About our Mexican bar hire in St John's
Soft drinks and alcohol-free choices are always part of the bar, for drivers, children and anyone not drinking. It works well for taco nights and themed parties and summer garden parties, serving agua de jamaica, aguas frescas and horchata.
In St John's, a drinks bar works at home or in a local hall, with access for the truck or trailer. Alcohol-free drinks such as aguas frescas can be part of the menu. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
Wine and fizz are the usual choices. Margaritas and Mexican beer feel more relaxed. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.

Questions from St John's
Could you serve our guests after a service at St John's Church?
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’ll check the access.
Is St John's close to London?
It’s about 25 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
You’ll need either the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We check the licensing with you before the day. GOV.UK explains Temporary Event Notices.
Can children have drinks from the bar?
Yes. Aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata are alcohol-free.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Surrey. See all areas.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Planning the bar
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Let us know how many non-drinkers to expect
- Tell us when the bar should open and close
- Find out if you need a Temporary Event Notice
- Plan transport home for guests
We adapt if the timings shift.

A Mexican drinks bar in St John's: local tips

Parks such as Brookwood Lye have their own rules on vehicles and alcohol, so check before planning a drinks bar there. Older venues around St John's may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before booking.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll be honest if a space will not work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- The right licence for alcohol: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Step by step
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. Winter receptions in St John's are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:20pm.
- We check availability.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Name one person we can ask on the day
