FAQs for Green Park
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Paul's Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
How far is Green Park from London?
About 39 miles from central London, and well within our area.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
What does a Mexican bar cost?
We quote for each event, depending on guests, drinks and timings. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Do you do drinks only?
Yes, though it pairs well with tacos. Ask about adding tacos and burritos.
What can we have at the bar?
Our bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata, plus alcohol-free choices.
Mexican bar hire in Green Park, served fresh
Alcohol at an event needs the right licence: a premises licence at the venue, or a Temporary Event Notice. We go through the licensing with you before the day. On the menu are margaritas, soft drinks and agua de jamaica, and it suits staff parties and end-of-year parties.
In a rural spot like Green Park, drinks can be served from our food truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, given access. Licensing for alcohol is checked with you beforehand. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

Planning the bar
To get the most from the bar, it helps to:
- Tell us how many guests are under 18
- Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers

- Plan transport home for guests
There are always alcohol-free options.
Add our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos.
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. At midsummer, it is light in Green Park until about 9:25pm, ideal for drinks outdoors. In late September it is dark around 7:10pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We check the licensing with you.
- You choose the drinks with us.
- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
- We pack down when the bar closes.

Green Park: venues, access and licensing

Green Park is one of 34 places in Reading where we can bring Mexican bar hire.
If the service is at a church such as St Paul's Church, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Older venues around Green Park may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before you book.
