Mexican bar hire for Horne events
Mexican bar hire in Horne, served fresh
Alcohol at an event needs the right licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We go through the licensing with you before the day. It suits winter celebrations and garden parties, serving soft drinks, Mexican beer and horchata.
Near Horne, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, given access. We’ll check the licensing with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.
Tips for a smooth bar
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Plan transport home for guests
- Let us know how many non-drinkers to expect
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers
Allergen information is available for every drink.
Alcohol-free aguas frescas for all ages.

Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
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.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. A summer drinks reception in Horne has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. In late September it is dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.

FAQs for Horne
Do you cater 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 far is Horne from central London?
About 22 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will recommend how to serve.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What can we have at the bar?
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, plus soft drinks. The drinks list is agreed with you.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Why choose Mexican bar hire in Horne?
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A staffed bar means everyone is served, including non-drinkers. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
