About our Mexican bar hire in Baker's Cross
The margarita is the star of the bar: tequila, lime and orange liqueur over ice. It suits mexican-themed parties and wedding drinks receptions, serving soft drinks, agua de jamaica and aguas frescas.
In a rural spot like Baker's Cross, 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. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Baker's Cross questions
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Dunstan?
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 come to events in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
There are always alcohol-free options, including aguas frescas and soft drinks.
Who handles the licensing?
It depends on the venue. Some venues have a premises licence; others need a Temporary Event Notice. We’ll talk licensing through with you.
How much does Mexican bar hire cost in Baker's Cross?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.
Will someone run the bar?
Bar staff are part of the service.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- The number of people
- How long we’re needed on site
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The date and rough timings
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The address or venue name
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Comparing your options
Running your own bar means checking licensing, stock and staff yourself. We will go through the licensing with you and bring bar staff. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.

Serving alcohol in Crane Valley would need the owner’s permission and probably a licence, so a garden or venue is often simpler.

With the High Weald National Landscape within about a mile, a countryside drinks reception is an option. Check how the venue handles outside bars and vehicles.

Step by step
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. A late-September party in Baker's Cross loses the light at about 7:00pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
