Mexican bar hire in Ower, from our food truck or trailer
The margarita is the star of the bar: lime, tequila and orange liqueur, served cold. On the menu are agua de jamaica, aguas frescas and margaritas, and it suits end-of-year parties and summer garden parties.
In a rural spot like Ower, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, as long as we can get in. We will go through the licensing with you. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Common questions in Ower
Will you travel to a small place like Ower?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
What’s the nearest station to Ower for guests?
Guests can use Totton station, about 3 miles south-east of Ower.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

How the day works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Sunset in Ower is around 9:25pm in June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. String lights or lanterns near the hatch make a later bar easier to find.
- First, we check your date.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
