Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Bartley
Do you cater in villages like Bartley?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you come to events in the New Forest National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
What drinks do you serve?
Margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. The drinks list is agreed with you.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will talk licensing through with you.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Tips for a smooth bar
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Tell us how many guests are under 18
- Pair the bar with hot food
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Ask your venue about its licence early
Responsible serving comes first: under-18s are not served alcohol, and nor is anyone who has had too much.
More bar staff for larger crowds, quoted for your event.
Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
