Why choose Mexican bar hire in Charing Cross?
Bar staff serve, so your hosts don’t have to, and you can enjoy the event.
A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Typical bookings include:
- Engagement and anniversary parties
- Client events and launches
- Birthday parties
- Mexican-themed parties
If the service is at a church such as St Martin-in-the-Fields, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.

Around Charing Cross, a courtyard or forecourt the truck or trailer can reach is ideal. Tell us about narrow streets, permit bays or a parking suspension. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

Charing Cross: your questions answered
Is parking a problem for events in Charing Cross?
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.
Which station is closest to Charing Cross?
London Charing Cross station, in Charing Cross itself.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
