A Mexican drinks bar in West Thorney: local tips
West Thorney is about 5 miles south-east of Havant, in West Sussex. Whether your event is in the middle of West Thorney or on the outskirts, Mexican bar hire works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We serve in 371 places in West Sussex, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our nearest city page is Chichester, about 6 miles away.
A drinks bar at a garden or hall near a church like The Parish Church of St Nicholas gives guests something to enjoy while photos are taken. Older venues around West Thorney may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before booking. The coast is within about 4 miles, close enough for drinks by the sea. Seafront spots normally need permission, especially for alcohol, and the truck or trailer needs firm ground.
Anywhere in PO10, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Close by, we cover events in Thorney Island (1 mile north-west), Tye (2 miles west), Southbourne (2 miles north), North Hayling (2 miles west) and Northney (2 miles west). Within a short drive, we also cover Bognor Regis (10 miles east), Chichester (6 miles east), Selsey (8 miles south-east), Emsworth (3 miles north-west), Portfield (7 miles east) and Yapton (13 miles east).
A little further out are Emsworth Museum (2.5 miles north-west) and Warblington Castle (3.1 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Nutborne Marshes.
- Schools near West Thorney include Bourne Community College (2.4 miles north)
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Planning drinks for every guest
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Make sure drivers have good choices
- Agree bar timings in advance
- Share taxi numbers with guests
- Add food if the bar runs for a while
Bar staff serve for the agreed times.
More bar staff for larger crowds, quoted for your event.
Popular choices
Soft drinks
A choice of soft drinks for drivers and children.
Margaritas
Tequila, lime and orange liqueur over ice.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- The length of service
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- The menu you choose
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- How we drive in and where we can park
- The date and time of the event
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Roughly how many adults and children
Send us the date, your venue or PO10 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get menu ideas and a price. To get started, send a quick message through our quote form.

What else we do in West Thorney
West Thorney: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to West Thorney for guests?
The closest is Southbourne station, roughly 2.2 miles away.
Is it possible to have you in Eames Farm?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you cover West Thorney?
We do. West Thorney is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
That depends on your venue. Some venues have a premises licence; others need a Temporary Event Notice. We will check the licensing with you.
How the day works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. By late September, sunset in West Thorney comes at roughly 7:05pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
