We serve in 683 places in Hampshire, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for Guildford, about 19 miles away.
A drinks bar at a garden or hall near a church like Rake Mission Church gives guests something to enjoy while photos are taken. An outdoor bar near the South Downs National Park, within about 5 miles of Rake, needs firm ground and a way in, plus the right licensing, which we’ll check with you.

Nearby, we also cater events in The Mint (1 mile north-west), Hill Brow (1 mile south-west), Liss (1 mile west), Liss Forest (1 mile north-west) and West Liss (2 miles west).

How our Mexican bar hire works in Rake
Aguas frescas are light, fruity drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re alcohol-free, so every guest can enjoy them. At birthday parties and mexican-themed parties, we can serve horchata, margaritas and agua de jamaica for your guests.
Near Rake, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, given access. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

What happens on the day
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. By late September, sunset in Rake comes at roughly 7:05pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.
- Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
- We talk licensing through with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.

Planners, venues and businesses
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
Before you choose a spot
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Vehicle access near the bar
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Popular choices
- Horchata
- Soft drinks
- Margaritas
- Mexican beer
- Fruit aguas frescas
- Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- How long we are needed on site
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you need disposables
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
