Mexican bar hire or something else?
A standard bar is fine, but margaritas and aguas frescas give the bar character. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Questions from Kingsnorth
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Michael: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
What does Mexican bar hire cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Do you do drinks only?
You can. Book the bar on its own, or with our Mexican catering.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
You will need either the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will talk licensing through with you. See GOV.UK for Temporary Event Notices.
