Choosing a Mexican caterer

Mexican bar hire in Barnet, served fresh

The drinks menu is agreed with you, to suit your guests and timings. Share your ideas and we will suggest a menu. Popular choices include margaritas, horchata and soft drinks, and it is a good fit for staff parties and engagement celebrations.

Around Barnet, a courtyard or forecourt the truck or trailer can reach is ideal. Let us know about parking, permits and any parking suspension. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. Evening drinks in Barnet stay light until about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. String lights or lanterns near the hatch make a later bar easier to find.

  1. Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
  2. We go through the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
  3. We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
  4. On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
  5. After service, we clear the bar away.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
  • Tell us what power and water the site has

Planning a drinks bar in Barnet

Barnet is in Greater London. Events in Barnet are planned around your venue and timings: a clear quote, agreed timings and fresh service on the day. We cater in 764 places across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Barnet to London (11 miles away).

If you have your heart set on Highlands Gardens, ask the people who run it about vehicles, alcohol and licensing first. If the service is at a church such as St John's United Reformed Church, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.

Wherever your event is in EN5, EN4, N20 and N11, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. Streets in the area include Station Road, High Street and Sambroke Square, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. You’ll find Barnet on the B193 and A1081, which makes it straightforward to bring the truck or trailer.

For event organisers in Barnet

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Barnet? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.

For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

Before you choose a spot

Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • Licensing checked with you before the day
  • Some distance from houses and neighbours
  • Space for guests to queue at the bar

Barnet is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Popular choices

  • Horchata
  • Fruit aguas frescas
  • Margaritas
  • Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)

DIY taco night versus a caterer

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

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, and handles allergen information for you.
