What happens on the day
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t typically stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Evening drinks in Cross Gate stay light until about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- We tidy up at the end.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Cross Gate
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Is Cross Gate close to London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
What does Mexican bar hire cost?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you have alcohol-free drinks?
There are always alcohol-free options, including aguas frescas and soft drinks.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
