  • Tell us when the bar should open and close
  • Ask your venue about its licence early

Allergen information is available for every drink.

How it works

We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. Winter receptions in Newtown Common are dark by about 4:00pm in December, so plan where guests will gather, and how it will be lit. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. We check availability.
  2. We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
  3. We agree where the bar goes.
  4. The bar opens at the agreed time.
  5. We tidy up at the end.

How to prepare

  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

Getting a price

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send a quick message through our quote form.

Newtown Common: your questions answered

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary and St John the Baptist?

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.

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Sandleford Priory?

Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.

Do you do drinks only?

Yes, though it pairs well with tacos. Our Mexican catering can be added too.

Do you cater in Newtown Common?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Newtown Common is within our area. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.

Do you check ages at the bar?

Our bar staff serve responsibly: alcohol-free drinks for under-18s, and we offer water and alcohol-free choices throughout.

Can you cater in a back garden?

It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.

Do you cook on site?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
