Planning a drinks bar in Chelsham

Chelsham is about 3 miles north-east of Caterham, in Surrey. For Mexican bar hire in Chelsham, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access in and around Chelsham. Chelsham is one of 395 towns and villages in Surrey where we can bring Mexican bar hire. We cater right across the region, from Chelsham to London (about 13 miles away).

A gathering in Ledgers Wood? Check the park’s rules first, as alcohol and vehicles generally need permission. Nearby historic houses include Addington Palace (3 miles north) and Titsey Place (3.3 miles south-east). Before booking a historic venue, find out whether it lets an outside bar bring a vehicle on site.

Anywhere in CR6, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. From Chelsham Common and Chelsham Road or anywhere nearby, we can bring Mexican bar hire there, given access. For events just outside Chelsham, we cover Farleigh (1 mile north), Warlingham (1 mile west), Hamsey Green (1 mile west), Fickleshole (1 mile north-east) and New Addington (2 miles north). Further out, we also cater in Epsom (10 miles west), Horley (11 miles south-west), Redhill (8 miles south-west), Ewell (10 miles west), Reigate (9 miles south-west) and Caterham (3 miles south-west).

Common questions in Chelsham

How far is Chelsham from central London?

About 13 miles from central London, and we cover it.

Could you serve in Ledgers Wood?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.

Do you need electricity?

That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.

Can guests build their own tacos?

We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.

Where do you cater?

London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.

Can you plan for allergies?

Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

Can you do gluten-free food?

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.

Are plates and napkins included?

Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

How to compare caterers

Working with your venue

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 is a good fit.

Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

How the day works

Here’s how the day typically runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. A summer drinks reception in Chelsham has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
  2. We go through the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
  3. You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
  4. We arrive, set up and serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
  5. After service, we clear the bar away.

Preparing for the day

  • Ask the venue about power and water
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Give us a contact for the day
