Mexican bar hire in East Shalford, served fresh
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We go through the licensing with you before the day. For end-of-year and Christmas parties and festivals and fairs, we can serve Mexican beer, margaritas and aguas frescas.
In a rural spot like East Shalford, drinks can be served from our food truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, as long as we can get in. We will go through the licensing with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

We cater across London and the South East, Surrey included. Find your area.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?

The process
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. A late-September party in East Shalford 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.

- We talk through licensing with you, whether that’s 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.
