Mexican bar hire in Arlington
Questions from Arlington
We are having a ceremony at The Parish Church of St Pancras: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Will you travel to a small place like Arlington?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Do you provide bar staff?
We bring bar staff, and serve throughout the agreed hours.
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 give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Where do you cater?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Arlington.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Mexican bar hire in Arlington, served fresh
Soft drinks and alcohol-free choices are always part of the bar, so drivers and non-drinkers are not left with tap water. At fairs and community events and end-of-year and Christmas parties, we’ll put together a menu of margaritas, alcohol-free drinks and aguas frescas for your guests.
For a country party near Arlington, a drinks bar in a garden or field sets the mood. Tell us about the ground, gates, power and water. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
