Mexican bar hire for Betsham events
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
How our Mexican bar hire works in Betsham
We plan the drinks list together, around your guests, your venue and your timings. Share your ideas and we will suggest a menu. It suits milestone birthdays and taco nights and themed parties, serving horchata, alcohol-free drinks and Mexican beer.
Near Betsham, a drinks bar suits a garden, barn or field party. Tell us about the ground, gates, power and water. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
What happens on the day
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. A late-September party in Betsham loses the light at about 7:00pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
- We check the licensing with you: 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.

For event organisers in Betsham
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Planning the serving area
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Room for a queue
- Licensing checked with you before the day
- A flat, firm spot for the bar
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How far is Betsham from central London?
It’s about 18 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Where do you cater?

Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Mexican bar hire or something else?
If you are serving Mexican food, margaritas and Mexican beer fit perfectly. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
