How it compares
A standard bar is fine, but a Mexican bar with margaritas and aguas frescas feels like part of the theme. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t usually stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. A summer drinks reception in Sholden Meadows has daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:00pm, and in December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting around the bar.

Sholden Meadows: your questions answered
Is it possible to have you in Betteshanger Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Could you come to a seaside event near Sholden Meadows?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
How many guests can you serve?
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.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will suggest mild options.

Planning the serving area
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:

- The right licence for alcohol: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice
- Somewhere to park and unload nearby
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

- Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)
- Fruit aguas frescas
- Soft drinks
- Mexican beer
- Margaritas
- Horchata
Should I do it myself?
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.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
