North Stoneham: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at St. Nicolas' Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Will you travel to a small place like North Stoneham?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Do you check ages at the bar?
Always. No alcohol is served to under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
Mexican bar hire in North Stoneham, served fresh
Margaritas are the centrepiece: tequila, lime and orange liqueur over ice, with or without a salted rim. At garden get-togethers and end-of-year parties, we can serve agua de jamaica, soft drinks and margaritas.
In a rural spot like North Stoneham, 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. We’ll check the licensing with you. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Planning the bar
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Make sure drivers have good choices
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Give the council notice in good time for a Temporary Event Notice
- Ensure there is water for guests
Allergen information is available for every drink.
Ask us about glassware or cups and we’ll confirm the options with your quote.
The process
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Winter receptions in North Stoneham are dark by about 4:00pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:25pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- We arrive, set up and serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Drinks receptions around North Stoneham
North Stoneham is about 2 miles south-west of Eastleigh, in Hampshire. From the centre of North Stoneham to the outskirts, Mexican bar hire works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cover 683 places in Hampshire.
Guests travelling by rail: the nearest station is Southampton Airport Parkway station, about 0.8 miles south-east. If the service is at a church such as St. Nicolas' Church, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. The coast is within about 4 miles of North Stoneham. Wind, sand and the rules on alcohol in public places all need planning for a seaside bar.

Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Serving staff
- The menu you choose
- Distance and access to the venue
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican bar hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Expected numbers
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The address or venue name
- A picture of where we’d park
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we will make suggestions. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
