How our Mexican bar hire works in Pested
Our bar travels to events across Pested and nearby: from weddings and parties to work events. It works well for company summer parties and weddings, day or evening, with margaritas, agua de jamaica and soft drinks.
Near Pested, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, given access. We will go through the licensing with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Planning the bar
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Plan water alongside the bar
- Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers
- Ask guests about allergies
- Plan any Temporary Event Notice well ahead
We arrive in good time to set up the bar.
Soft drinks for drivers.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Pested: your questions answered
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Peter: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
What’s on the drinks menu?
Our bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata, plus alcohol-free choices.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Pested.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How spicy is the food?
It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Do you bring staff to serve the drinks?
Bar staff are part of the service.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll suggest the best set-up.

How the day works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps.

- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- We set up and serve on cue.
