Mexican bar hire for your event in Eastwood
Alcohol at an event needs the right licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will check the licensing with you. Popular choices include aguas frescas, soft drinks and horchata, which works well for end-of-year and Christmas parties and taco nights and themed parties.
For a country party near Eastwood, a drinks bar in a garden or field sets the mood. Let us know about access and soft ground. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
Should I do it myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
How it works
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. A summer drinks reception in Eastwood has daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. In late September it’s dark around 7:00pm, and in December by about 3:50pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Questions from Eastwood
Do you cater in villages like Eastwood?
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.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?
Always. Under-18s are not served alcohol, and anyone who has had too much will not be served more.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
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.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
