How we price Mexican bar hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Travel, parking and access
- The menu you choose
- The length of service
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

In late September it is dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 4:00pm, so evening bars need lighting.

Nursted questions
Is Nursted close to London?
About 50 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Do you cater in villages like Nursted?
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.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you check ages at the bar?
Our bar staff serve responsibly: under-18s get alcohol-free drinks only, with water and alcohol-free choices on hand.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
That depends on your venue. If the venue has no licence, a Temporary Event Notice may be needed. We talk it through with you.
