Mexican bar hire near Hadlow
Mexican bar hire in Hadlow, from our truck or trailer
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. For milestone birthdays and end-of-year and Christmas parties, we can serve aguas frescas, soft drinks and horchata and more.
In a rural spot like Hadlow, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, as long as we can get in. We will go through the licensing with you. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Perfect for your event in Hadlow
It is ideal for warm evenings in a garden, field or marquee.

Step by step
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. Winter receptions in Hadlow are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:20pm.

Tips for a smooth bar
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Agree bar timings in advance

We serve responsibly: under-18s are not served alcohol, and nor is anyone who has had too much.

Comparing your options
Leaving guests to bring their own is easy but unpredictable. A staffed bar means everyone is served. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

FAQs for Hadlow
How far is Hadlow from London?
It is about 26 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary's Church?
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.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
There are always alcohol-free options, including aguas frescas and soft drinks.
