Mexican bar hire for your event in Richmond
Aguas frescas are light, fruity drinks: agua de jamaica made with hibiscus, horchata, tamarind and fruit waters. They’re a good alcohol-free choice for everyone. At licensed festivals and company summer parties, we can serve aguas frescas, horchata and margaritas for your guests.
In Richmond, a drinks bar suits courtyard receptions, office parties and evening events. As with any London event, parking and loading need planning. If alcohol is being served, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Drinks bars for events in Richmond
Richmond is about 5 miles south-west of Kensington, in Greater London. Events in Richmond are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We cover all 764 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Richmond to London (about 9 miles away).
Around Richmond, historic houses include Pembroke Lodge (1 mile south) and Ham House (1 mile south-west). Before booking a historic venue, find out whether it lets an outside bar bring a vehicle on site. If the service is at a church such as The Vineyard Church, the bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.
We serve at events all over the TW9, TW1 and TW10 postcode area. We can cater an event on streets such as Kew Road, Dee Road and Park Road or the roads around them. Other places close to Richmond for Mexican bar hire include Petersham (1 mile south), St Margarets (1 mile west), Eel Pie Island (1 mile south-west), Ham (1 mile south) and Isleworth (2 miles north-west). Further out, we also cater in London (9 miles east), City of Westminster (8 miles north-east), Marylebone (8 miles north-east), Kensington (5 miles north-east), St Pancras (9 miles north-east) and Shoreditch (11 miles north-east).

Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Firm, level ground where we can set up
- A bar spot away from homes
- Somewhere to park and unload nearby
Richmond 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.
On the menu in Richmond
- Soft drinks
- Fruit aguas frescas
- Margaritas

Working with your venue
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Richmond? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.

How we price Mexican bar hire
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- How many staff you need
- What’s on the menu
- What the venue already provides
- The length of service
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- The date and rough timings
- Expected numbers
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Diets and allergies you know about
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
Drinks planning tips
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Plan water alongside the bar
- Ask guests about allergies
- Tell us how many guests are under 18
- Allow time for a Temporary Event Notice if one is needed
We serve responsibly: no alcohol for under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
A welcome margarita as guests arrive, licensing permitting.
Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Richmond
Where would you park in Richmond?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Vineyard Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
How much does the drinks bar cost?
Every bar is quoted for individually, based on numbers, drinks and hours. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
Alcohol at an event needs the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We check the licensing with you before the day. See GOV.UK for Temporary Event Notices.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
What can we have at the bar?
Margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. The drinks list is agreed with you.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
How it compares
Some bars offer little for non-drinkers. Aguas frescas give them something special. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

The process
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and get on with serving. Evening drinks in Richmond stay light until about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, which suits an outdoor bar. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.

- We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
