Mexican bar hire in Thorley, served fresh
Aguas frescas are light, fruity drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re alcohol-free, so every guest can enjoy them. We serve horchata, aguas frescas and Mexican beer, and it suits winter celebrations and fairs and community events.
In a rural spot like Thorley, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, given access. We will talk licensing through with you. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

How it works
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. By late September, sunset in Thorley comes at roughly 7:10pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We talk through licensing with you.

- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.

FAQs for Thorley
Do you cater in villages like Thorley?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you serve near the sea around Thorley?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Every bar has alcohol-free choices, from aguas frescas to soft drinks.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Do you serve responsibly?
Our bar staff serve responsibly: under-18s get alcohol-free drinks only, and we offer water and alcohol-free choices throughout.
