Mexican bar hire for Fontwell events
About our Mexican bar hire in Fontwell
Aguas frescas are Mexico’s fresh fruit and flower drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re alcohol-free, so every guest can enjoy them. At garden parties and engagement celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of Mexican beer, soft drinks and alcohol-free drinks.
Near Fontwell, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, as long as we can get in. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Planning the bar
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Think about how guests get home
- Ensure there is water for guests
- Collect allergy details in advance
- Ask your venue about its licence early
We arrive in good time to set up the bar, so drinks are ready when you are.
Add our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos.
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.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Planning the serving area
We will be honest if a space will not work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Space for guests to queue at the bar
- Access to unload close to the bar spot
- The venue’s permission for an outside bar
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Questions from Fontwell
Do you cater at coastal events near Fontwell?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
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 much does the drinks bar cost?
There’s no fixed price list, because every event is different. Tell us your plans for a quote.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
How much does Mexican bar hire cost in Fontwell?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we’ll reply with a 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. Read our taco bar guide.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Mexican bar hire or something else?
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand. Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
