What affects the price in Monkhams
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How many staff you need
- Parking and the route in
- What the venue already provides
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

For a quote, it helps to have:
- The date and time of the event
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field

Drinks planning tips
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Have plenty of water available
- Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers
- Serve food alongside the drinks
- Check allergies with guests, including for drinks
Allergen information is available for every drink.
Ask us about glassware or cups and we’ll confirm the options with your quote.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Where the truck can go in Monkhams
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Details of power and water on site
- A premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice in place
- Somewhere to park and unload nearby
In Monkhams, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

A Mexican drinks bar in Monkhams: local tips
Monkhams is about 1 mile north of Woodford, in Greater London. From the centre of Monkhams to the outskirts, Mexican bar hire works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Monkhams is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Monkhams to London (about 10 miles away).
Older venues around Monkhams may restrict vehicles and outside drinks service, so confirm what’s allowed before you book. Serving alcohol in The Highams Park would need the owner’s permission and probably a licence, so a garden or venue is often simpler.
Here we cover the IG8, IG9 and E4 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. Your event could be at a home on Oak Lane, Wood Lane and Mill Lane or the roads around them. You’ll find Monkhams on the A121, so it is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. We also serve at events in Woodford Wells (1 mile east), Friday Hill (1 mile west), Woodford (1 mile south), Chingford Hatch (1 mile west) and Waltham Forest (1 mile north). Within a short drive, we also cover London (10 miles south-west), City of Westminster (10 miles south-west), Marylebone (10 miles south-west), Kensington (13 miles south-west), St Pancras (9 miles south-west) and Shoreditch (8 miles south-west).
A little further out are Claybury Hospital (2.1 miles south-east) and 17 & Central (3.1 miles south-west). The countryside around Monkhams includes Highams Park Lake and Pole Hill.
- Schools near Monkhams include Trinity Catholic High School (under half a mile west) and Woodford Green Preparatory School (0.6 miles south)
- Nearby, you’ll find The Monkhams pub (0.8 miles east)
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Buckhurst Hill East (1.1 miles north-east)
Mexican bar hire or something else?
A self-service drinks table is simple but can run dry or go warm. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
Why us?
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Menus chosen with you
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
Read how we price and our guide to catering costs.
Should I do it myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
How the day works
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. By late September, sunset in Monkhams comes at roughly 7:05pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:50pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that’s the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Monkhams: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Monkhams for guests?
Highams Park station, about 1.2 miles south-west of the centre.
Is it possible to have you in The Highams 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 will send what they need from us.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
How much does Mexican bar hire cost in Monkhams?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you cover Monkhams?
Yes, we do. Monkhams is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
