a party just for fun?

    Are guests allowed to bring their own food?

    Honky Tonk Hideaway coordinates event catering. Outside cakes and desserts need prior approval; food and dessert arrangements apply.

    What happens if an outdoor event needs a weather backup?

    An outdoor event may move indoors if space and capacity allow. Any price adjustment is decided individually.

    Can Honky Tonk Hideaway accommodate accessibility requests?

    Email your needs at least seven days ahead when possible. Later requests may still be considered.
