Planning a drinks bar in Osney

Osney is about 2 miles west of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. For an event in Osney, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access. Osney is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire where we can bring Mexican bar hire.

Historic houses near Osney include Holywell Manor, Oxford (1.2 miles east) and Appleton Manor (4.6 miles south-west). Many listed venues control who serves drinks on their premises, so ask yours what it allows. If you have your heart set on Raleigh Park, ask the people who run it about vehicles, alcohol and licensing first.

We cater events across OX1 and OX2 and the streets around it. Local streets include New Road, Helen Road and Osney Lane; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

Should I do it myself?

Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

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.

Organising for someone else?

If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

How it works

On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. At midsummer, it is light in Osney until about 9:25pm, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. In late September it is dark around 7:10pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. We talk through licensing with you.
  3. You choose the drinks with us.
  4. Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
  5. We pack down when the bar closes.

Getting ready for the day

  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Osney

Which station should guests use for Osney?

Oxford station, in Osney itself.

Could you serve in Raleigh Park?

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

Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?

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

What access do you need?

The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.

Do you do parties at home?

Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

How big an event can you cater?

It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.

Do you bring staff to serve the drinks?

Yes, our bar staff serve your guests. Responsible serving comes first.

Can you do dairy-free food?

Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will include them in the plan.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
  • Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
