Mexican bar hire for your event in Rudgwick

Aguas frescas are Mexico’s fresh fruit and flower drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re a good alcohol-free choice for everyone. We serve agua de jamaica, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks, and it suits winter celebrations and summer garden parties.

In a rural spot like Rudgwick, 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’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Questions from Rudgwick

Do you cater in villages like Rudgwick?

Is Rudgwick close to London?

About 32 miles from central London.

What do you need at the venue?

Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.

Do you do drinks only?

Yes, though it pairs well with tacos. Ask about adding tacos and burritos.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.

What can we have at the bar?

Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, plus soft drinks. We plan the list with you.

How much does the drinks bar cost?

We quote for each event, depending on guests, drinks and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.

In Rudgwick and nearby, we can cater all sorts of events. Popular bookings include:

Questions to ask before you book

Should I do it myself?

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Prices and what affects them

Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
  • What’s on the menu
  • How many guests we’re serving
  • The length of service

Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.

What to tell us

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • The address or venue name
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
  • Your date and when you want service to start

To get a price, just send us your details through our quote form. Tell us about your event in Rudgwick, and we’ll suggest a menu to suit.

What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we will adjust where we can. A late-September party in Rudgwick loses the light at about 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.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We talk licensing through with you.
  3. We agree a drinks menu.
  4. Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
  5. We clear the bar at the end.

Preparing for the day

  • Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
  • Find out what power and water are available
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

Getting a price

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.

Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?

Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A staffed bar means everyone is served, including non-drinkers. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Why us?

  • Quick, friendly service from the hatch
  • Menus chosen with you
  • We cover Rudgwick and the whole of West Sussex
  • Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar

See our prices page or the cost guide.

Tips for a smooth bar

A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:

  • Have plenty of water available
  • Allow time for a Temporary Event Notice if one is needed
  • Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
  • Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers

Responsible serving comes first: under-18s are not served alcohol, and nor is anyone who has had too much.

Margaritas for the drinks reception, licensing permitting.
