Mexican bar hire near Puttenham

Mexican bar hire in Puttenham, served fresh

Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We’ll go through the licensing with you. For launch parties and anniversaries and engagements, we’ll put together a menu of aguas frescas, horchata and Mexican beer and more.

For a country party near Puttenham, a drinks bar in a garden or field sets the mood. Tell us about the ground, gates, power and water. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground

How the day works

A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. Sunset in Puttenham is around 9:20pm in June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.

You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
We go through the licensing with you: 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.
When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.

Getting ready for the day

Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Common questions in Puttenham

How far is Puttenham from central London?

It’s about 32 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Could you serve in Pucks Oak Barn and McAlmont Reserves?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.

Is there something for non-drinkers?

Always. Aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata are alcohol-free, along with soft drinks.

Can guests build their own tacos?

We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.

What happens if it rains?

The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.

What do you serve?

Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.

Is the food made fresh?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

Our truck and trailer service typically suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
