How our Mexican bar hire works in Barnes Street
Soft drinks and alcohol-free choices are always part of the bar, for drivers, children and anyone not drinking. Popular choices include Mexican beer, soft drinks and agua de jamaica, which works well for product launches and client events and wedding receptions and evening parties.
Near Barnes Street, a drinks bar suits gardens, barns and marquees, as long as we can get in. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
The process
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. By late September, sunset in Barnes Street comes at roughly 7:00pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:50pm.
- First, we check your date.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches

Planning help
Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
DIY drinks tables are easy but need constant topping up. Bar staff keep drinks flowing and cold. 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.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Tips for a smooth bar
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
- Allow time for a Temporary Event Notice if one is needed
- Ensure drivers have good choices
- Ask your venue about its licence early
When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Add our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos.

Barnes Street: your questions answered
How far is Barnes Street from London?
It’s about 28 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Golden Green Mission Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?
Our bar staff serve responsibly: under-18s get alcohol-free drinks only, and we offer water and alcohol-free choices throughout.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Space for guests to queue at the bar
- The venue’s permission for an outside bar
- Details of power and water on site
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
