Before you choose a spot

Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:

  • Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
  • Room for a queue
  • Vehicle access near the bar

In East Village, 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 you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

On the menu in East Village

  • Mexican beer
  • Margaritas
  • Soft drinks
  • Horchata
  • Fruit aguas frescas
  • Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)

Tips for a smooth bar

A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:

  • Share taxi numbers with guests
  • Pair the bar with hot food
  • Find out if you need a Temporary Event Notice
  • Tell us how many guests are under 18

We can give allergen information for every drink, so guests can check before ordering.

What Mexican bar hire costs

We quote for your event, which reflects:

  • How many guests we’re serving
  • How long we are needed on site
  • The menu you choose
  • How many staff you need

The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

What we need to know

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Your date and when you want service to start
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • Where the event is
  • Your menu ideas

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. Contact us for a quote: just send us your details through our quote form.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Popular choices

A light drink for hot days.

FAQs for East Village

Is parking a problem for events in East Village?

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.

Which station should guests use for East Village?

Stratford International station, in East Village itself.

What happens if it rains?

The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.

What do you need at the venue?

The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.

Can you cater for children?

Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.

How spicy is the food?

The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.

When do you arrive?

We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.

What happens on the day

On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. Winter receptions in East Village are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:20pm.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
  2. Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
  3. We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
  4. We arrive, set up and serve margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
  5. When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.

How to prepare

  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
  • Find out what power and water are available
  • Share the running order, including any speeches

How to get a price

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.
