Mexican bar hire in Pains-Hill, from our truck or trailer

Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We’ll check the licensing with you. It works well for garden parties and winter celebrations, with margaritas, alcohol-free drinks and Mexican beer.

In a rural spot like Pains-Hill, 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 cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Questions to ask before booking

Can I do a taco night myself?

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.

How it works

We work to your timings. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. A summer drinks reception in Pains-Hill has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. In late September it is dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.

  1. Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
  2. We talk through licensing with you, whether that’s the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
  3. We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
  4. We arrive, set up and serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
  5. We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Find out what power and water are available

Common questions in Pains-Hill

Can you cater a reception after a service at St Andrew's?

Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.

What’s the nearest station to Pains-Hill for guests?

Guests can use Hurst Green station, about 0.9 miles west of Pains-Hill.

Do you check ages at the bar?

Responsible serving comes first: alcohol-free drinks for under-18s, and we offer water and alcohol-free choices throughout.

Can we have the bar on its own?

Yes, though it pairs well with tacos. Ask about adding tacos and burritos.

Are plates and napkins included?

We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.

What does a Mexican bar cost?

We don’t publish set prices, because every event is different. Tell us your plans for a quote.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.

How spicy is the food?

It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.

Organising for someone else?

Organising a club, school or community event in Pains-Hill? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.

Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
