How our Mexican bar hire works in Brandfold
Aguas frescas are light, fruity drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re a good alcohol-free choice for everyone. Popular choices include alcohol-free drinks, horchata and aguas frescas, and it suits wedding receptions and evening parties and mexican-themed parties.

Drinks receptions around Brandfold
Brandfold is about 8 miles east of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in Kent. Events in Brandfold are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We cater in all 922 towns and villages across Kent. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Brandfold to Canterbury (29 miles away).
Serving alcohol in The Gill would need the owner’s permission and probably a licence, so a garden or venue is often simpler. For guests coming by train, Marden station is about 3.4 miles away.

Common questions in Brandfold
Can you bring your truck or trailer to The Gill?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear 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). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you have alcohol-free drinks?
There are always alcohol-free options, including aguas frescas and soft drinks.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will talk licensing through with you.
Do you cater in Brandfold?
We do. We serve at events in Brandfold and across Kent. Send us your date to check availability.

How it works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. A summer drinks reception in Brandfold has daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. In late September it is dark around 7:00pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- 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.
- After service, we clear the bar away.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
Getting a price
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Mexican bar hire or something else?
A self-service drinks table is simple but can run dry or go warm. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
