The process
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down.

- First, we check your date.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.

America Ground questions
Can you serve near the sea around America Ground?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
We are having a ceremony at Holy Trinity Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Always. Aguas frescas and soft drinks are alcohol-free.
Planning the bar
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Pair the bar with hot food
- Plan transport home for guests
- Find out if you need a Temporary Event Notice
- Give us numbers for children
Our bar staff serve throughout the agreed hours, and keep the bar tidy.
Aguas frescas for children and non-drinkers.
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
What we need at the venue

- Space for guests to queue at the bar
- The venue’s permission for an outside bar
- Level, firm ground for the bar set-up
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
