Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Donnybrook Quarter
What about parking in Donnybrook Quarter?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Paul Old Ford?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service usually suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What Mexican bar hire costs
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The menu you choose

- How many staff you need
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- What you’d like on the menu
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- What power and water the site has
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.

Step by step
Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Evening drinks in Donnybrook Quarter stay light until about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.

- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
