Who books Mexican bar hire in Somerton?

It suits summer evenings especially well.

Whatever the occasion, the serving truck can be a highlight. We can cater:

  • Milestone birthdays
  • Launch parties
  • Winter celebrations
  • Summer garden parties

Once the ceremony at a church like Church of St James is over, guests may be glad of a cold drink at the reception venue.

  • Staff numbers and hours

Choosing a Mexican caterer

What affects the price in Somerton

Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Distance and access to the venue
  • What the venue already provides
  • What’s on the menu
  • How many guests we are serving

Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

What to tell us

To speed things up, tell us:

  • The venue or postcode
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • Expected numbers
  • A picture of where we’d park

Send us the date, your venue or OX25 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, tell us about it on our contact page.

The menu, item by item

Tamarind and fruit waters

Tamarind water and seasonal fruit waters, light and refreshing.

Horchata

Horchata is popular with all ages; ask us about allergens.

Can I do a taco night myself?

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Somerton

Which station is closest to Somerton?

Guests can use Heyford station, about 2.7 miles south of Somerton.

We’re having a ceremony at Church of St James: can you cater afterwards?

Yes. The church itself is not 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’ll check the access.

Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?

Responsible serving comes first: under-18s get alcohol-free drinks only, and we offer water and alcohol-free choices throughout.

Do you cater in Somerton?

Yes, we do. We serve at events in Somerton and across Oxfordshire. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Can you serve in the rain?

Rain doesn’t typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

Do you provide plates and napkins?

Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.

Can guests build their own tacos?

Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.

What happens on the day

Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. In December, the light goes in Somerton at about 3:55pm, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:30pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. We talk through licensing with you.
  3. We agree a drinks menu.
  4. Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
  5. We clear the bar at the end.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
  • Tell us what power and water the site has

How it compares

Leaving guests to bring their own is easy but unpredictable. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
