About our Mexican bar hire in Finsbury
Margaritas are the centrepiece: tequila, lime and orange liqueur over ice, with or without a salted rim. It works well for product launches and client events and engagement and anniversary parties, with alcohol-free drinks, horchata and agua de jamaica.
For a drinks reception in Finsbury, a courtyard, forecourt or venue with vehicle access suits the truck or trailer. Let us know about parking, permits and any parking suspension.

How the day works
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we have agreed, planned around your event. By late September, sunset in Finsbury comes at roughly 7:05pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
Getting a price
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. Contact us for a quote: just tell us about it on our contact page.

Where the truck can go in Finsbury
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Space for guests to queue at the bar
- Details of power and water on site
- A flat, firm spot for the bar
As a London location, Finsbury is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Finsbury
Is it possible to have you in Artillery Ground?
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.
Which station should guests use for Finsbury?
Old Street station, in Finsbury itself.
What’s on the drinks menu?
Margaritas and Mexican beer, with aguas frescas like horchata and agua de jamaica.
Will someone run the bar?
Bar staff are part of the service, and serve throughout the agreed hours.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will suggest the best set-up.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
