Organising for someone else?
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Poling? 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.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
What happens on the day
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. By late September, sunset in Poling comes at roughly 7:05pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:50pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that’s the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- We arrive, set up and serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
- After service, we clear the bar away.
Before we arrive
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

How we price Mexican bar hire
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Timings and hours
- The menu you choose
- Distance and access to the venue
- Food, drinks or both
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Tell us about your event in Poling, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Common questions in Poling
Could you serve our guests after a service at The Parish Church of St Nicholas?
Yes. The church itself is not 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’ll check the access.
How far is Poling from London?
About 49 miles from central London, and we cover it.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
How much does Mexican bar hire cost in Poling?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
What’s on the drinks menu?
Margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. The drinks list is agreed with you.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
Alcohol at an event needs the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will talk licensing through with you. GOV.UK explains Temporary Event Notices.

- Plan alcohol-free drinks for drivers
- Plan water alongside the bar
- Allow time for a Temporary Event Notice if one is needed

We serve responsibly: no alcohol for under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
Tell us what glassware you need and we’ll set out the options.
Before you choose a spot
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A flat, firm spot for the bar
- A clear area in front of the bar
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Nearby historic houses include Ecclesden Manor (2 miles east). Many listed venues control who serves drinks on their premises, so ask yours what it allows. Guests travelling by rail: Arundel station is about 1.6 miles away.
