What else we do in Boarhunt
How the day works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you are unsure. A summer drinks reception in Boarhunt has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, ideal for drinks outdoors. In late September it’s dark around 7:10pm, and in December by about 4:00pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
- Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- We arrive, set up and serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

FAQs for Boarhunt
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Nicholas?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
How far is Boarhunt from central London?
Roughly 63 miles from the centre of London.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
Alcohol at an event needs the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will check the licensing with you. See GOV.UK for Temporary Event Notices.
Will someone run the bar?
Bar staff are part of the service.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
