- Staff for serving and the bar
- The number of people
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- What power and water the site has
- The date and rough timings
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Not sure what you need yet? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. To start, send a quick message through our quote form.
Can I do a taco night 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.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
FAQs for Herstmonceux
How far is Herstmonceux from London?
About 46 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Herstmonceux Free Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you have alcohol-free drinks?
Every bar has alcohol-free choices, including aguas frescas and soft drinks.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?
Responsible serving comes first: alcohol-free drinks for under-18s, with water and alcohol-free choices on hand.
Who handles the licensing?
You’ll need either the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We talk licensing through with you before the day. See GOV.UK for Temporary Event Notices.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Why choose Mexican bar hire in Herstmonceux?
A standard bar is fine, but a Mexican bar with margaritas and aguas frescas feels like part of the theme. 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. We quote for each event individually.
