How we price Mexican bar hire

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Travel, parking and access
  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • The length of service
  • The number of people

There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Details that help

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Expected numbers
  • The date and rough timings
  • The address or venue name
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers

It is easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.

How it works

Here’s how the day usually runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. Winter receptions in Thorncross are dark by about 4:05pm in December, so plan where guests will gather, and how it will be lit. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:20pm.

  1. We check availability.
  2. We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
  3. We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
  4. We set up and serve on cue.
  5. We tidy up at the end.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Give us your final numbers and diets

Getting a price

Send us the date, your venue or PO30 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just use our quote form.

Thorncross questions

Do you cater in villages like Thorncross?

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.

Can you cater a reception after a service at St. Mary's Church?

Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.

Is the food suitable for children?

Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.

Do you provide plates and napkins?

Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?

That depends on your venue. Some venues have a premises licence; others need a Temporary Event Notice. We talk it through with you.

Do you do a taco bar?

We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.

What areas do you cover?

London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.

How long do you serve for?

That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.

Organising a club, school or community event in Thorncross? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.

Planning the serving area

We will be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. What matters most:

  • Somewhere to park and unload nearby
  • Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
  • Some distance from houses and neighbours

For somewhere as remote as Thorncross, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.

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