Mexican bar hire for Poynings events
How our Mexican bar hire works in Poynings
A Mexican drinks bar brings margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas to your event, with bar staff to serve your guests. You can book it alone or with our Mexican catering. For wedding receptions and evening parties and milestone birthdays, we will put together a menu of margaritas, agua de jamaica and aguas frescas and more.
In a rural spot like Poynings, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, given access. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Drinks bars for events in Poynings
Poynings is about 4 miles north of Brighton and Hove, in West Sussex. We serve at events in gardens, halls and venues around Poynings. Poynings is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover.
Anyone leaving the car at home will want to know that the nearest station is Hassocks station, about 3.3 miles north-east. Older venues around Poynings may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before you book. An outdoor bar near the South Downs National Park, within about 5 miles of Poynings, needs firm ground and a way in, plus the right licensing, which we’ll check with you. With the sea within about 6 miles, a seaside drinks reception is an option. Seafront spots usually need permission, especially for alcohol, and the truck or trailer needs firm ground.
Here we cover the BN45 postcode area. From The Street and Cora's Walk or anywhere nearby, we will plan where to park and serve. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Fulking (1 mile south-west), Hangleton (3 miles south), Portslade (4 miles south), Castle Town (4 miles west) and Kingston by Sea (4 miles south).

Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Poynings
How far is Poynings from London?
Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London.
Could you serve our guests after a service at The Church of the Holy Trinity?
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. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you keep it mild?
It’s up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
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.
How much does the drinks bar cost?
There is no fixed price list, as each event is different. Tell us your plans for a quote.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, including West Sussex. Find your area.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
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.
Why choose Mexican bar hire in Poynings?
Non-drinkers often get only soft drinks. Our aguas frescas are made for them. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
