Mexican bar hire for Horden events
Mexican bar hire in Horden, served fresh
We plan the drinks list together, to suit your guests and timings. Share your ideas and we’ll suggest a menu. We serve soft drinks, horchata and margaritas, which works well for milestone birthdays and end-of-year and Christmas parties.
In a rural spot like Horden, drinks can be served from our food truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, given access. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
How it compares
Running your own bar means checking licensing, stock and staff yourself. We will go through the licensing with you and bring bar staff. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Step by step
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure. At midsummer, it is light in Horden until about 9:15pm, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:00pm, and in December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Planning a drinks bar in Horden
Horden is about 6 miles south-east of Paddock Wood, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Horden or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. We serve in 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Horden to Maidstone (9 miles away).
Older venues around Horden may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before you book. Anyone leaving the car at home will want to know that the nearest station is Marden station, about 2.9 miles north. With the High Weald National Landscape within about 4 miles, a countryside drinks reception is an option. Check how the venue handles outside bars and vehicles.
Here we cover the TN17 and TN12 postcode area, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Local streets include Hill Top and Husheath Hill; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. If your venue is just outside Horden, we also cover Colliers Green (1 mile south), Flishinghurst (2 miles south), Marden Thorn (2 miles north), Knox Bridge (2 miles east) and Cranbrook Common (3 miles east). Within a short drive, we also cover Maidstone (9 miles north), Royal Tunbridge Wells (10 miles west), Tonbridge (11 miles north-west), Kings Hill (10 miles north-west), Foley Park (10 miles north) and Paddock Wood (6 miles north-west).
A little further out are Sissinghurst Castle (3.6 miles east) and Brattle Farm Museum (2 miles north-east).
Common questions in Horden
Is it possible to have you in The Gill?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Do you have alcohol-free drinks?
Yes. Aguas frescas and soft drinks are alcohol-free.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Horden.
What can we have at the bar?
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, plus soft drinks. We plan the list with you.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
