Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Elson
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Thomas?
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’ll check the access.
How far is Elson from London?
About 66 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Elson.

For a drinks-led event, rail details help, and Portsmouth Harbour station is about 2.1 miles away. The coast is within about 4 miles of Elson. Wind, sand and the rules on alcohol in public places all need planning for a seaside bar.

The process
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. In December, the light goes in Elson at about 4:00pm, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:20pm.
- First, we check your date.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Find out what power and water are available
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Planning help
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
