How our Mexican bar hire works in Plaistow

Pair the bar with our Mexican catering for tacos, burritos and nachos, so food and drinks come from one booking. It works well for end-of-year parties and client events and launches, with horchata, Mexican beer and agua de jamaica.

A Mexican drinks bar works well for receptions and parties in Plaistow. Parking and loading need planning, as with any London event, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. If alcohol is being served, we will check the licensing with you and your venue. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.

Space, access and the venue

Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Permission from the venue or landowner
  • The right licence for alcohol: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice
  • Firm, level ground where we can set up

In Plaistow, 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 you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Popular choices

  • Agua de jamaica (hibiscus)
  • Mexican beer
  • Fruit aguas frescas
  • Soft drinks
  • Horchata
  • Margaritas

Step by step

Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Evening drinks in Plaistow stay light until about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, which suits an outdoor bar. String lights or lanterns near the hatch make a later bar easier to find.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. We talk licensing through with you.
  3. We agree a drinks menu.
  4. We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
  5. We clear the bar at the end.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
  • Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Ask for a quote

DIY taco night versus a caterer

Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Plaistow

Could you serve our guests after a service at St Mary’s Church?

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.

Is it possible to have you in Downham Fields?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.

Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?

It depends on the venue. Some venues have a premises licence; others need a Temporary Event Notice. We talk it through with you.

Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?

Always. No alcohol is served to under-18s, and anyone who has had too much won’t be served more.

What does Mexican bar hire cost?

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.

Where do you cater?

We cater across London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
  • Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
