Mexican bar hire in Herne Hill

Mexican bar hire for your event in Herne Hill

There are always alcohol-free drinks on the bar, so drivers and non-drinkers are not left with tap water. At themed celebrations and client events and launches, we can serve Mexican beer, horchata and margaritas.

In Herne Hill, a drinks bar suits courtyard receptions, office parties and evening events. Parking and loading need planning, as with any London event. If alcohol is being served, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Where the truck can go in Herne Hill

Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:

  • Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
  • The venue’s permission for an outside bar
  • Vehicle access near the bar

As a London location, Herne Hill 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 will advise before you book.

Popular choices

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

For planners, venues and organisers

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Herne Hill

Could you serve in Belair Park?

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 Herne Hill?

North Dulwich station, in Herne Hill itself.

How much is a food truck for an event?

We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

What happens if it rains?

We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.

What drinks do you serve?

Margaritas and Mexican beer, with aguas frescas like horchata and agua de jamaica, plus alcohol-free choices.

Why choose Mexican bar hire in Herne Hill?

Our caterer checklist

What happens on the day

Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. By late September, sunset in Herne Hill comes at roughly 7:05pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:50pm.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the licensing with you.
  3. You choose the drinks with us.
  4. Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
  5. We pack down when the bar closes.

How to prepare

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
