Mexican bar hire for Thorpe events
The process
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. By late September, sunset in Thorpe comes at roughly 7:05pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.
- First, we check your date.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
How to get a price
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.

Questions from Thorpe
Will you travel to a small place like Thorpe?
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.
How far is Thorpe from London?
It is about 20 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you bring staff to serve the drinks?
We bring bar staff, and serve throughout the agreed hours.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Is the food very hot?
That’s your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
What drinks do you serve?
Margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. The drinks list is agreed with you.
How it compares
DIY bars leave you handling licensing and staffing. We will talk licensing through with you and bring bar staff. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
