Book Mexican bar hire in Nine Elms

Nine Elms: your questions answered

Could you serve in Pimlico Gardens?

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’ll send what they need from us.

Can you cater a reception after a service at All Saints?

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. Send us the reception address.

How big an event can you cater?

Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.

What drinks do you serve?

Margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We plan the list with you.

Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?

We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.

How long do you serve for?

That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.

Where do you cater?

London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.

Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?

That depends on your venue. If the venue has no licence, a Temporary Event Notice may be needed. We will check the licensing with you.

Mexican bar hire in Nine Elms, served fresh

Aguas frescas are Mexico’s fresh fruit and flower drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re a good alcohol-free choice for everyone. For launch parties and company summer parties, we can serve aguas frescas, horchata and soft drinks and more.

In Nine Elms, a drinks bar suits courtyard receptions, office parties and evening events. As with any London event, parking and loading need planning. We’ll check the licensing with you and your venue. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

How to compare caterers

Can I do a taco night myself?

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

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.

Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?

A self-service drinks table is simple but can run dry or go warm. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. 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.

How the day works

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. At midsummer, it is light in Nine Elms until about 9:20pm, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:05pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We talk through licensing with you.
  3. You choose the drinks with us.
  4. Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
  5. We pack down when the bar closes.

How to prepare

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

Prices and what affects them

We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:

  • Serving staff
  • Food, drinks or both
  • How many guests we are serving
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

Getting an accurate quote

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

  • A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
  • The date and rough timings
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
  • Roughly how many adults and children

It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.

Planners, venues and businesses

Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it is a good fit.

Drinks planning tips

A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:

  • Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers
  • Collect allergy details in advance
  • Allow time for a Temporary Event Notice if one is needed
  • Pair the bar with hot food

When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.

Aguas frescas for children and non-drinkers.

Planning the serving area

Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:

  • The right licence for alcohol: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice
  • Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
  • Somewhere to park and unload nearby

Nine Elms is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
