Mexican bar hire for St Michaels events
About our Mexican bar hire in St Michaels
A Mexican drinks bar brings margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas to your event, served by our bar staff. It works on its own or alongside our food. Popular choices include soft drinks, aguas frescas and horchata, and it suits fairs and community events and themed celebrations.
In a rural spot like St Michaels, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, as long as we can get in. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
Running your own bar means checking licensing, stock and staff yourself. We will talk licensing through with you and bring bar staff. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
St Michaels questions
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Will you travel to a small place like St Michaels?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What does a Mexican bar cost?
We do not publish set prices, as each event is different. Tell us your plans for a quote.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
What affects the price in St Michaels
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Travel, parking and access
- How many staff you need
- The length of service
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Planning the serving area

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
