Mexican bar hire in Artington, served fresh

Our bar staff serve responsibly: alcohol-free drinks on offer, and no alcohol for anyone under 18. We serve horchata, Mexican beer and soft drinks, which works well for summer garden parties and weddings, day or evening.

In a rural spot like Artington, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, as long as we can get in. We’ll go through the licensing with you. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

What’s on the menu

Soft drinks

Soft drinks alongside the rest.

Tamarind and fruit waters

Fruit waters are a fresh alcohol-free option.

Should I do it myself?

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Space, access and the venue

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

  • A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late
  • Licensing checked with you before the day
  • Firm, level ground where we can set up

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Organising for someone else?

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.

What Mexican bar hire costs

Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.

The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • The date and rough timings
  • A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
  • The address or venue name
  • Diets and allergies you know about

To get a price, just use our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest a menu to suit.

Artington: your questions answered

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin?

Yes. The church itself is not 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.

Do you cater in villages like Artington?

Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.

Do you cover Artington?

Yes, we do. Artington is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

Do you need power and water?

It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.

What’s on the drinks menu?

Margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. The drinks list is agreed with you.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

Do you bring staff to serve the drinks?

Bar staff are part of the service, and serve throughout the agreed hours.

Step by step

We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. At midsummer, it’s light in Artington until about 9:20pm, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.

  1. First, we check your date.
  2. You get a suggested drinks list.
  3. We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
  4. The bar opens at the agreed time.
  5. We tidy up at the end.

Preparing for the day

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
