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. By late September, sunset in Bampton comes at roughly 7:10pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 9:00pm.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.

FAQs for Bampton
How far is Bampton from central London?
About 64 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary?
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.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Can we book the bar without food?
You can. Book the bar on its own.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
About the menu
Horchata
A sweet, creamy rice drink with cinnamon.
Agua de jamaica
Agua de jamaica is bright and refreshing.
How we price Mexican bar hire
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- The length of service
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Guest numbers
- Whether you need disposables
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican bar hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The date and time of the event
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Tips for a smooth bar
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Think about how guests get home
- Pair the bar with hot food
- Ensure there is water for guests
After service, we clear the bar away.
A choice of soft drinks.
Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- Agreement from the venue for our bar
- A premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice in place
- Room for a queue
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
