Mexican bar hire in Mottingham
Where the truck can go in Mottingham
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- The venue’s permission for an outside bar
- A premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice in place
- A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late
In Mottingham, 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Mottingham questions
We’re having a ceremony at Jubilee International Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
What’s the nearest station to Mottingham for guests?
Grove Park station, about 0.7 miles west of the centre.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
How much does Mexican bar hire cost in Mottingham?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Contact us for a quote.
Mexican bar hire or something else?
Wine and fizz are classic but expected. A Mexican bar feels relaxed and different. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What we offer in Mottingham
- Every guest catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included

- A clear quote
- Book food, drinks or both
Read our prices page or the cost guide.
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.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
