Common questions in Lydd-on-Sea
We’re having a ceremony at St Peter's: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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 will check the access.
Do you cater in villages like Lydd-on-Sea?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
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.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Every bar has alcohol-free choices, from aguas frescas to soft drinks.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.
Drinks planning tips
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Tell us how many guests are under 18
- Agree bar timings in advance
- Share taxi numbers with guests
- Pair the bar with hot food
We serve responsibly: no alcohol for under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
Alcohol-free aguas frescas for all ages.
What happens on the day
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. At midsummer, it is light in Lydd-on-Sea until about 9:15pm, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. In late September it’s dark around 7:00pm, and in December by about 3:50pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
