Mexican bar hire in Key's Green, from our food truck or trailer
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We check the licensing with you before the day. Popular choices include horchata, aguas frescas and agua de jamaica, which works well for licensed festivals and weddings, day or evening.
Near Key's Green, a drinks bar suits a garden, barn or field party. Let us know about access and soft ground. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Drinks receptions around Key's Green
Key's Green is about 4 miles east of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in Kent. From the centre of Key's Green to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Key's Green is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we can bring Mexican bar hire. We cater right across the region, from Key's Green to Brighton (30 miles away).
Guests travelling by rail: Frant station is about 3.5 miles away. If the service is at a church such as Chapel Of Ease Of St Luke, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. With the High Weald National Landscape within about 5 miles, a countryside drinks reception is an option. Check how the venue handles outside bars and vehicles.
This part of Kent takes in TN12, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. From Cryals Road and Beech Lane or a nearby road, we’ll plan where to park and serve. For events just outside Key's Green, we cover Lamberhurst Quarter (1 mile south), Petteridge (1 mile north-east), Pembury (2 miles north-west), Matfield (2 miles north-east) and Brenchley (2 miles north-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Maidstone (12 miles north-east), Sevenoaks (13 miles north-west), Royal Tunbridge Wells (4 miles west), Tonbridge (6 miles north-west), Kings Hill (10 miles north) and Foley Park (13 miles north-east).

- Local pubs include The Blue Boys Inn (within half a mile west)

Common questions in Key's Green
What’s the nearest station to Key's Green for guests?
The closest is Frant station, roughly 3.5 miles away.
Could you serve in Brenchley Wood?
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.
When do you arrive?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Do you do parties at home?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
It depends on the venue. If the venue has no licence, a Temporary Event Notice may be needed. We talk it through with you.
How the day works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. By late September, sunset in Key's Green comes at roughly 7:00pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- We tidy up at the end.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
