Mexican bar hire in Cowley, served fresh
Aguas frescas are Mexico’s fresh fruit and flower drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re alcohol-free, so every guest can enjoy them. We serve alcohol-free drinks, Mexican beer and margaritas, which works well for taco nights and themed parties and summer garden parties.
A drinks bar makes a party in Cowley easy and sociable. Let us know about access and power. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

How the day works
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we have agreed, planned around your event. A late-September party in Cowley 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 9:00pm.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We talk licensing through with you.
- You choose the drinks with us.
- We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
- We clear the bar at the end.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Tell us when you want service to start

Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Drinks planning tips
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Have plenty of water available
- Give the council notice in good time for a Temporary Event Notice
- Plan transport home for guests
- Ask your venue about its licence early
We set up the bar before guests arrive, so drinks are ready when you are.
Pair the bar with tacos, burritos and nachos.
