Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Barfrestone
Which station is closest to Barfrestone?
Guests can use Shepherds Well station, about 1.3 miles south-west of Barfrestone.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Nicholas: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
There are always alcohol-free options, from aguas frescas to soft drinks.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will suggest mild options.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Will someone run the bar?
Yes, our bar staff serve your guests. Responsible serving comes first.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.

How it works
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. At midsummer, it’s light in Barfrestone until about 9:15pm, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:00pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting around the bar.

Planning help
Working with your venue

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
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’ll do the serving.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

- Collect allergy details in advance
