Mexican bar hire in Pett Bottom, served fresh
Alcohol at an event needs the right licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We check the licensing with you before the day. At end-of-year parties and anniversaries and engagements, we will put together a menu of Mexican beer, alcohol-free drinks and horchata and more.
In a rural spot like Pett Bottom, 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. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
