Mexican bar hire for Rownhams events
About our Mexican bar hire in Rownhams
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. It works well for client events and launches and end-of-year parties, serving alcohol-free drinks, Mexican beer and soft drinks.
For a party in a place like Rownhams, a drinks bar is easy and sociable. Tell us about the drive, gates and power. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Organising for someone else?
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Organising a club, school or community event in Rownhams? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
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 be with your guests, we will do the serving.
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. In December, the light goes in Rownhams at about 4:00pm, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:25pm.
- We check availability.
- 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.
- We tidy up at the end.
How to prepare
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

What else we do in Rownhams
Questions from Rownhams
Could you come to a seaside event near Rownhams?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St John: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
What’s on the drinks menu?
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, plus soft drinks. We plan the list with you.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Every bar has alcohol-free choices, including aguas frescas and soft drinks.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, Southampton included. Find your area.

Nearby historic houses include South Stoneham House (3.5 miles east) and Southampton Tudor House and Garden (4 miles south-east). Before booking a historic venue, find out whether it lets an outside bar bring a vehicle on site. If you have your heart set on St James' Park, ask the people who run it about vehicles, alcohol and licensing first. Rownhams is within about 8 miles of the New Forest National Park, a lovely setting for drinks outdoors. Ask your venue about vehicle access for the truck or trailer. The coast is within about 5 miles, close enough for drinks by the sea. Seafront spots usually need permission, especially for alcohol, and the truck or trailer needs firm ground.
