Still deciding on the menu? That is fine: give us the basics about your event, and we will make suggestions. To start, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Room for a queue
- A flat, firm spot for the bar
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
Branstone is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.

Planning a drinks bar in Branstone
Branstone is about 5 miles south-east of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Across the PO36 area, we will come to your venue or site. Branstone is one of 125 towns and villages in the Isle of Wight we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Branstone to Portsmouth (about 12 miles away).
Once the ceremony at a church like All Saints' Church is over, guests may be glad of a cold drink at the reception venue. Historic houses near Branstone include Haseley Manor (1.2 miles north-west) and Arreton Manor (2.3 miles north-west). Grand houses and estates tend to have firm rules on alcohol and outside bars, so raise the drinks bar with them early. Drinks by the sea could work, as Branstone is within about 3 miles of the coast. Licensing on the seafront needs checking, and we will do that with you.
For Mexican bar hire in PO36, we plan around your venue and the route in. Streets in the area include Branstone Farm Lane and Stockmans Close, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. For events just outside Branstone, we cover Winford (1 mile east), Apse Heath (1 mile south-east), Princelett (1 mile south), Hale Common (1 mile west) and Newchurch (1 mile north). We also cater in nearby towns such as Newport (5 miles north-west), Ryde (5 miles north-east), Cowes (8 miles north-west), Ventnor (4 miles south), East Cowes (8 miles north-west) and Oakfield (5 miles north-east). If your event is somewhere remote, let us know early and we will plan the trip and the route in for the truck or trailer.
Nearby you’ll also find Wight Aviation Museum (1.3 miles east) and Arthur Webster Memorial Hospital for Children (1.8 miles south-east). Green spaces nearby include Alverstone Mead and Stenbury Down.
- Local schools include Sandown Bay Academy (2.1 miles east)

Drinks planning tips
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Agree bar timings in advance
- Plan water alongside the bar
- Tell us how many guests are under 18
We arrive in good time to set up the bar, so drinks are ready when you are.
Pair the bar with tacos, burritos and nachos.
Step by step
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 Branstone loses the light at about 7:10pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:55pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- We arrive, set up and serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Branstone
Will you travel to a small place like Branstone?
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.
Could you serve our guests after a service at All Saints' Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we will go through the licensing with you and your venue.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
