A Mexican drinks bar in Drellingore: local tips
Drellingore is about 2 miles east of Hawkinge, in Kent. Tell us where your event in Drellingore will be, and we will plan the journey and set-up before the day. Drellingore is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring Mexican bar hire. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 12 miles away.
Historic buildings near Drellingore often have strict rules for outside caterers, so ask early if that’s your venue. Couples leaving a church such as Church of St Michael could be greeted with margaritas and aguas frescas at the reception. Drellingore is within about 5 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, a lovely setting for drinks outdoors. Ask your venue about vehicle access for the truck or trailer. With the sea within about 4 miles, a seaside drinks reception is an option. Seafront spots generally need permission, especially for alcohol, and the truck or trailer needs firm ground.

Can I do a taco night myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Planning the serving area
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
