How it compares
DIY drinks tables are easy but need constant topping up. Bar staff keep drinks flowing and cold. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

FAQs for Hawkhurst
Is it possible to have you in Collingwood Nature Reserve?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
How far is Hawkhurst from central London?
It is about 41 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you check ages at the bar?
Always. Under-18s aren’t served alcohol, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Always. Aguas frescas and soft drinks are alcohol-free.
What does a Mexican bar cost?
We quote for each event, based on numbers, drinks and hours. Contact us for a quote.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
Alcohol at an event needs the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We’ll check the licensing with you. See GOV.UK for Temporary Event Notices.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

Parks such as Collingwood Nature Reserve have their own rules on vehicles and alcohol, so check before planning a drinks bar there. An outdoor bar near the High Weald National Landscape, within about 4 miles of Hawkhurst, needs firm ground and a way in, plus the right licensing, which we’ll check with you.

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
The process
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A summer drinks reception in Hawkhurst has daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, ideal for drinks outdoors. In late September it’s dark around 7:00pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
