Drinks planning tips
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Serve food alongside the drinks
- Share bar opening times
- Plan any Temporary Event Notice well ahead
- Make sure drivers have good choices
Responsible serving comes first: no alcohol for under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
A welcome margarita as guests arrive, licensing permitting.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Level, firm ground for the bar set-up
- Vehicle access near the bar
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
In Bow Common, 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’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
On the menu in Bow Common
- Margaritas
- Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)
- Soft drinks
- Fruit aguas frescas
- Horchata
