Near Horton, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, given access. We will go through the licensing with you. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A clear area in front of the bar
- The venue’s permission for an outside bar
- A flat, firm spot for the bar
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

How it works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Winter receptions in Horton are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so plan where guests will gather, and how it will be lit. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We check the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Questions from Horton
Do you come out to small places like Horton?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Horton for guests?
Guests can use Chessington South station, about 0.9 miles north-west of Horton.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
That depends on your venue. Some venues have a premises licence; others need a Temporary Event Notice. We talk it through with you.

Do you have gluten-free options?
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.
Can we have the bar on its own?
Of course. Our Mexican catering can be added too.

Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- The menu you choose
- What the venue already provides
- Parking and the route in
- How many guests we’re serving
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.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- What power and water the site has
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.
Comparing your options
DIY drinks tables are easy but need constant topping up. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.
