Your questions about Mexican bar hire in North Ockendon
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Mary Magdalene: can you cater afterwards?
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.
Which station should guests use for North Ockendon?
The closest is Ockendon station, roughly 1.5 miles away.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Can you come to a private house?
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 clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What’s on the drinks menu?
Margaritas and Mexican beer, with aguas frescas like horchata and agua de jamaica, plus alcohol-free choices.

For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
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.
What Mexican bar hire costs
These are the factors that matter most:
