Drinks bars for events in Maidenbower

Maidenbower is about 2 miles east of Crawley, in West Sussex. Anywhere in RH10, we’ll come to your venue or site. Maidenbower is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 19 miles away.

For guests coming by train, the nearest station is Three Bridges station, about 1.1 miles north-west. If you’re looking at a historic venue around Maidenbower, check its rules on outside bars and vehicles early. An outdoor bar near the High Weald National Landscape, within about 8 miles of Maidenbower, needs firm ground and a way in, plus the right licensing, which we will check with you.

We cater events across RH10 and the streets around it. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Holder Road, Palmer Road and Casher Road or the roads around them. Nearby, we also cater events in Worth (1 mile north), Three Bridges (1 mile north-west), Tilgate (1 mile west), Pound Hill (1 mile north) and Crawley (2 miles west). We also cater in nearby towns such as Horsham (8 miles west), Haywards Heath (8 miles south), Burgess Hill (10 miles south), East Grinstead (6 miles east), Broadfield (3 miles west) and Billingshurst (14 miles south-west).

A little further out are Crawley Museum (2 miles north-west) and Crawley Hospital (2.3 miles north-west). Open spaces near Maidenbower include Tilgate Lake.

  • Local pubs include The Charcoal Burner pub (0.9 miles west)

Organising for someone else?

Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.

For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

How the day works

A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Sunset in Maidenbower is around 9:20pm in June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. String lights or lanterns near the hatch make a later bar easier to find.

  1. We check availability.
  2. We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
  3. We agree where the bar goes.
  4. We set up and serve on cue.
  5. We tidy up at the end.

Preparing for the day

  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Maidenbower questions

Could you serve in Tilgate Park?

Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.

Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.

Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?

Alcohol at an event needs the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We’ll check the licensing with you. GOV.UK explains Temporary Event Notices.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain does not usually stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.

When do you arrive?

We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.

What food and drinks do you offer?

We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.

Can we have the bar on its own?

You can. Book the bar on its own.

Is there something for non-drinkers?

There are always alcohol-free options, from aguas frescas to soft drinks.

Planning drinks for every guest

To get the most from the bar, it helps to:

  • Plan any Temporary Event Notice well ahead
  • Add food if the bar runs for a while
  • Think about how guests get home
  • Agree bar timings in advance

Bar staff serve for the agreed times, and keep the bar tidy.

Aguas frescas for children and non-drinkers.

What affects the price in Maidenbower

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • Guest numbers
  • Whether you need disposables
  • Food, drinks or both
  • The length of service

A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Getting an accurate quote

The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • Expected numbers
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • The address or venue name
  • What you’d like on the menu

We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, send a quick message through our quote form.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

A closer look at the menu

Mexican beer

Cold Mexican lager with lime, ideal with tacos.

Margaritas

A classic margarita, served cold, with or without a salted rim.

Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?

Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A staffed bar means everyone is served. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.

What you get with us

  • Every guest catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included
  • Menus chosen with you
  • Quoted for your event
  • A plan agreed before the day

Read our pricing or the cost guide.

Space, access and the venue

We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • Space for guests to queue at the bar
  • Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
  • Permission from the venue or landowner

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
