- The date and rough timings
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both

How the day works
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. At midsummer, it is light in Plaish until about 9:20pm, ideal for drinks outdoors. In late September it is dark around 7:10pm, and in December by about 4:00pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Planning help
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Plaish
Will you travel to a small place like Plaish?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Can you serve near the sea around Plaish?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots generally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
What can we have at the bar?
Our bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Do you cover Plaish?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Plaish and the rest of the Isle of Wight. To check your date, tell us about it on our contact page.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
