Sunset in St Mary's Bay is around 9:15pm in 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.

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in St Mary's Bay
Could you serve in Romney Warren Country Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
We’re having a ceremony at All Saints: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
What does Mexican bar hire cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll recommend how to serve.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will check the licensing with you.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
