About our Mexican bar hire in Smeeth
Our bar travels to events across Smeeth and nearby: from weddings and parties to work events. On the menu are agua de jamaica, aguas frescas and margaritas, and it is a good fit for mexican-themed parties and licensed festivals.
In a rural spot like Smeeth, drinks can be served from our food truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, given access. We’ll check the licensing with you. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.
For event organisers in Smeeth
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.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Why choose Mexican bar hire in Smeeth?
A self-service drinks table is simple but can run dry or go warm. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
Why book with us
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Menus chosen with you
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Access, space and power checked in advance

A Mexican drinks bar in Smeeth: local tips
Smeeth is about 5 miles east of Ashford, in Kent. For Mexican bar hire in Smeeth, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We cater in all 922 towns and villages in Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for Canterbury, about 12 miles away.
Historic buildings near Smeeth often have strict rules for outside caterers, so ask early if that is your venue. If the service is at a church such as Church of St Mary, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. With the Kent Downs National Landscape within about 5 miles, a countryside drinks reception is an option. Check how the venue handles outside bars and vehicles.

We also serve at events in Ridgeway (1 mile west), Brabourne Lees (1 mile north-east), Lilyvale (1 mile south-east), Bircholt Forstal (1 mile north-east) and Stone Hill (1 mile south-east).

Step by step
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. By late September, sunset in Smeeth comes at roughly 7:00pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:45pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- We arrive, set up and serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
Before we arrive
