Step by step

Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. Evening drinks in Standlake stay light until about 9:00pm in late May and 9:30pm in late June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.

  1. It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
  2. We talk through licensing with you, whether that’s the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
  3. You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
  4. On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
  5. When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.

How to prepare

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
  • Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

  • Permission from the venue or landowner

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Common bookings include:

  • Big birthday celebrations

  • Winter celebrations

If the service is at a church such as St Giles' Church, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.

  • Space, access, power and water needs
  • A food hygiene rating you can check
  • Whether plates, napkins and cutlery are included

Choosing a Mexican caterer

Questions from Standlake

Can you cater a reception after a service at St Giles' Church?

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 will check the access.

Will you travel to a small place like Standlake?

Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.

Do you provide plates and napkins?

We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we’ll talk it through.

Do you have options for kids?

Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.

What access do you need?

Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.

Do you do margaritas?

Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.

What’s on the menu

Margaritas

Tequila, lime and orange liqueur over ice.

Agua de jamaica

Agua de jamaica is bright and refreshing.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
  • Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
