Mexican bar hire for your event in Old Tree
Our bar staff serve responsibly: no alcohol for under-18s, and plenty of alcohol-free choices. For wedding drinks receptions and licensed festivals, we can serve Mexican beer, agua de jamaica and horchata.
In a rural spot like Old Tree, 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. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Space, access and the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Somewhere to park and unload nearby
- A clear area in front of the bar
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Planning drinks for every guest
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Give us numbers for children
- Pair the bar with hot food
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Share bar opening times
Our bar staff serve throughout the agreed hours, and keep the bar tidy.
Add our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Working with your venue
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Old Tree? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
How it works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Evening drinks in Old Tree stay light until about 8:45pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, which suits an outdoor bar. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.

- We talk through licensing with you.
- You choose the drinks with us.
- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
- We clear the bar at the end.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Old Tree: your questions answered
Do you cater in villages like Old Tree?
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.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of the Holy Cross?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you provide bar staff?
Yes, our bar staff serve your guests. They serve responsibly.
Do you cover Old Tree?
We do. We serve at events in Old Tree and across Kent. Send us your date to check availability.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
How much is the bar?
There is no fixed price list, because every event is different. Send your details for a quote.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Always. Aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata are alcohol-free.
