How our Mexican bar hire works in Newington

The margarita is the star of the bar: lime, tequila and orange liqueur, served cold, with or without a salted rim. For client events and launches and wedding drinks receptions, we’ll put together a menu of agua de jamaica, horchata and soft drinks and more.

A drinks bar makes a party in Newington easy and sociable. Let us know about access and power. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

What happens on the day

On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. At midsummer, it’s light in Newington until about 9:15pm, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. By late September, sunset is about 7:00pm, and in December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting around the bar.

  1. Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
  2. We check the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
  3. We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
  4. On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
  5. After service, we clear the bar away.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Tell us what power and water the site has

Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?

Running your own bar means checking licensing, stock and staff yourself. We talk through licensing and provide bar staff. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican bar hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

Why us?

  • Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
  • Fast service, even with a queue
  • Everything served fresh from the hatch
  • Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Newington

How far is Newington from central London?

It is about 65 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

What’s the nearest station to Newington for guests?

Ramsgate station, about 0.7 miles south-east of the centre.

Can you serve in the rain?

We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.

Can we have the bar on its own?

You can. Book the bar on its own, or with our Mexican catering.

What food and drinks do you offer?

We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.

Who handles the licensing?

That depends on your venue. If the venue has no licence, a Temporary Event Notice may be needed. We’ll talk licensing through with you.

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.

How is the food prepared?

We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

How we price Mexican bar hire

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • Guest numbers
  • Whether you add a drinks bar or food
  • Parking and the route in

A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

What we need to know

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • The venue or postcode
  • A picture of where we’d park
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • Your menu ideas

Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.

Should I do it myself?

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Working with your venue

For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
