DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Mexican bar hire in California, served fresh
Responsible serving matters to us: no alcohol for under-18s, and plenty of alcohol-free choices. It suits licensed festivals and big birthday celebrations, with margaritas, alcohol-free drinks and Mexican beer.
A drinks bar makes a party in California easy and sociable. Tell us about the drive, gates and power. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

Questions from California
What’s the nearest station to California for guests?
Guests can use Aylesbury station, which is right in California.
Do you come to events in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Do you have dairy-free options?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Can we book the bar without food?
Of course. Ask about adding tacos and burritos.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Where the truck can go in California
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Vehicle access near the bar
- Room for a queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
What we offer
- Mexican beer
- Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)
- Fruit aguas frescas
- Margaritas
- Horchata
- Soft drinks
Organising for someone else?
Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll let you know if it’s a good fit.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Tips for a smooth bar
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Think about how guests get home
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Let us know how many non-drinkers to expect
- Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers
We can give allergen information for every drink.
A choice of soft drinks.
The process
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we will adjust where we can. A summer drinks reception in California has daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that’s the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Give us a contact for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
