Mexican bar hire for Ewhurst events
Ewhurst: your questions answered
Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Which station should guests use for Ewhurst?
The closest is Ockley station, roughly 4.5 miles away.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will suggest the best set-up.
What can we have at the bar?
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, plus soft drinks. We plan the list with you.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you check ages at the bar?
Our bar staff serve responsibly: under-18s get alcohol-free drinks only, with water and alcohol-free choices on hand.
Mexican bar hire for your event in Ewhurst
Alcohol at an event needs the right licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We’ll talk licensing through with you. It works well for wedding drinks receptions and licensed festivals, serving Mexican beer, margaritas and horchata.
In a rural spot like Ewhurst, 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 check the licensing with you. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
What we need at the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Level, firm ground for the bar set-up
- Access to unload close to the bar spot
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we offer

- Margaritas
- Fruit aguas frescas
- Mexican beer

For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.

Tips for a smooth bar
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Make sure there’s water for guests
- Plan alcohol-free drinks for drivers
- Add food if the bar runs for a while
- Tell us when the bar should open and close
We set up the bar before guests arrive, so drinks are ready when you are.
Ask us about glassware or cups and we will set out the options.
Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. At midsummer, it is light in Ewhurst until about 9:20pm, ideal for drinks outdoors. In late September it’s dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- First, we check your date.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
