Blackwall: your questions answered
Is it possible to have you in Bow Creek Ecology Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
What about parking in Blackwall?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
Can you run a bar?
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’ll check the licensing with you.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Who handles the licensing?
You’ll need either the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We check the licensing with you before the day. See GOV.UK for Temporary Event Notices.
Mexican bar hire for your event in Blackwall
There are always alcohol-free drinks on the bar, so drivers and non-drinkers aren’t left with tap water. For end-of-year and Christmas parties and company summer parties, we can serve agua de jamaica, aguas frescas and margaritas.
For a drinks reception in Blackwall, a courtyard, forecourt or venue with vehicle access suits the truck or trailer. Let us know about parking, permits and any parking suspension. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.
