Mexican bar hire for your event in Lidsey

Margaritas are the centrepiece: tequila, lime and orange liqueur over ice, with or without a salted rim. For anniversaries and engagements and client events and launches, we’ll put together a menu of Mexican beer, aguas frescas and margaritas.

In a rural spot like Lidsey, drinks can be served from our food truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, as long as we can get in. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Our caterer checklist

Should I do it myself?

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
