How our Mexican bar hire works in Canary Wharf
Serving alcohol at events needs a licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We go through the licensing with you before the day. It suits staff parties and end-of-year parties, with Mexican beer, margaritas and horchata.
For a drinks reception in Canary Wharf, a courtyard, forecourt or venue with vehicle access suits the truck or trailer. Tell us about narrow streets, permit bays or a parking suspension. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Planning the bar
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:

- Collect allergy details in advance
After service, we clear the bar away.

Step by step
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. A summer drinks reception in Canary Wharf has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- We check availability.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Preparing for the day

Canary Wharf: venues, access and licensing
Canary Wharf is about 2 miles north-west of Greenwich, in Greater London. For an event in Canary Wharf, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access. Canary Wharf is one of 764 places in Greater London where we can bring Mexican bar hire.
Couples leaving a church such as St Peter's Church could be greeted with margaritas and aguas frescas at the reception. If you are looking at a historic venue around Canary Wharf, check its rules on outside bars and vehicles early.
Anywhere in E14, SE16 and E22, we can bring Mexican bar hire to you. Whether your event is on Castor Lane, Cassilis Road and Dockyard Lane or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican bar hire there, given access. With the A1261 close by, Canary Wharf is easy for us to reach. If your venue is just outside Canary Wharf, we also cover London Docklands (1 mile east), Poplar (1 mile north-east), Heron Quays (1 mile south-west), Coldharbour (1 mile east) and Blackwall (1 mile east). Larger places within reach include London (3 miles west), City of Westminster (6 miles west), Marylebone (6 miles west), Kensington (8 miles west), St Pancras (4 miles west) and Shoreditch (3 miles north-west).
A little further out are Poplar Hospital (0.7 miles north-east) and Greenwich Castle (2 miles south). Not far away are St. James's Park Lake and Tower Hill.

What we need at the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- A flat, firm spot for the bar
- Room for a queue
In Canary Wharf, 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.

How we price Mexican bar hire
These are the factors that matter most:
- How many staff you need
- How long we’re needed on site
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
