About our Mexican bar hire in Snowdown
We set up the bar at events in and around Snowdown: from weddings and parties to work events. For anniversaries and engagements and big birthday celebrations, we can serve soft drinks, Mexican beer and horchata for your guests.
In a rural spot like Snowdown, drinks can be served from our food 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 truck or trailer.
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

FAQs for Snowdown
Is Snowdown close to London?
It is about 60 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Peter?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Are plates and napkins included?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Can children have drinks from the bar?
Every bar has alcohol-free choices, from aguas frescas to soft drinks.
What Mexican bar hire costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Whether you need disposables
- Travel, parking and access
- Guest numbers
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- A picture of where we’d park
- The date and time of the event
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, use our quote form.
What happens on the day
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. Evening drinks in Snowdown stay light until about 8:45pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. String lights or lanterns near the hatch make a later bar easier to find.
