Mexican bar hire in Watermill, from our food truck or trailer
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: either the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We will check the licensing with you. For themed celebrations and birthday parties, we will put together a menu of margaritas, agua de jamaica and alcohol-free drinks for your guests.
For a country party near Watermill, a drinks bar in a garden or field sets the mood. Tell us about the ground, gates, power and water. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

How it works
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. Sunset in Watermill is around 9:15pm in June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. String lights or lanterns near the hatch make a later bar easier to find.
- First, we check your date.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- We tidy up at the end.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
