Mexican bar hire in Hardwick, served fresh
The drinks menu is agreed with you, around your guests, your venue and your timings. Share your ideas and we will suggest a menu. It works well for fairs and community events and engagement and anniversary parties, serving margaritas, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks.
In a rural spot like Hardwick, drinks can be served from our food truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, 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.

What Mexican bar hire costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Guest numbers
- Parking and the route in
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
Details that help
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- What power and water the site has
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The date and rough timings
To get a price, just drop us a line using the enquiry form. Give us the details of your event, and we will put together a menu and price.
Hardwick: venues, access and licensing
Hardwick is about 4 miles north of Bicester, in Oxfordshire. Whether your event is in the middle of Hardwick or on the outskirts, Mexican bar hire works the same way: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Hardwick is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover. We cater right across the region, from Hardwick to Oxford (about 15 miles away).
Historic buildings near Hardwick often have strict rules for outside caterers, so ask early if that’s your venue. If the service is at a church such as Church of St Mary, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.
We cater events across OX27 and the streets around it. Other places close to Hardwick for Mexican bar hire include Hethe (1 mile east), Stoke Lyne (1 mile south-west), Fringford (2 miles east), Bucknell (3 miles south-west) and Stratton Audley (3 miles south-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Oxford (15 miles south), Banbury (10 miles north-west), Bicester (4 miles south), Kidlington (11 miles south-west), Headington Quarry (14 miles south) and Bure Park (4 miles south).
Nearby you will also find Ardley Castle (2.8 miles south-west) and Bicester Community Hospital (4.6 miles south).
- Local pubs include Whitmore Arms Public House (1 mile east)
Working with your venue
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
How it works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Evening drinks in Hardwick stay light until about 9:00pm in late May and 9:30pm in late June, which suits an outdoor bar. String lights or lanterns near the hatch make a later bar easier to find.
- First, we check your date.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Before we arrive
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

Common questions in Hardwick
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: 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.
Which station should guests use for Hardwick?
Bicester North station, about 4.2 miles south of the centre.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Who clears up?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
