An inspection will be conducted by KILHAREN'S MANAGEMENT before and after the event. You have the right and are encouraged to participate in the inspection.

You must use only our bartending staff. If alcohol is being served at the event, you will be required to pay for an off duty police officer to work during the entire event. The officers are not in uniform. One officer per 75 people is required (if there is 76 people this requires 2 officers). This is for our safety and yours. The officers charge $25 per hour and this is non-negotiable. Based on the number in your party, we will hire the officers accordingly.
