Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Whether you need disposables
- Travel, parking and access
- Serving staff
Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
Getting an accurate quote
These details help us quote quickly:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- What you’d like on the menu

Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll suggest a menu. To start, tell us about it on our contact page.
Drinks planning tips
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Find out if you need a Temporary Event Notice
- Share bar opening times
- Have plenty of water available
- Add food if the bar runs for a while
We can give allergen information for every drink.
Ask us about glassware or cups and we will set out the options.
Step by step
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. A late-September party in Norham Manor loses the light at about 7:10pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 9:00pm.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- We tidy up at the end.
How to prepare
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Norham Manor
How far is Norham Manor from central London?
About 53 miles from central London.
We are having a ceremony at Oxford Centre for Mission Studies: 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.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
What’s on the drinks menu?
Margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We plan the list with you.
How spicy is the food?
That’s your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.

Planning the serving area
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late
- The right licence for alcohol: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice
- A clear area in front of the bar
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
