Mexican bar hire in Ashurst Bridge
How our Mexican bar hire works in Ashurst Bridge
Aguas frescas are Mexico’s fresh fruit and flower drinks: hibiscus agua de jamaica, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re alcohol-free, so every guest can enjoy them. We serve margaritas, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks, and it suits garden parties and taco nights and themed parties.
Near Ashurst Bridge, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, as long as we can get in. We’ll talk licensing through with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
How it works
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A late-September party in Ashurst Bridge loses the light at about 7:10pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:55pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that’s the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- After service, we clear the bar away.
How to prepare
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
