About our Mexican bar hire in Elsted
Alcohol at an event needs the right licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We go through the licensing with you before the day. At company summer parties and summer garden parties, we can serve horchata, alcohol-free drinks and soft drinks for your guests.
Near Elsted, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, given access. We’ll go through the licensing with you. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Elsted
How far is Elsted from central London?
About 49 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Do you come out to small places like Elsted?
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.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Yes. Aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata are alcohol-free.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?
Always. No alcohol is served to under-18s, and anyone who has had too much won’t be served more.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
How it compares
Non-drinkers often get only soft drinks. Aguas frescas give them something special. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
Why us?
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
- A menu built around your guests
- Allergen-aware menus
- Access, space and power checked in advance

Tips for a smooth bar
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:

- Give us numbers for children
If timings change, tell us and we’ll adjust.

How we price Mexican bar hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Timings and hours
- Parking and the route in
- The number of people
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
