Where the truck can go in Beckton
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- The right licence for alcohol: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice
- Details of power and water on site
- Vehicle access near the bar
In Beckton, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Menu ideas
- Soft drinks
- Mexican beer
- Margaritas

- Horchata

The process
When service finishes, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. A summer drinks reception in Beckton has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. In late September it’s dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:50pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- We tidy up at the end.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Let us know how many non-drinkers to expect
- Tell us when the bar should open and close
- Give the council notice in good time for a Temporary Event Notice

Beckton questions
We’re having a ceremony at St Michael and All Angels Church: 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.
What about parking in Beckton?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can we have the bar on its own?
Yes. Book the bar on its own.
Do you provide bar staff?
Bar staff are part of the service.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
