How our Mexican bar hire works in Birchden
Aguas frescas are Mexico’s fresh fruit and flower drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re alcohol-free, so every guest can enjoy them. It works well for fairs and community events and milestone birthdays, with agua de jamaica, horchata and soft drinks.
In a rural spot like Birchden, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, as long as we can get in. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

A Mexican drinks bar in Birchden: local tips
Birchden is about 4 miles south-west of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in Kent. We cater events at gardens, halls and venues around Birchden. We cover all 922 towns and villages in Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 24 miles away.
Around Birchden, historic houses include Groombridge Place (0.8 miles north) and Bassetts Manor (4.4 miles west). Before booking a historic venue, find out whether it lets an outside bar bring a vehicle on site. Once the ceremony at a church like Church of St Thomas the Apostle is over, guests may be glad of a cold drink at the reception venue. An outdoor bar near the High Weald National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Birchden, needs firm ground and a way in, plus the right licensing, which we will check with you.

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run behind, let us know and we will adjust where we can. A summer drinks reception in Birchden has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, ideal for drinks outdoors. In late September it’s dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- First, we check your date.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- We tidy up at the end.
Before we arrive
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Let us know the timings for the day
How to get a price
Still deciding on the menu? That’s fine: give us the basics about your event, and we will suggest a menu. To start, fill in our quote form.

What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Licensing checked with you before the day
- Space for guests to queue at the bar
- Agreement from the venue for our bar
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.

Birchden questions

Roughly 30 miles from the centre of London.
How much is the bar?
We don’t publish set prices, because every event is different. Send your details for a quote.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.

Yes, our bar staff serve your guests. They serve responsibly.
