Mexican bar hire near West Clandon
Mexican bar hire in West Clandon, from our food truck or trailer
Mexican beer is served cold, with a wedge of lime if guests like. It works well for engagement celebrations and fairs and community events, serving soft drinks, margaritas and agua de jamaica.
Near West Clandon, a drinks bar suits a garden, barn or field party. Tell us about the ground, gates, power and water. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is 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.
