How our Mexican bar hire works in Abbotsford

Responsible serving matters to us: alcohol-free drinks on offer, and no alcohol for anyone under 18. It suits wedding receptions and evening parties and summer garden parties, serving agua de jamaica, Mexican beer and horchata.

In a rural spot like Abbotsford, drinks can be served from our food truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, given access. We will check the licensing with you. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Can I do a taco night myself?

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

How the day works

The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a picture of the space if you’re unsure. By late September, sunset in Abbotsford comes at roughly 7:05pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:50pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. We talk through licensing with you.
  3. We agree a drinks menu.
  4. Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
  5. We pack down when the bar closes.

Preparing for the day

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Tell us what power and water the site has
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Planning the serving area

If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you. What matters most:

  • A clear area in front of the bar
  • A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

For an event in Abbotsford, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access in and around Abbotsford. Abbotsford is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. We cater right across the region, from Abbotsford to Brighton (10 miles away).
