Common questions in Upper Brailes
Do you come out to small places like Upper Brailes?
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.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St George?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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.
Can we have the bar on its own?
Of course. Ask about adding tacos and burritos.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. Find your area.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Always. Aguas frescas and soft drinks are alcohol-free.
Drinks planning tips
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Share bar opening times
- Collect allergy details in advance
- Give the council notice in good time for a Temporary Event Notice
- Check how alcohol will be licensed at your venue
There are always alcohol-free options.
Add our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Events we cater in Upper Brailes
Bar staff serve, so your hosts do not have to, and you can enjoy the event.
A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Common bookings include:
- Milestone birthdays
