Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Small Dole

Could you come to a seaside event near Small Dole?

We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.

Which station should guests use for Small Dole?

Guests can use Shoreham-By-Sea station, about 4.8 miles south of Small Dole.

Do you cook on site?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

What can we have at the bar?

Margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. The drinks list is agreed with you.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.

How soon do we need to book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.

Are plates and napkins included?

We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.

What food and drinks do you offer?

Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.

Planning drinks for every guest

To get the most from the bar, it helps to:

  • Find out if you need a Temporary Event Notice
  • Allow time for a Temporary Event Notice if one is needed
  • Have plenty of water available
  • Share bar opening times

When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.

Tell us what glassware you need and we will set out the options.

Popular choices

Tamarind and fruit waters

Fruit waters and tamarind, light and refreshing.

The process

A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. At midsummer, it’s light in Small Dole until about 9:20pm, ideal for drinks outdoors. In late September it is dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.

  1. First, we check your date.
  2. We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
  3. We agree where the bar goes.
  4. We set up and serve on cue.
  5. We tidy up at the end.

Preparing for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
  • Measure any gates or arches on the way in
  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

Planning help

Should I do it myself?

Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

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.
