Planning a drinks bar in Dunsbury
Dunsbury is about 7 miles south-west of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Whether your event is in the middle of Dunsbury or on the outskirts, Mexican bar hire works the same way: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Dunsbury is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight where we can bring Mexican bar hire. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 18 miles away.
Older venues around Dunsbury may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before booking. Couples leaving a church such as St. Mary's Church could be greeted with margaritas and aguas frescas at the reception. The coast is within about 4 miles of Dunsbury. Wind, sand and the rules on alcohol in public places all need planning for a seaside bar.
Mexican bar hire in PO30 is planned around your venue and access. We also serve at events in Brook (1 mile south), Hulverstone (1 mile south-east), Brookgreen (1 mile south-east), Shalcombe (1 mile north-east) and Chilton Green (2 miles south-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Newport (7 miles north-east), Ryde (14 miles east), Cowes (9 miles north-east), Sandown (13 miles east), Shanklin (12 miles east) and Ventnor (12 miles east). Remote venues take a little more planning, so contact us in good time about access, ground and power.
A little further out are Yarmouth Castle (3.9 miles north-west) and Calbourne Water Mill And Rural Museum (2.3 miles north-east). Open spaces near Dunsbury include Westover Down.
Comparing your options
Some bars offer little for non-drinkers. Aguas frescas give them something special. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What you get with us
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Allergen information for every dish

Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Prices and what affects them
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- How many guests we’re serving
- How long we’re needed on site
- How many staff you need
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- What you’d like on the menu
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Where the event is
- The date and time of the event
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Firm, level ground where we can set up
- Access to unload close to the bar spot
- Room for a queue
Dunsbury is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.

Common questions in Dunsbury
Do you come out to small places like Dunsbury?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St. Mary's Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Do you check ages at the bar?
Responsible serving comes first: under-18s get alcohol-free drinks only, and we offer water and alcohol-free choices throughout.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
Alcohol at an event needs the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will check the licensing with you. GOV.UK explains Temporary Event Notices.
Do you give allergen information?
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.
Is the food very hot?
That’s your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
How much does the drinks bar cost?
There is no fixed price list, as each event is different. Tell us your plans for a quote.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Organising for someone else?
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. In December, the light goes in Dunsbury at about 4:05pm, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:20pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We go through the licensing with you.
- We agree a drinks menu.
- We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
- We clear the bar at the end.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
