About our Mexican bar hire in East Marden
A Mexican drinks bar brings margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas to your event, with bar staff to serve your guests. It works on its own or alongside our food. For wedding receptions and evening parties and product launches and client events, we’ll put together a menu of horchata, aguas frescas and Mexican beer and more.
In a rural spot like East Marden, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, as long as we can get in. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

East Marden: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Peter: can you cater afterwards?
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 cater in villages like East Marden?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can we book the bar without food?
Of course. Ask about adding tacos and burritos.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you cater in East Marden?
We do. We serve at events in East Marden and across West Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
You’ll need either the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We talk licensing through with you before the day. See GOV.UK for Temporary Event Notices.
What does Mexican bar hire cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.

What happens on the day
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. By late September, sunset in East Marden comes at roughly 7:05pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.

What else we do in East Marden
Mexican bar hire or something else?
A standard bar is fine, but a Mexican bar with margaritas and aguas frescas feels like part of the theme. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Planning drinks for every guest
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Pair the bar with hot food
- Make sure drivers have good choices
- Share bar opening times
- Plan water alongside the bar
Responsible serving comes first: under-18s are not served alcohol, and nor is anyone who has had too much.
More bar staff for larger crowds, quoted for your event.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
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. Our taco bar guide explains how.
