FAQs for Crossness
Is it possible to have you in Lesnes Abbey Woods?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
What’s the nearest station to Crossness for guests?
The closest is Abbey Wood station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
How much is a food truck for an event?
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Is the food very hot?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
It depends on the venue. Some venues have a premises licence; others need a Temporary Event Notice. We talk it through with you.
What can we have at the bar?
Margaritas and Mexican beer, with aguas frescas like horchata and agua de jamaica.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.

How our Mexican bar hire works in Crossness
Responsible serving matters to us: no alcohol for under-18s, and plenty of alcohol-free choices. We serve aguas frescas, horchata and margaritas, and it suits engagement celebrations and milestone birthdays.
In Crossness, a drinks bar suits courtyard receptions, office parties and evening events. As with any London event, parking and loading need planning.

What affects the price in Crossness
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How many guests we’re serving
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- How many staff you need
- The length of service
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The address or venue name
- Expected numbers
- Your menu ideas
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
Planning the bar
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Agree bar timings in advance
- Add food if the bar runs for a while
- Tell us how many guests are under 18
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
We arrive in good time to set up the bar.
Soft drinks for drivers.
The process
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. At midsummer, it is light in Crossness until about 9:20pm, ideal for drinks outdoors. In late September it’s dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:50pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- First, we check your date.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- We tidy up at the end.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
Getting a price
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.
