Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Barnes Cray
Could you serve in Braeburn Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
How far is Barnes Cray from London?
About 13 miles from central London.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What drinks do you serve?
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, plus soft drinks. The drinks list is agreed with you.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Do you serve responsibly?
Always. No alcohol is served to under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.

Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.

Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. In Barnes Cray, you could book us for occasions like:
- Engagement and anniversary parties
- Milestone birthdays
- End-of-year parties

If the service is at a church such as Christ Church, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
The menu, item by item
Margaritas
A classic margarita, served cold, with or without a salted rim.
Mexican beer
Cold beer and tacos go together.
Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
Non-drinkers often get only soft drinks. Aguas frescas give them something special. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
