Mexican bar hire in Godshill, from our truck or trailer
Pair the bar with our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos, so food and drinks come from one booking. We serve margaritas, agua de jamaica and Mexican beer, and it suits licensed festivals and end-of-year parties.
Near Godshill, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, as long as we can get in. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
The process
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Sunset in Godshill is around 9:25pm in June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.

What Mexican bar hire costs
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Timings and hours
- Guest numbers
- Staff for serving and the bar
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.

Common questions in Godshill
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Giles?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Do you come to events in the New Forest 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.
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). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Can we have the bar on its own?
Of course. Ask about adding tacos and burritos.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service normally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
How much is the bar?
Every bar is quoted for individually, based on numbers, drinks and hours. Contact us for a quote.
