Fairlight questions

How far is Fairlight from London?

Roughly 54 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.

Can you serve near the sea around Fairlight?

Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.

Can you run a bar?

Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.

Do you take everything away?

We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.

Do you serve responsibly?

Our bar staff serve responsibly: under-18s get alcohol-free drinks only, with water and alcohol-free choices on hand.

Can you come to a private house?

It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we will talk it through.

What if the weather’s bad?

We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

Are plates and napkins included?

Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

Drinks bars for events in Fairlight

Fairlight is about 4 miles east of Hastings, in East Sussex. For an event in Fairlight, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access in and around Fairlight. Fairlight is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we can bring Mexican bar hire. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Fairlight to Brighton (34 miles away).

Older venues around Fairlight may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before you book. A gathering in Speckled Wood? Check the park’s rules first, as alcohol and vehicles usually need permission. The coast is within about 4 miles of Fairlight. Wind, sand and the rules on alcohol in public places all need planning for a seaside bar.

Wherever your event is in TN35, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. Your event could be at a home on Hill Road, The Close and Lower Coastguard Lane or the roads around them. We also serve at events in Fairlight Cove (1 mile east), Friar's Hill (1 mile north), Guestling (1 mile north-west), Bachelor's Bump (1 mile west) and Guestling Green (1 mile north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Hastings (4 miles west), Bexhill-on-Sea (8 miles west), St Leonards (4 miles west), Hastings Old Town (3 miles south-west), Belmont (3 miles south-west) and Langney (15 miles west).

Other landmarks nearby include Hastings Old Town Hall Museum (2.7 miles south-west) and Conquest Hospital (3.4 miles west). Open spaces near Fairlight include Church Wood and Robsack Wood.

Tips for a smooth bar

To get the most from the bar, it helps to:

  • Find out if you need a Temporary Event Notice
  • Collect allergy details in advance
  • Tell us how many guests are under 18
  • Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers

After service, we clear the bar away.

Pair the bar with tacos, burritos and nachos.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

What affects the price in Fairlight

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • Serving staff
  • How long we are needed on site
  • What’s on the menu
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery

Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

What we need to know

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • The address or venue name
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • The date and time of the event
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, use our quote form.

Our caterer checklist

The process

Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. By late September, sunset in Fairlight comes at roughly 7:00pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:45pm.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We talk through licensing with you.
  3. We agree a drinks menu.
  4. We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
  5. We pack down when the bar closes.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
  • Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Getting a price
