Mexican bar hire for your event in Covent Garden
A Mexican drinks bar brings margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas to your event, served by our bar staff. You can book it alone or with our Mexican catering. For company summer parties and themed celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of alcohol-free drinks, horchata and aguas frescas for your guests.
Around Covent Garden, a courtyard or forecourt the truck or trailer can reach is ideal. Tell us about narrow streets, permit bays or a parking suspension. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

Planning a drinks bar in Covent Garden
Covent Garden is about 1 mile east of City of Westminster, in Greater London. Tell us where your event in Covent Garden will be, and we will plan access and set-up before the day. We cover 764 places across Greater London, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Once the ceremony at a church like Crown Court Church is over, guests may be glad of a cold drink at the reception venue. If you have your heart set on Victoria Embankment Gardens, ask the people who run it about vehicles, alcohol and licensing first.
Wherever your event is in W1F, W1D and W1T, we can bring Mexican bar hire to you. We can cater an event on streets such as Duck Lane, Drury Lane and New Square or the roads around them. Covent Garden is on the A301 and A400, so it is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. For events just outside Covent Garden, we cover Seven Dials (1 mile west), Aldwych (1 mile east), Adelphi (1 mile south), St Giles (1 mile north-west) and Clare Market (1 mile north-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Kensington (4 miles west), Walthamstow (7 miles north-east), Hampstead (4 miles north-west), Ruislip (13 miles west), Stockwell (3 miles south) and Orpington (13 miles south-east).
Other landmarks nearby include London Museum and Institute of Natural History (under half a mile east) and Montfichet's Tower (0.9 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Ludgate Hill and Barnsbury Wood.
- Nearby schools include London Nautical School (0.7 miles south-east) and Mercers' School (0.7 miles north-east)
- Pubs nearby include Punch & Judy pub (less than half a mile south-west)
- Local facilities include Liberty of the Savoy (under half a mile south-east) and LSE Shaw Library (under half a mile north-east)
DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Winter receptions in Covent Garden are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so plan where guests will gather, and how it will be lit. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:20pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We go through the licensing with you.
- We agree a drinks menu.
- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
- We clear the bar at the end.
How to prepare
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Covent Garden questions
Which station is closest to Covent Garden?
Guests can use London Charing Cross station, which is right in Covent Garden.
What about parking in Covent Garden?
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.
What drinks do you serve?
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, plus soft drinks. We plan the list with you.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
That depends on your venue. If the venue has no licence, a Temporary Event Notice may be needed. We talk it through with you.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
Comparing your options
Some bars offer little for non-drinkers. Our aguas frescas are made for them. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.
