DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
What Mexican bar hire costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Parking and the route in
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Timings and hours
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What happens on the day
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. By late September, sunset in Sandleford comes at roughly 7:10pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- We talk licensing through 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, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
