FAQs for Lower Farringdon
How far is Lower Farringdon from central London?
It is about 47 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
We are having a ceremony at Church of All Saints: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
What does Mexican bar hire cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Do you need electricity?
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.
Do you have alcohol-free drinks?
There are always alcohol-free options, including aguas frescas and soft drinks.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Hampshire included. See all areas.
Should I do it myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
How we price Mexican bar hire
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- The length of service
- Serving staff
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

- Roughly how many adults and children
- Your menu ideas
- Where the event is
