DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Why choose Mexican bar hire in Lordswood?
A drinks bar with a theme gives guests something to talk about, more than a standard bar.
A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Typical bookings include:
- Winter celebrations
- Engagement celebrations
- Wedding drinks receptions
- Licensed festivals
Serving alcohol in South Wood would need the owner’s permission and probably a licence, so a garden or venue is often simpler.
What your quote should include
- A clear list of what’s included
- Where to see their hygiene rating
- The deadline for final numbers
- How dietary needs and allergies are handled

Lordswood questions
Is Lordswood close to London?
It is about 30 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Is it possible to have you in South 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.
Do you have dairy-free options?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not usually stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Who handles the licensing?
It depends on the venue. If the venue has no licence, a Temporary Event Notice may be needed. We talk it through with you.
Will someone run the bar?
Yes, our bar staff serve your guests. They serve responsibly.
Comparing your options
DIY drinks tables are easy but need constant topping up. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
