Mexican bar hire in Durrants, served fresh
Alcohol at an event needs the right licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We will check the licensing with you. For end-of-year parties and engagement celebrations, we will put together a menu of agua de jamaica, alcohol-free drinks and soft drinks for your guests.
For a country party near Durrants, a drinks bar in a garden or field sets the mood. Tell us about the ground, gates, power and water. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Why choose Mexican bar hire in Durrants?
You can book it with or without catering.
We can help if you are planning any of the following:
- Wedding receptions and evening parties
- Summer garden parties
- Mexican-themed parties
- Licensed festivals
Once the ceremony at a church like St John the Baptist is over, guests may be glad of a cold drink at the reception venue.
What your quote should include
- What the price includes, item by item
- How bad weather is handled
- VAT, if it applies
- Where to see their hygiene rating
Comparing your options
Leaving guests to bring their own is easy but unpredictable. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand, including non-drinkers. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why us?
- Allergen-aware menus
- Events in Durrants and across Hampshire
- Fast service, even with a queue
- A plan agreed before the day

Popular choices
Margaritas
Margaritas suit a summer evening.
Tamarind and fruit waters
Fruit waters and tamarind, light and refreshing.
Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Step by step
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A late-September party in Durrants loses the light at about 7:05pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.
- Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
- We go through the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- After service, we clear the bar away.
Before we arrive
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Durrants
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St John the Baptist?
Yes. The church itself is not 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 will check the access.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
For event organisers in Durrants
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
