A Mexican drinks bar in Selmeston: local tips
Selmeston is about 5 miles north of Seaford, in East Sussex. Wherever your event is in the BN26 area, we can serve your guests, as long as there is access. Selmeston is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we can bring Mexican bar hire. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Selmeston to Brighton (about 12 miles away).
For guests coming by train, the nearest station is Berwick (Sussex) station, about 1 mile east. If the service is at a church such as The Parish Church of St Mary, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. An outdoor bar near the South Downs National Park, within about 3 miles of Selmeston, needs firm ground and a way in, plus the right licensing, which we’ll check with you. The coast is within about 6 miles, close enough for drinks by the sea. Seafront spots generally need permission, especially for alcohol, and the truck or trailer needs firm ground.
For Mexican bar hire in BN26, we plan around your venue and the route in and timings. Streets in the area include The Street and Lewes Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Close by, we cover events in Alciston (1 mile south), Berwick (1 mile east), Ripe (2 miles north), Winton (2 miles south) and Wickstreet (2 miles north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Eastbourne (7 miles south-east), Bexhill-on-Sea (14 miles east), Seaford (5 miles south), Lewes (6 miles west), Hailsham (5 miles east) and Crowborough (14 miles north).
Other landmarks nearby include Drusillas Museum (1.8 miles south-east) and Chailey Heritage Marine Hospital (5.3 miles south-west). Green spaces nearby include Firle Beacon.

Selmeston: your questions answered
Will you travel to a small place like Selmeston?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?
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.
Do you provide bar staff?
We bring bar staff.
Do you come to Selmeston?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Selmeston and across East Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
How many guests can you serve?
Our truck and trailer service usually suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?
Always. Under-18s are not served alcohol, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
How it works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. In December, the light goes in Selmeston at about 3:55pm, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:15pm.
