Mexican bar hire in Shortfield Common, served fresh
Responsible serving matters to us: no alcohol for under-18s, and plenty of alcohol-free choices. It works well for staff parties and winter celebrations, serving soft drinks, Mexican beer and agua de jamaica.
In a rural spot like Shortfield Common, 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 prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
How we price Mexican bar hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Guest numbers
- Food, drinks or both
- Travel, parking and access
- What’s on the menu
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Roughly how many adults and children
To get a price, just send a quick message through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
What’s on the menu
Horchata
A comforting alcohol-free drink.
Agua de jamaica
A deep red hibiscus drink, served chilled.
Drinks planning tips
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Tell us how many guests are under 18
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Make sure drivers have good choices
- Add food if the bar runs for a while
We can give allergen information for every drink, so guests can check before ordering.
Add our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos.
DIY taco night or 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.
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.
What we need at the venue
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Vehicle access near the bar
- The venue’s permission for an outside bar
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

Shortfield Common is one of 395 places in Surrey where we can bring Mexican bar hire. You can also see our page for Guildford, about 11 miles away.
A drinks bar at a garden or hall near a church like Church of St Mary the Virgin gives guests something to enjoy while photos are taken. Parks such as Underdown nature reserve have their own rules on vehicles and alcohol, so check before planning a drinks bar there. An outdoor bar near the Surrey Hills National Landscape, within about 6 miles of Shortfield Common, needs firm ground and a way in, plus the right licensing, which we’ll check with you.

Comparing your options
A generic bar does the job, but a Mexican bar with margaritas and aguas frescas feels like part of the theme. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

FAQs for Shortfield Common
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary the Virgin: can you cater afterwards?
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. Send us the reception address.
What’s the nearest station to Shortfield Common for guests?
Guests can use Farnham station, about 2.5 miles north of Shortfield Common.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, Surrey included. See all areas.
Will someone run the bar?
Our bar staff run the bar. They serve responsibly.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. Evening drinks in Shortfield Common stay light until about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We go through the licensing with you.
- You choose the drinks with us.
- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
- We clear the bar at the end.
