Planning a drinks bar in Ford
Ford is about 2 miles north-west of Littlehampton, in West Sussex. Events in Ford are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. Ford is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we can bring Mexican bar hire. We cater right across the region, from Ford to Brighton (about 20 miles away).
Older venues around Ford may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before you book. A drinks bar at a garden or hall near a church like The Parish Church of St Andrew gives guests something to enjoy while photos are taken. With the South Downs National Park within about 6 miles, a countryside drinks reception is an option. Check how the venue handles outside bars and vehicles. The coast is within about 3 miles, close enough for drinks by the sea. Seafront spots typically need permission, especially for alcohol, and the truck or trailer needs firm ground.
We cater events across BN18 and the streets around it. Your event could be at a home on Station Road, Ford Road and Rodney Crescent.

Common questions in Ford
Could you come to a seaside event near Ford?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots generally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
We’re having a ceremony at The Parish Church of St Andrew: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you come to Ford?
We do. Ford is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Will someone run the bar?
Yes, our bar staff serve your guests. They serve responsibly.
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. For alcohol, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Tips for a smooth bar
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Serve food alongside the drinks
- Tell us when the bar should open and close
- Plan any Temporary Event Notice well ahead
- Have plenty of water available
Bar staff serve for the agreed times.
A choice of soft drinks.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
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.
