About our Mexican bar hire in Ruscote
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We’ll check the licensing with you. It suits end-of-year parties and themed celebrations, with soft drinks, agua de jamaica and alcohol-free drinks.
Around Ruscote, a drinks bar suits garden parties and village-hall celebrations, with access for the truck or trailer. Alcohol-free drinks such as aguas frescas can be part of the menu. Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Questions from Ruscote
Can you bring your truck or trailer to People's Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
What’s the nearest station to Ruscote for guests?
The closest is Banbury station, roughly 1.5 miles away.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. Find your area.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
What does a Mexican bar cost?
We quote for each event, based on numbers, drinks and hours. For a price, use our quote form.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
Ruscote: venues, access and licensing
Ruscote is about 1 mile west of Banbury, in Oxfordshire. Give us the address of your event in Ruscote, and we will plan access and set-up. We serve in all 443 towns and villages across Oxfordshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Oxford, about 22 miles away.
Historic buildings near Ruscote often have strict rules for outside caterers, so ask early if that’s your venue. If the service is at a church such as St Paul's Church Centre, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.
We cater events across OX16 and OX15. Local streets include Abbey Road, Lunnun Road and Bailey Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

Comparing your options
A standard bar is fine, but margaritas and aguas frescas give the bar character. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
How it works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. Winter receptions in Ruscote are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so plan where guests will gather, and how it will be lit. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:30pm.
- Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
- We check the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Tell us what power and water the site has

To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Find out if you need a Temporary Event Notice
- Plan water alongside the bar

We serve responsibly: no alcohol for under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
Pair the bar with tacos, burritos and nachos.
