Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Clapton
Is it possible to have you in Millfields Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Which station is closest to Clapton?
Clapton has its own station: Clapton station.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
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. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
The process
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. A summer drinks reception in Clapton has daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We talk through licensing with you.
- You choose the drinks with us.
- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
- We pack down when the bar closes.
Preparing for the day

Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
What we need at the venue
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Vehicle access near the bar
- Level, firm ground for the bar set-up
- A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late
In Clapton, 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.
