Working with your venue

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

If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Should I do it myself?

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.

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

How the day works

Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. By late September, sunset in Maypole 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.

  1. Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
  2. We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
  3. You get a suggested drinks menu and 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.

Before we arrive

  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
  • Tell us what power and water the site has
  • Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

FAQs for Maypole

Which station is closest to Maypole?

The closest is Knockholt station, roughly 0.7 miles away.

Could you serve our guests after a service at Mission Chapel?

Yes. The church itself is not 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.

Will someone run the bar?

Bar staff are part of the service, and serve throughout the agreed hours.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

Do you do margaritas?

Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll check the licensing with you.

How long do you serve for?

We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.

Do you give allergen information?

Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
